an old fursona concept that i Immediately Dropped LOL
but i was like "wait jackatiger is a sick concept i wanna revisit that" so i did.
what crazy growth, right?! the design approach is totally different!
i guess when i was learning to draw humans semi-realistically, it definitely leaked into my furry style.

though
i just went back to find that link, and i also found this

a jackaliger, from a month before the original rufus was drawn
..i guess it wasn't such a big change in approach after all. LOL
