Wondeful badge by  Rika

Like I always tell my artists I told Rika to have fun with it and do it all her style, however she liked. I always tell my artists that I'll love anything they give me back and to just have fun with it and I always get back the generic smile pose. (Which is still cool, but doesn't feel like they are being free or having fun with it.)

Not Rika, I told her to be free and when she got artistic inspiration she ran with it. She saw my character pouting so drew the badge that way and she gave me a badge that I will cherish. My fursona is based on me, I take that basing seriously (mostly). Much as I hate to admit it I can very much see myself doing that. The badge simply resonates with me both in how it's drawn and the spirit behind it.

She had some tough competition from Ahnen, but this is definitely my favorite badge or piece of artwork so far. I'd keep it safe on display (and secret of course) but then I wouldn't be able to show it off and have others see it.

If you haven't already checked her out, check out Rika, she is a wonderful artist: http://www.furaffinity.net/user/rika/
