I was going to wait to post the next batch of characters til after I finished all of them.
But finals are kicking my ass so here are the first two of said next batch. Once again if you have any characters you'd like to see just comment it! I'll be posting these batching probably in pairs then will be drawing bigger pieces <3
a MUCH NEEDED akita redesign. girl what is happening with your everything i am so sorry
referenced the images on the side! used for inspo actual inuit parkas and clothing, instead of whatever akita has going on (come on ninjago, seriously? a kitsune / ameterasu / okami design is fine and all, but when you try to make her native???? what are you on)
i kept some wolf ears on her hood though bc i thought it'd be cute :) i'm allowed to still add triangles to clothing
also! made her an older woman! because TOMMY AND I ARE CORRECT
this really isn't to throw shade at people who hc her as being a young adult or whatever but i am going to explode if people try to make her lloyd's age. akita is a middle aged woman because otherwise the timeline is completely fucked, and she can't just stay a "young adult" forever. i'm throwing hands /j
I’m going in alphabetical order based on the American kennel club plus my own dogs for their birthdays. I also wanna do historical dogs like Laika and Togo when those relevant dates come around.
We’ll find out how powerful my dog love is if I can get through drawing all 250+ dogs in the AKC.
Special little boy Jesse turned 1 back on March 17th. Yes he is named after Breaking Bad Jesse Pinkman and for those curious he’s a Australian Cattle Dog (aka Blue/Red Heeler) mixed with a Pembroke Welsh Corgi.
When you say you got that dog in you, except when you're actually a dog.
First two images are dog breeds that I feel fit for Phoenix, Miles, Maya and Franziska from Ace Attorney and the rest are more so their canine spirit where only Franziska's is true inside and out XD
(Even when I try to draw something simple to relax I end up making it into another project... ((Originally 5th image was my only original plan for a final piece...))
Phoenix Wright (Akita) (Alt Pomeranian)
-Japanese origin, loyal and courageous, looks adorable but also tough "I will defend my friends!" About same size as Doberman. (Yes his badge is a tennis ball)
Miles Edgeworth (Doberman) (Alt Afghan Hound)
-English origin, fierce yet eloquent looking, ears look like "demon" (prosecutor) horns, can be big softies to close family and friends.
Maya Fey (Japanese Spitz) (Alt Chihuahua)
-Japanese origin, cheerful, playful, intelligent, great companions.
Franziska Von Karma (German Shepherd)
-German origin (relating to American game version) but common with American work force (relating to Japanese game version), in government related work force, trained to be fierce and "perfect" for their job, intimidating, loyal.
