AU Were Siri concept / AU Thoughts

Was going to do this HUGE personal message on this post but let's just get to the niddy-griddy and none of the sappy stuff ^^;

This is a little thing I've had brewing in my head in between working on rewards and commissions, surprising given my habit of just neglecting any personal thoughts as of late. 

The idea of putting my characters in alternate universe situations has passed my mind quite a few times in the past, especially when I watched "Boy and the Beast" for the  first time. While I do enjoy my characters the way I have them in current universe I have them in, I do feel like I could do more with exploring new ideas with that. Especially since a fair amount of ideas I have for them involve either a different setting from what I normally have them in, or just stuff about that I like current but feel like they would fit in a more fantasy or sci-fi esque situation. 

I don't really read a lot of fantasy and sci-fi books, so a lot of my inspiration comes from anime/cartoons, manga and video games for the most part, which are valid options, for sure. A lot of furry artists have definitely been inspiration in their own way for me, of course. Also I enjoy just seeing just how races, and even individuals work within a community or world. 

The biggest inspirations I've been having as of late were when I watched "Boy and the Beast" and it's Jutengai dimension, and playing a lot of Final Fantasy XV and X-2, with Avatar: The Last Airbender definitely being a big idea spring for me. Seeing "Boy and the Beast" definitely sparked most of my ideas, hell its what made me really jump at making Sirius' adoptive father, Pengsong the Foo Dog, and a lot of the early moments of the movie made me imagine those two together and then....somehow I could think of all of my characters popping up in various instances throughout and AFTER the movie. 

Then, with this recent spell of messed up sleep schedules and waking up MUCH earlier than intended, I started trying to draw in the mornings a bit before working, or just work. This is what popped up on Tuesday XD. It's SIRIUS, in his Were Form (also I haven't really done much with indicating it since I'm working on his markings still.) Given his werewolf roots and special powers, the idea of him in a fantasy setting was just too good to pass up. 

I'm thinking of mixing up tribal styles with stuff I've seen from those inspirations, as well as clothing ideas I've seen from artists. The pants were based off of @gomsnim 's designs on Twitter (love their stuff), and the sash/loincloth combo was inspired by Kimahri's from FFX. I always enjoy thick guys with sashes or sarongs or just clothes that work around the pelvis and midsection of the body, especially on more animalistic types of characters. (for more than a few reasons  ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ) . As for his weapon, he still has a big ass hammer, just want to tweak it some more, although I kinda like the more "mallet" design over the "block" I tend to use for him. 

but enough gabbing. Sorry ^^; Enjoy! hope to post up more on this later.!
