ANE Badges [WIP]

GIANT POST for the first of February, woohoo! 

Pumped out a bunch of sketches of the ANE badge orders I took this week. Want to get these done ASAP so I can move onto my February queue and work on tackling this giant workload I've set myself up with, haha xD Some people had very specific poses so I didn't bother offering them too many options, where as some people left it more in the open for me so I tried out multiple poses! A lot of these guys are new characters/clients that I'm certainly looking forward to meeting at the con when I deliver them all (: 

Bobby's was a lot of fun! He's got a really goofy potoo bird character, and those happen to my my absolute favourite bird species, so I was really thrilled to draw this guy, finally! He ended up going with option 'C' for his sexy sailor look ;D

Boobun! She offered to do a badge trade for ANE, which I totally couldn't refuse. I love her character so much, haha! Such a happy bundle of fluff. She ended up choosing 'B' for her badge (: 

Realized I forgot to add the name on this one, but this is Graith! They wanted some kind of northern huntress look for their saber/polar bear hybrid. Super interesting choice of species, by the way! It was fun incorporating both of those species into the facial features here. Anyway, haven't heard back from them yet, but hopefully it's good to move to inking!

Hunter! A pretty tiger lady! They wanted her to be either laughing or just about ready to tell a good joke. So they ended up picking 'B' for this one (:

Rezy!  Here's a familiar cat! This one was a fun one to whip up too. Cold Saber..clearly doesn't have most of his winter coat grown in just yet...better get on that, it's already February x'D 

Red and Steel Shep! These two were really fun to draw. The client wanted them dressed 17th century British colonial outfits looking very serious, and posed so that the badges can compliment each other. So I drew them as if they were standing side by side. All I could think of was Pirates of the Caribbean drawing these two x'D Anywho, I learned a lot studying the clothing and how each are different depending on the rank. So by looking at the number of buttons on these two, Red is clearly higher in rank, where as Steel is lower. Fun stuff! Option 'A' was approved for the both of them.
