I present to you, my fursona Cyan Thornclaw! I've been working on this since about November IIRC. This is something I've wanted to do for a long time as I did make a refsheet way back years ago, but it's not really anything like what I imagine for the character anymore.
The refsheet as a whole is far from finished and still WIP, but I think it's worth showing off the front and back after many iterations, and with them being close to done and of course they will be the central elements of the refsheet.
I did it unclothed and added the clothes after, but would rather upload the clothed version as that's how they're more likely to be seen! Cyan's also pretty vanilla as far as markings go, so there's not that much to see underneath, aside from some curves ๐ณ
I put an absurd amount of time into trying to match the proportions on the front and back and keep everything aligned, this also breaks the record for the largest image dimensions I've worked with, each side is on a 3959x6714 canvas, all made with the usual Paint.NET and trusty mouse.
This also shows off the overall aesthetic I'm going for, I tried to replicate the old metalheart 3D render aesthetic in a Garry's Mod map screenshot (since I can't do 3D modelling lol), and combine it with bold colors that inspired by Designers' Republic stuff. Seems to work so far, but time will tell if it looks too busy or loud when I include everything else in the ref - right now I'm not even sure what that will be.
