Proud Leader - Anthro-Kiba

I wasn't very attached to my Chibi-Wolf's Rain series in my salad days, so I started something a bit new in regards to AnthroCon and the furry fans Part of my Anthro-themed Wolf's Rain collection: Kiba.

Initially, I started with this one, since he's... well, the leader

Trying to find my grounds on how to color this, what style to do it, what mood to give it, and whether I was up to the madness or not. Even used some old tricks I once did a million years ago while I was starting out DA and Photoshop. There were some tutorials on DA on how to do fur, but I wanted to try my own adaptation. Still looked through 'em to see which one seems more... easier to use I was feeling lazy...

Note: I've not watched the entire series to the end, since I know BONES' reputation for character deaths. However, my sister is very fond of the story, as well as the soundtrack (which I still gotta listen to me'self, being a Yoko Kanno fan) So credit goes to sis for color theme suggestions.
