Ref - Cassie

New character :] I had her design in mind for the longest time. Finally decided to show her. Sorry the drawing is so rough and nasty. I'm still practicing and working on establishing a style, so things won't really be neat and polished for a while.

One thing I forgot to mention on the ref is that her coat isn't just gray with stripes. If the art is realistic, it's probably important to point out that her undercoat is tan.. meaning, if you push her fur backwards towards her head, it's tan.. not gray. If you want to get really nitpicky, the roots are that dark gray / black-ish color. So really, one strand of fur is three colors when examined from all angles.

And.. I used a few random shepherd pictures as refs. Not sure exactly which ones :3
