- Here's the next in my series of experiments with color and skunks. This was started as a pencil sketch, scanned and then painted in Painter for an oil paint appearance. Character Crimson copyright the artist.
- Elaine, dressed for a party. Another scan from my sketchbook. Elaine Delacourt © the artist.
- I scanned some of my furry items from my sketchbook. Here's an early sketch of Elaine, just after I'd figured out how her hair should look. Elaine Delacourt © the artist.

- Here's a warrior cat-girl, drawn in a somewhat different style for me. I was trying for a more animation style for the coloring, and a more human face than I normally present.
- Ivy is the first of a series of experimental colorful skunks. This character is completely different and separate from Joe Rosales' skunk named "Ivy"! Ivy McNaughton (C) the artist.
- Ink drawing of Kimintar. A powerful sorceress, her specialty is fire magic. Kimintar © the artist.
- This is Laura, Lisa's twin sister. As you might guess from Laura's military garb, the two have followed very different paths in life. This has made for some conflicts.
- This is Liila. She's a good friend of Geibriian, and very good with a sword. Liila © her player.
- When I posted the picture of the lynx priestess, I said she didn't have a name. I guess I was wrong. Another sketch in the sketchbook named her as "Lisa". Lisa the lynx © the artist.

- Wow! I'm away for a while and the whole place is redone. Looks wonderful! Thought I should contribute something to celebrate. This is Nuriin, a tri-colored Asian squirrel. Hope to do some color pictures of her to really show off her coat.
