A bit of personal work and an experiment with lighting. I love drawing fur and hair in backlight and seeing the shape of the figure showing through! It's such a pretty effect. Here is my attempt at it with an Azaroth, specifically a Tatharath.
The silky "Tazi" fur is inspired by horse manes, human hair and the fur of afghan hounds.

Ah, this is splendid! :clap: This Azaroth looks so mysterious and ethereal with the light shining on it from behind, and its pale fur and blue eyes only add to the effect.



Such long and silky fu has an interesting texture indeed – I admit I was so used to Azaras’ and Azaroths’ fluffy and/or thick pelts, that it was strange to see how thin and long this fellow’s neck is! :o
