Finally, after two years I have a new reference sheet for my fursona. I’ve been getting away with that old ugly piece of tripe for far too long! Hopefully this one is more readable and clear.

I’ve thinking about my fursona a lot lately and how I would like her represent me. I did some “soul searching” and found she represents me very well. So, her over all design hasn’t changed, just minor things, and add ons like her mane of fire. On the last ref sheet I put that her element was fire, but never stated any powers she had. So one night, I had this dream, where I saw her with a flaming mane. I thought it was so cool, that I had to add it to her. She has other fire powers that I may illustrate later. I also looked up cat breeds, because balinese did not fit the way I draw her. I found that the Russian Blue was a better fit. I also found that Shoeshoes are a separate and rare breed. Shoeshoe cats are a mix between Siamese and American Shorthair breeds. For Showsone breed history click here and for the breed profile click here So she is mostly Snowshoe, but with some Tonkinese and Russian Blue in the mix.

Here are pictures of the breeds of cats that make up her appearance and body type: [link]
Here is a picture of a snowshoe that is close to Dekeve’s color scheme: [link]

Of course however, I took some artistic license with her design, so it is not totally breed accurate. I’m a rare breed after all! =]
