The Golden Red Guardian by ArtOfEmber7 on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

I drew it based on a 'Foo Dog', also known as Lion Dog or Stone Lion.

Please note that this isn't an attempt to draw a Foo Dog accurately, this design is just based on the Foo Dog. I don't really have deep knowledge of Foo Dogs, though I did research a bit. I know it's a guardian and the mythology is from China. I only have the urge to drew it after remembering some of the Foo Dogs' design from my life. I am aware that the story said the Foo Dog depict a lion rather than a dog, but for some reason, my mind decided to draw it closer to a canine rather than a lion, though I try to somewhat mix them both.

I might used this design for a character one day. For now, I have no plan for the design, I'm just trying out new design ideas and all, which suddenly pop up when I was practicing drawing architecture and working on the comic. Since I got some of my lineart style figured it out, I have been working on the line art of some pages so I can have them ready soon after the next page.

Anyway, that's all. The next page should be ready soon, I just wanna do more line art for the next few pages before working on the coloring. And I want to search for more character design ideas and draw them. I like doing character designs and making some stories and lores for them.
