The one thing that always bugged me about the lupora is how similar the ado/adult male and female stances were. When they first were released, i mixed the two up in battle a lot, since they pose so similarly and face the same direction.

I feel they could be a bit more dynamic with the gender differences is all! even just putting one's tail in the front instead of the back would help.

If you're willing to consider bigger changes, may i suggest moving the female head up a little, in a more prideful stance; while the male is maybe more poised for prowling, head dipped and taking a step forward? or this could be cool too!

honestly though, they do look gorgeous already, i just am tossing out an idea but if its way too much to ask for, then i totally understand!

I addition I think the Adult female Should keep a similar head pose to the pre-revamp females, It not only gives her neck back, but it also gives her a bit more personality (which is the problem many of us have with the current males) As for the Male's expression which I have seen many people comment on. I think having him show some teeth, or be a bit more growly, would help him not look so sulky. Personally I'm one of the players that wouldn't mind seeing a little longer body, bigger elf like ears and what not on the Lups, And Bending them more may just fix the Tail vs leg issue.... Here are some sketches I did that Incorporated a longer body and more movement and expression based off of the already done sketches. Tottaly forgot to add the refrance I used for the males pose in the upward position like that so here it is ^.^ https://neara-works.deviantart.com/art/Angry-Wolf-Contortion-Free-LineArt-363714862 though I drew him a bit more toward the ground I think It might look even better if I switched the positins of the two front legs. I feel these also show both tail and leg genes evenly and in a way that gives them both expression in their stance/ pose. I know these are not all that great as far as sketches, but I feel they get the point across. Added Some less dynamic sketches and a set I cam up with doodling In this one I changed the Male pose to crouching And showed it with the others to get a feel for how it changed And her are the doodles of the two adults in a more proud posture (sorry again for the awful drawing XD)

Edit: added less dynamic poses, Feed back welcome the last poses look a little funky as I'm to lazy Rn to redraw legs so I repourposed the males XD

just because we can and nobody is around who would or could stop us, we wandered onto the 'let's just draw lupora' train



I think it didn't properly register until I was doing these that the current revamp sketches? don't have what I consider the Lupora mohawk-crest-hairdo... thing?(tm) and that makes us kinda sad.
