Description This is a brand new design for my very first Sonic FC! Originally she was an Echidna, but I changed her to a Pen Tailed Tree Shew. She's almost nothing like her original design anymore, the only things that are the same are her fur color, and the treble look she has. I think she's really cool now! I just need to work on a background for this pic now... I may use her in Something... But she needs a bio first.

Name of character: Romana the Tree Shrew
Species: Pen Tailed Tree Shrew
Good, evil, or neutral: Good... Mostly...
Personality: She acts a lot like a youn boy, Spunky and playful, she loves nature and climbing trees. She can be very hasty and a bit of a bone head sometimes. She's alwyas getting into trouble. She's suborn and a bit bitchy at people, but it's natural for a shew. She cares little of what people think of her.
Special abilities: A good shot with a bow and arrow, she's also very fast. She can drink as much alcohol as she wants, but do to her natural ability as a pen tailed tree shew she never gets drunk
Brief bio: She grew up in the woods with her shrew family, who lived in a three house. She learned to hunt, climb, and survive in the wild. One day a flash fire broke out, and they where forced to flee their home, Romana was separated from then in the smoke. She then learned how to live on her own and moved to the mystic ruins, where she became friends with some of the explorers and started helping them excavate. She eventually she found her family, but wanted to stay with her knew friends and life in the jungle, but promised to keep in contact.

So if you have any suggestions for her back story please let me know!

What a refreashing change.

The native cloth and feather dressing is ell mde. The fact that her tail looks almost leaf like would make her good for ambushing others. Trying to do the same to her would pose a challange with her ears as bis as they are.

Going over the info given on her, not one to challange to a drinking contest. But she would seem to be stubbenly NΓ―vΓ―e and rather tempramental about such thing.

Over all a great FC, and I'm thankful that she didn't end up as an echidna, the Tree Shrew is more suited for her.

This really caught my eye. Like, it really stood out from the other 40 deviations I got in the last hour. lol.

Gotta love that green fur, you don't see very many FC's with that fur color. The idea of a tribal characeter is also interesting, and stands out. This girl looks very unique. The clothing choice, the fur detail on her feet, her hair and ear design. Even the end of her tail, all a unique design e.deviantart.net/emoticons/h/h… " width="15" height="13" alt="" title="Heart"/>

The coloring came out looking smooth, as did the outlining. Her pose is realistic, as in it doesn't look funky lol. The highlights and shading also look great e.deviantart.net/emoticons/m/m… " width="15" height="15" alt="" title="Meow :3"/>

In all, a very unique character, and I'm sure she'll have an interesting backstory and bio. Great job friend! e.deviantart.net/emoticons/d/d… " width="21" height="15" alt="" title="I am a dummy!"/>

Wow! REALLY unique species, nice character design, very un-Sue bio, GREAT handle on the Sega style! The only thing I would suggest is to give her even just a little eyelash - I understand she's a tomboy, but from this angle she looks a little more masculine than you may prefer...

Thanks! And if you look at her newer image you can tell better her gender (She still has no lash, but her upper lash line is thicker)and there is no confusion with her body type. I like her without the lash, I don't really see anything wrong with a character looking masculine in some ways, if fits for her. Hell, the character in my Avi is a boy, I made him pink! I don't care so much about that!

Wow. Romana Really stood out. I really wish the pose was different so i could see her outfit better, But I'll still try. ^_^
I applaud you for not contributing to the massive pool of Echidna hedgehog and Fox FC's that are constantly popping up. I have Never seen a Tree shrew in my life, but the Fact that you made her a Tree shrew is Very Original. ( and they actually have a Tail like that too. XD)

First thing that threw me Off. Its a She. I'm not saying "all girls have lashes" but, a little hint would be nice. Perhaps even a thicker line on the edges of her eye so she doesn't look like a Wild boy?

Very nice Tribal look. I see you stuck with Earth and leaf colors. And it the color balances itself out nicely. and the Shade of skin that you gave her on her muzzle and feet is a nice change.

I really would like to hear her Back story, It looks like it will be quite interesting.

Thank you so much! Ya I'm going to be making her a ref sheet here soon (I'm doing that with most of my characters) So there will be more info on her when I get it up, as well as front shots. I think she goes to show that you can change a characters animal and not have it be a bad thing.

Ya I see what you mean by the thick lash thing, I didn't even realize she didn't have any until you pointed it out. Thought I think her curvy body is enough of a give away as it is, I may give her some lash in alter art of her.

The darker skin was soemthing I wanted since she would be out in the sun all the time, it is also more similar to the jungle tribes of our world. Thank you again!
