My new character, Gabriel or just Gabe/Gabie (continuing my trend with unisex, unusual/unpopular names). She's part sugar glider and fennec and she's a funky nature-loving neo-hippie art student girl and a vegetarian with a strong penchant for fruit (sugar glider).

To clarify, she has dreadlocks which she dyed a few times and have grown out (the grey is her natural colour). She mostly lets her dreads do their own thing aside from basic maintaince, but keeps her bangs trimmed and died and that's really all she does in terms of body mods and vanity. Otherwise she’s all about function and comfort. Which explains that frock, or whatever it is she’s wearing (in the fourth image). It makes her look frumpy even though she’s pretty skinny, but she likes to be comfortable. ...None of these look very good looking back, drat. I'm thrilled I included an actual background in the last one but dismayed at how I rendered it.

These were drawn during spring/summer.

Pen, Prismacolour markers, & coloured pencil, all on 8.5x11" printer paper (the last image is a full page but the rest don't come close).
