Description This is the first time I draw Taro's body in detail... and I think it was necessary for me to do this, because Taro has a lot of interesting aspects that I need to develop.
Oooh Taro's legs are sooooo weiiird... I love them xD... as you can see, Taro's foot are pretty large, and that would be a problem if he runs... well, he doesn't need to run. When Taro needs to move fast, he just flies. His foot aren't very useful in that aspect, but they are very useful to fight. Taro is like a monkey, he can use his feet as if they were hands. I don't really have a good excuse for the shape of the legs... but for some reason, I think Taro must be really good jumping.
You may wonder... why is he so thin? Well... it's a funny story xD Do you know those dogs that are very thin and they also have a wide thorax? [ [link] ] (in spanish, the race is called "Galgo", I don't know if it's different in english) Yeah, I based Taro's torso on these dogs, that's why he's so thin (the funny thing is that at first, I made his body like that because I thought "He's a warrior, so big lungs would be great for him" but now that doesn't have much sence... Taro isn't a creature that needs to breathe, he's consantly wondering on space so... those supposedly big lungs are useless and don't even exist any longer xD) I'm not gonna change Taro's body even if he doesn't have lungs... never~ <3 (but I think I did change his legs a little bit here... just a little xD)

WHOA....galgas look so huge! XD I was imagining Taro more like a teeny tiny greyhound  en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greyhoun... hehehe.........whoa, okay, Google tells me that greyhounds are actually pretty huge as well! I wonder what kind of dog I was thinking of, then... XD;;; OHHH, apparently there are teeny tiny greyhounds!!  en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italian_... They're Italian Greyhounds, though. Apparently that makes them different. >w>


Alien anatomy is so interesting! I'm little disappointed that Taro's true face is not on here though....! XD

Hah, those dogs were my inspiration to make Taro's body like it is.

Ikr? Taro's true face... I only have the prototype right now... I want to make some modifications since he looks way too humanized and I don't really like that... probably the final version is going to be pretty humanized anyway, but at least I want to try other options :T

YAY~! Reference sheets!
Wow, Taro is really unique and cool~
Because he's all thin and spindly, he also reminds me of roots of a plant. XD

I should draw more of these reference sheets, but I'm not always in the mood xD
Ikr?~ <3 I'm so proud of him even if he's a pretty old character c:
xD I should draw him as a vegetable then, that'd be funny xD
