Very nice sketches! I'm interested to see where you'll take this concept . She seems like she'll be a pretty fun character. 
Design sketches are pretty interesting. Keep it up!
Thank you. I'm trying to have fun with her as a design as well. I hope it shows through in the end.
Thanks. My next batch will include some clothing designs and body proportion explorations. I hope they stay interesting for my sake as well.
Attire exploration with body proportions. I'm still having a hard time settling on the body itself. The trickster god was considered very sensual but a coyote is also very agile. So I'm not sure if to use a tall, voluptuous form (adult) or a teen's more agile one instead. I also added a child version too. Maybe I'll use all three. I explored about four closing options on all of them. I can always mix and match once I settle on the body. All forms will include a braid in her hair to symbolize the coyote tail.
Here's a quick update. I'm getting closer to refining the image. I'm leaning in to the more voluptuous version but...that can still change. I like the little "cub" version from my previous round
In this new round, I included a skirt and bandana similarly used by the tarahumara indians (my grandmother was considered part tarahumara and the tribe/people are known to be long distance runners).
I am digging no.3 design!! 
Here is a quick doodle of my new main squeeze...I have a tendency of falling for my girl characters lol. Anyway, its just a quick upper bust shot with some color added in the second pick. I'll be using the second one to create a color palette. I'm not certain where I want to go with this. I think I feel she should have a darker complexion (though the Aztecs seemed to believe gods are white in skin color) and I definitely want to stay away from the red hair that is usually associated with foxes. She's a coyote and needs to look wild and savage sometimes, or perhaps aloof. Plus, if she's like the Curse of Capistrano, she needs to be able to hide herself in the dark (although most gods associated with Tezcatlipoca's smoke mirror can conceal themselves as part of their raw talent.)
One more drawing for end of today. Coyotl is a trickster, shapeshifter and full of sensuality (fertility? lol) so I have some alternative outfits for her. Plus she's supposed to be a Zorro/Robin Hood type. I couldn't get a mask to work but I think the "poncho" and "paliacate" (bandana) might help hide her a bit. I need to go back and design her animal form and god form as well. This character is getting complex
I really like the bandana and the cloak. They go well with the Zorro/Robin Hood type. How are you gonna represent all of her forms (animal, god) in the final illustration ? Dagger + Whip! That's interesting!!
Lthank you so much for taking a look. I’m glad that her “disguise” reveals the influence. I really don’t know how I’m going to show her shape shifting and alternate forms. I’m probably going to have to do something similar to the way speedsters and acrobats are shown in the same frame of a comic book: that is ghosted images.o
Went back to the different outfits, and tried and fourth and final one. The Feral form I'm thinking will serve more as a "god mode" for the character. She will no longer be able to rationally think or feel. Pure instinct. Also, no one will know her by her full name (huehuecoyotl means elder or very old god) only coyote. Probably her full name will or can be used against her to return her to mictlan or to one of her more docile forms. Not sure yet. But I'm also trying to think how I'm going to illustrate her as a shapeshifter. I think I need to add her coyote form as well. Probably all for today. I forgot my laptop charger and my computer is about to go ....... lol.
Digging the sketches, I think you are on the right path with the Trickster/bandit setup for the costume.
As far as sensuality/fertility, maybe consider increasing the size of the hips and decreasing the bust size proportionately. Wide hips tend to be more associated with fertility at a base level in the human mind, so you might get more of a primal response out of that.
And I do love your story concept of the two talking to each other but not getting to interact at all due to being kinda the same person, that would indeed be a very fun story to read.
Hey thanks for the suggestions. I’ll definitley put them into practice on the next go around. Apparently the god Huehuecóyotl was really primal in terms of sexuality and not just my original understanding of fertility. Thanks again!
Awesome, really looks like you are zeroing in on it now. .... copics are soooo fun
Copics are soooooo awesome. Only ever had the prismacolor basics and grey tones. I figured I'd buy those blending trio packs...so much better for the poor artist. lol I could color with those markers forever. I wish I had an endless supply. As much fun as doing work digitally. I just can't seem to draw and ink fast enough to get to the fun part of coloring.
I'm having a lot of fun zeroing in on the character. I'm thinking a tail now and some moccasins so that she can kick off and run on all fours from time to time. And definitely use black or a dark dark brown for her "bandit trickster" look. One of the things that I really enjoyed from Batman the animated series was the episode where batman is in the desert hunting for ra's al ghul (sp) he had a brown variation of his costume.
