Busy with this character design

He is a young scandinavian / germanic boy, maybe 13 to 15 years of age, something like that.

I've given him my name, Jurgen. His surname is still a work in progress, but I am aiming for something like "Wolfson" or something that embodies the following qualities:
- Adventurous
- Fearless
- Using your head / mind / thought when brawn / physical strength is not enough
- Curious

This is a style test and concept for a character / creature in a story I'm working on
The previous image I posted yesterday is also part of the story so far.

The wolf in the previous image is named, "Bravo" and this creature / character is called "Rhaat".

I'm still working on backstory, Rhaat is one of a group of beings that used to live on a planet called, "Oer".
After a massive war between these beings on the planet Oer, Rhaat was exiled to a planet called, "Plotaar".
There, Rhaat began plotting revenge on all and everything.

I just have to say that I am enjoying the complete style shifts of the last few posts.

I love this one - its giving Marko Djurdjevic - Orken vibes.

Thankyou very much

I remember Orken from some time ago, really cool artwork and I see they are working on a game as well
Inspiring stuff!

I'm currently working on this one
It's a Fae knight so far.
