#1 Color vote, Lt Reed infiltrating the Lynx kingdom in disguise, suggested by Even!

I enjoyed painting the background for this. The architecture is an esthetic I really enjoy, but one I've never had the opportunity to draw before. And yes, the lynx are living in a desert oasis here. When I first drew the sketch I legit just... forgot lynxes in real life are usually from high altitude forests and snowy regions. XD Maybe TK lynxes are just different, or this is an offshoot tribe. Perhaps their big paws help with the soft shifting sands and the fluffy coats are for cold desert nights instead.

That's charming! And much as I liked the black-and-white version, the colours really seem to help bring out their personalities. :)

Prince Twynx is femboy made into royalty. All hail!

What a go-getter that Lt.Reed I'd. Five minutes in on her first infiltration mission and she already has the hand of the Lynx Prince. I guess her exotic Grey fur helped catch his eye. And as for those backgrounds with all the colors and ambient Lynx...just wonderful.

Marry the femboy prince this instant

Femboy lynx is a cutie! And Lt Reed looks amazing in her outfit!

lol the guard at the back with the green cloth covering his face!

I need a million more pics of the Lynx Prince. He's adorable... and very affectionate! I bet this is the way he greets all the pretty girls (and boys). Great job, Tom!

I imagine it's a see through cloth of some sort. Something that allows them to look around but no one can see their face to see what their looking at,and for intimidation. Like a pair of shades on a guard.

It occurs to me that this would be a Bad Time for the disguise to fail... ;-)

Being a sentient race, they can live wherever they want and adjust to the climate probably. Another artist has a fennec living quite well in a snow zone.

It can get very cold in deserts. But also; yes, large paws are beneficial in hot climates, to stay on top of the sands instead of sinking into them.

Your mother, bless her, she adjusted and we never had a boring day in all the time we had together. Go! Go talk to her, before she jumps out of her skin!!'

I rather get the impression he isn't fooled for a moment, and doesn't care... :)

i love how great everthing looks coloured and i love the small details aswell it still makes me want to visit

TrueWolves

That the lynx civilization has settled in the desert isn't very far-fetched. Deserts form in the rain shadows of mountains, and it could be with the development of agriculture that Lynx tribes settled more fertile desert locations instead of the jungle side of the mountains already claimed by larger feline tribes like the tigers. Isolated mountain tribes may still exist, or even mountain pilgrimages if the cultures are still connected.

A fine Voe is he not?😉

Iberian lynxes live in areas near some arid zones, and iberia had a huge muslim influence on its architecture, so i don't see why the places that lynx keidran lived couldn't have been influenced by some culture with islamic style architecture. (perhaps Caracals? which are a closely related family of cats)

Mark Temple

translucent cloth can look fairly opaque from a distance.

Ordithus

This turned out beautifully! Excellent work.

UltraFennec

Weeeelll there are Iberian Lynx in Spain, and bobcats live all over the US in different climates! So maybe they're closer to one of those. ^^

Trollman906

Same. Be honest all of the probably notice it and is going along with it

Kimberly Towle

I'm not getting the reference, sorry; to me, 'voe' is an obscure word for a narrow creek or inlet that's probably used these days only by Scrabble buffs. Explain?

There's Iberian lynxes on the Andalusian plains in Spain, which are quite arid! I thought this guy was a bobcat (desert for sure) due to the white underside of his tail. Lynxes have "ink dipped" tailtips, bobcats have a white underside. :)

This is one of Tom's most beautiful and detailed colours yet. I love everything about it.

Brocade

This is an absolutely gorgeous piece, and I’m not just talking about the Lynx prince!

My pet theory is that this is precisely the reason for interest. A mate who can give a lot more long lived kids, hunan keidran breeding restrictions being gone and all that.

Trollman906

Voe is the term the women of the Gerudo tribes call men/males.

Kaija

I can understand this Lynx Prince, Lynx-LtReed is really a beautifull woman !

KaiserDunk

What a way to ‘infiltrate’ the upper echelons of Lynx Keidran society!

Cassandra Bryan (Cassie)

Bobcats are part of the Lynx family and have quite a wide variety of habitats, so desert is not such a stretch at all!

Sons of Lorgar

Deserts are also not always tropical, just extremely dry.

The Sexy Beast

I seem to recall there being a desert in Alaska (Kobuk?)

Sons of Lorgar

There's also the Gobi desert, there are deserts in the Andes, and technically, the polar glaciers are deserts too since all the water is frozen and inaccessible for plants.

Grumpy Bird

I'm reasonably sure that Antarctica is ranked as one of the largest deserts

Muddypaws

Marry him you fool!

Even the males look like femboys.
