Behind any rainbow is a wave of darkness.

This is my fursona, a bat anthro. When I look for bat anthros in an Elfwood search, I usually see humanoids with little wings on their backs. Anthros are supposed to be half of whatever their animal parts are, correct? So I took respect to that and made Rainbow. I like her because she has a uniqueness to her body. And the black fur combined with rainbow-colored hair is an analogy to myself. I'm dark but there's always a bit of light to my personality. So... Yah.

Very cool drawing. I really like the contrast between dark and light. It is a dark brooding character with just a touch of light. Nice job making this a true anthro, not just a person with bat wings. Great character design.

Am I imagining things, or are the toes rainbow colored also? If so, that’s a nice touch. Great job.

You did a nice job on this...I really like the contrast between the rainbow hair and the dark body...as well as the symbolism behind the piece. I'm happy to have this in our Bifrost project! *smiles*
