My first artwork of "Legoshi" was nice but it was a 100% adaptation of the ANIME.
After reading the MANGA a few times and getting more and more into that character I've decided to try my very own style on him and... being more true to the design of the MANGA.
AND HERE he is: "Legoshi" in my own traditional style!
This is my very own wolf design.
This is how he would look like if he ever met "Reptile" for example.
It seems to be a good balance between the ANIME, the MANGA and my own drawings - and I like it very much!
Also, he is happy this time!
^^
Enjoy!!!

I'm sure that if Paru Itagaki saw this, she'd be super into it. She pointed out that Legoshi's hands are very important, and she puts a lot of effort into them, and your hands are always very lovely. :)
Hey, thanks very much!!!!
Yes, I've also read this "Important details when drawing Legoshi" part and I wanted to respect it... his fur pattern, his eye lids and his hands... it's all very important to her!

Yeah, yeah... ^^ Also... even though they do wear shoes on campus... why shouldn't they take them off every now and then? Most have claws... and when it's summer it's usually fine this way.
^^
^^
Well the shoes in their world are designed for their sharp toenails, so they do wear them, but they also have sandal options, to ensure they don't have to worry about ripping their socks. They also use nail clippers like we do to avoid that scenario, so it really comes down to things like dress code for school and work. ; )
Yeah, the shoes are dress code, I know... after all you can see them wearing socks - which would suck with long claws!!!! XD
But in their free time the kids usually have no shoes... so that's cool.
AND we might not forget the fact that I've drawn Legoshi's feet for two reasons:
1. He's in his free time and sitting on the warm grass... I suppose he would just love the feeling of the grass touching his feet. I think he loves nature that much that he could sit there for hours. ^^
2. I know that many people will appreciate it...

I know Reppy. The people of Beastars aren't above going barefoot even more than we do. And yes, people love seeing Legoshi's feet. ; )
I've recognized plenty of... foot related artworks around here and... I wanted to add something tasteful and still lovable.
^^
^^
Thanks! ^^
Oh... how come he has three nasty scars above his right eye in some other fan artworks and official drawings? Is he getting into a fight with someone in the later issues? I'm afraid he's getting injured, eh?

You're welcome.
Well I would hate to spoil it for you, since it's part of a key plot point that comes up later on.

I did some mild research myself and figured it must've been an important fight... but we don't wanna spoil it for other people, either.

Also, I've learned that he is supposed to gain some scars and small changes in his appearance over time... but I like him the way he is HERE!

Most people know the reason from reading the fan translation out there, though the translation work is just awful in places and it reads way too stiffly. I would recommend not reading it and wait for the official release by Viz. That, or the second season of the anime, which will likely cover it. ; )
I am only watching the ANIME or reading the official German MANGA! ^^ The translations are almost identical and I know the translator guy from other MANGAS - he is really good!
You captured pretty good Legoshi´s essence and nature into the pic : D Really really awesome. Also so weird to see you drawing furry characters, especially wolves, that´s a good change of pase indeed.
Yeah, wolves are not my thing... but it works!!!
Thanks for the comment, buddy.

Reppy, this is phenomenal work. You captured the art style perfectly while adding the Reptile touch to your work (which is appropriate for a very good reason). ^^
Aw, you put the words right out of my mind... XD
Seriously, that is what I had in mind!!
THANKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS ^^

always nice to see art more fitting to his personality. This looks amazing thank you for posting
Oh wow, this is amazing! Your art is always super professional and a blast to see.
Aswwww, thank you very much!!! That's nice of you to say.
TWO Beastars works in a row! Both amazingly done!
Intend to do Juno too? Just curious...

Awww... that's what you meant! XD
Juno is not very interesting to me... and I personally dislike Louis (though he's a great character with a huge background).
If I do a new BEASTARS artwork... it would most likely show Legoshi, Louis and Haru - the three main characters.
Or I would do something like... Legoshi, Jack and Haru... the three close friends.
^^
I'm not certain yet... because there is a new REPTILE artwork in progress which has more priority, hehehehehe!
For now I've done my part on Legoshi... that was my favourite character and I'm happy that people like how I've drawn him. Also, I'm happy with the drawing myself so everything is fine for now.
For now!

Awww Legoshi is so happy. You did a amazing work! ^^
He surely is! :3 It is the simple things that make him happy. ^^
Its truly nice to see this poor wolf smile once in a while, you did a fantastic job with the picture and its nice to see legoshi barefoot cause well people seem to like that a lot and i might be amongst those ;D
Hehe... yes, after my sad and depressed artwork I wanted him to be happy.
And yes... I know about certain... foot lovers
xD
That's fine with me. ^^
And I'm glad you like it.

Well, I know that you'll find lots of artworks around here... but I doubt that you'd like most of them. I'm not specifically into this... but I have some friends who enjoy the "clean and tasteful" depiction of feet. That is also a reason why I didn't give him shoes. Like I said, it's not MY thing... but it's not a bad thing, either. Also, why should he wear anything on the grass in his free time, after all????
^^
And you see... if some people appreciate the care I've put into this... then I'm happy!

Also, he deserves some fun after all.

Legoshi is awesome, but I did question His judgment at times...Poor Juno.
Great Picture.
