I have not drawn lycanines much from my setting so here they are! Sadly I missed drawtober yesterday and this is yesterday's prompt, I think from now on I will go with a schedule that is day behind until I can upload twice a day.
In case you are interested on lore regarding the lycanines:
The lycanines in my setting have a very family oriented culture and of all the races in my setting they also naturally have highest occurrence of twins and triplets. Big families are greatly valued and are a symbol of ones status, as a poor person who struggles providing for their family would not afford having a big family. The lycanines in my setting are monogamous and the older children often stay home long time and help with household work and raising the other children. However, wealthy very large families would also hire and have dedicated nannies who would care for their children. Skilled nannies and midwives are very respected among lycanine culture, and of particular honor for a nanny or a midwife would be the privilege of caring for someone's first born; however this would often be the job granted only to the most experienced nannies/midwives. Unlike in our culture among lycanines these professions are not female dominated and both genders have almost equal presentation.
The biggest lycanine families often have also the most power and this is of course related to their wealth, but also sometimes to their numbers, as some families would take pride on raising good warriors. Of these powerful families the oldest couple is considered as the "head of the family" who would have lot of power and say when it comes to for example managing and making decisions on family business as well as on their children's mate choices.
The importance that family has in lycanine culture shows also in their belief system, and the god of fertility (a mother figure, with exaggerated feminine features and stocky build) would have a shrine in every home and figurine of her would be a common wedding gift given to a newlywed couple. This gift would be thought as bringing good luck and grant the receiver a big family.

I wonder what a figurine of that god would look like... a furry version of the Venus of Willendorf?
Love how their culture is heavily inspired by their real-world counterparts.
HAHA! That would have to be a big meal to feed them all! XD
AWDs are one of my favourite species and seeing these chirpy doggos made me melt
I am so glad you liked them! I also discovered how much fun drawing them is! I need to draw them more! ^^
this came across again, thanks for making my day again!
