So, Ashton is a character whom I avoid posting art of, as I want to use him in a more serious project. The version of him from Children of Maeria is just an alternate universe version of the character, in truth, the main universe Ashton comes from is a truly cruel one called ARKUS. His story involves him attempting to survive a war while being trapped in a city being invaded by the two largest superpowers in his world.
Starting his life as a slave mechanic, mining conflict diamonds, he manages to escape after learning that he has psychic powers, he soon becomes a soldier fighting for a militia fending off one of said invading superpowers, and ultimately evolving to become a psionic supersoldier with his own personal goals after watching one too many atrocities. (his story's a bit too busy to truly summarize in a short paragraph, and I don't want to spoil too much.)
Unfortunately, his story doesn't have a particularly happy end, as ARKUS is sorta a villain origin story of how Ashton eventually becomes one of the most wanted individuals in the world after... genociding one of the invading countries... by using its own nuclear weapons on itself...
Anyways, here's Ashton from the Children of Maeria Universe chatting with his murderous, genocidal, misanthropic war criminal main universe self! they're also the same age!
Oh, I should also mention that his eyes are yellow. because he's been injected with multiple gene-modding serums that drastically boost his strength and durability.
One of them is a cloaking serum that had a side effect of turning his fur melanistic, hence the black coat.
Note: this is not his final design, it's more like what I'd imagine he would look like from my ideas of him.

I remember Judge Dredd murdering everyone in one of the Soviet Megacities in one story arc using their own nuclear weapons against them. Definitely a war crime that the character should have faced consequences for. But the Cursed Earth will be the Cursed Earth. x..x
I am interested in learning more about the ARKUS setting since I do like dark military science fiction stories.
