I realized I had too many pictures where Nilra looked cute and cuddly, so I wanted to balance the scales with a pose where she shows us she can be fierce at times too, especially when we disturb her at an improper moment of the day. Don't worry, however; the claws are more for show ;)
This is one artwork I have closely worked on with RogueLiger, an artist I very much admire who draws INCREDIBLE big cats. I knew from the very first moment I watched him that I will want an artwork of Nilra from him, and you can see for yourself just how marvelous the final result is. I will forever cherish his craftmanship <3
