Reference Much

OH MAH GOD, MAH HANDS HURT!

Since I'm opening up Art Trades and Requests in a few day I decided to upload a reference sheet for mah boy, Kraus (Cross). This took forever to finish considering I had to do this over 4 times since I was using 's shading tutorial. I don't know how he does it, but man is it hard! Anyway, his color scheme and base information is all here, as for his Bio, read below:

Bio:
Kraus Leonus is a young lion who is training to become captain of the Leonus Core Army/Co. Kraus has been training for this day since his sixth birthday. He studies the enhanced fighting style known as Leonus Shoot Boxing which is type of kickboxing which has been passed down throughout the history of the company. Since he was born, he had a special chip implanted in both of his arms which does a very complex fusion with the flesh and bone structure of his arms, and fuses it with a metallic material which then forms a combination of cybernetic arms known as the Holy Arms. Despite everything that has been going during the thirteen years of his life, his own personal mission is to find his mother, Marie, who disappeared when Kraus turned 3. Now Kraus lives his life as sort of an heir-to-the-throne and carrying the name of the Leonus core until the day he dies and to uncover the whereabouts of his mother. Kraus is a courageous, noble, and honorable fist fighter. He doesn’t believe in ganging up on the enemy and much rather have fair battles between him/her. Despite his combat expertise, he still has a tendency to show mercy towards his enemy despite what they have done, which has both positive and negative outcomes to his future. Also, because he’s the keeper of the Holy Arms, he tries to only go into battle when necessary.
