Artwork Text Description: Digital toned paper illustration of anthro-furry bevaal cheetah identical twin brothers Ti’maar and Lue’maar hanging out with their close friend and occasional mate Areco’tavak. They are sitting inside on a couch-bed surrounded by pillows as they drink and talk. Lue’maar is laughing at his own joke and Areco replies in text dialog “Really Lue’? That isn’t very funny…” as he playfully punches Lue’maar on the shoulder pushing him into Ti’maar. Lue’maar has one foot paw on the couch and one on Areco’s leg. They are all wearing traditional bevaal wrap-around loincloths, Ti’ and Areco are wearing traditional skirts as well, and they all have various accessories and jewelry.
From when they were very young Ti’ and Lue’s father Ra’maar encouraged them to hang out with the children of other Wolf Alliance leaders, especially the highest status ones, the wolves. Areco and the twins were very close in age so ended up spending the most time together through their childhood and teenage years compared to other great houses’ children. As they reached military age in their teens they all became much busier with their duties and didn’t get to spend as much time together. So, when they finally did get some free time, they made the most of it. As they were more separated through their teens and early 20s they both got slightly uneasy around Areco, who they found to like cheetahs a bit too much. But after the war they built back an even stronger relationship. Especially between Areco and Lue’maar who grew closest.

Finished sketch with my characters ^^ The Wolf Areco, and the twin Cheetahs Ti’maar and Lue’maar. Hanging out and having a good time
Despite Be’vaal canines and felines always having tension between them, Areco always loves the company of a Cheetah (especially the Maar brothers). They have known each other as long as they can remember. With them being sons of their respective race’s Alphas, they practically grew up together. Ti’ and Lue’s parents always were deliberate to socialize them with the children of the ruling Wolf house, strengthening the valuable bond between both their peoples in the Wolf Alliance. Now adults, the twins still always take the opportunity to spend time with Areco to catch up when they can. With Ti’ and Areco in line to take over for their parents someday, the alliance between the Cheetahs and the Wolves is set to be strong for another generation _____
This drawing started as a thumbnail sketch in a big collection of thumbnail ideas I did 4 years ago :P Now that I am trying to work on finished sketches more, I’m finally starting some of them lol. This began as a greyscale sketch, then I converted it to a toned paper one as an experiment and liked it more lol. Both versions can be seen on the public tier patreon post https://www.patreon.com/posts/areco-and-twins-103986065 __________
