Commission - Emperor Kanzo of the Stred

A wallpaper-sized image depicting a jerboa man and an owl-bear man in a palatial room with stained glass windows. The jerboa is sat upon a throne made of a single large lump of metal with a cushion placed atop it, and is wearing an elaborate crown and regal clothing in the style of early Rennaissance Germany. The owl-bear is dressed in clothing of the same general style, though less elaborate, and stands behind the throne, glaring at the viewer from behind dark glasses. Behind the pair are five stained glass window panes, though only three are properly visible. One depicts a white fox wielding crystal magic, one depicts a poodle man in fancy clothing holding magic in both hands, and the third unobstructed panel depicts a pale-furred squirrel breaking free of shackles as snow swirls around him.

A huge commission for my buddy Sabe, depicting the Emperor of the Stred (his setting), Kalavansas Kanzo. His bodyguard Bruno stands behind him, and the scene is set within the throne room at the top of the Imperial Palace. The room is built inside a permanent zone of antimagic, so the mage-lords of the Stred cannot ply their wiles while in audience with the Emperor, who is immune to said zone.

The stained glass frames were a lot of fun on their own, so I also have them separated out:

 A stained glass window frame depicting a white fox woman wielding a crystal magic knife and shield. The name "Aruzen" is written below the portrait in blackletter font, and a crest featuring a crystal cluster and sunburst appears in the top and bottom of the frame. The colour scheme features a lot of white, pink, and pale teal, the Aruzen family colours.A stained glass window frame depicting an armoured husky man on a battlefield, flaming sword held aloft above his head. The name "Dior" is written in blackletter font below the portrait, and a family crest with a white stripe and fleur-de-lys pattern under three golden swords sits at the bottom of the frame. The colour scheme features a lot of light blue, golden yellow, and white, the Dior family colours.

A stained glass window frame depicting a regally-dressed Jerboa man facing the viewer and making a shushing gesture. He wears a crown and bears a scepter, and stands in front of an elaborate palace. The house crest of a hand and knife on gold and saffron sits below the name "Kanzo" in blackletter font under the portrait. The prominent colours are golden orange, saffron red, and dark purple, representing the Kanzo family colours.A stained glass window frame depicting a pale-furred squirrel man in a blue and green tunic, breaking a pair of shackles as a flurry of snow swirls about him. The name "Menscherfiend" is below the portrait in blackletter font. Below this is a family crest featuring a blue and green checker under a white starburst, framing a golden gear. At the top of the frame, a partly-unrolled parchment sits on a blood red background. The prominent colours are blue, green, and yellow, the Menscherfiend family colours.

A stained glass window frame depicting a fancily-dressed poodle man, flourishing magic in both hands as he looks sidelong at the viewer. Below the portrait is the name "Stolzerhund", and at the bottom of the frame is a family crest of three cream diamonds on a purple background. The top of the frame depicts a central starburst around which a pair of smaller stars and circles orbit. The prominent colours are purple and cream, the Stolzerhund family colours.
