I’ve always loved the unique body shapes of the Rahkshi kaita, so that was my goal with this build. The front view is a little cluttered, so hopefully this back view can show off the shaping (and kraata compartment) a little more.
It should be pretty obvious where the name came from; I hope that still fits with the “spirit” of the naming convention.
