I started out wanting to make this one a raccoon and then it took a different direction. It’s somewhere between a raccoon and a cat now. I’ve shown this character to a couple of people and after they asked what it was, they thought he should be a pirate. So, that’s what I’m going with. He’s a pirate. One day I’ll get around to adding a hat to his outfit.

I had drawn him very large on the page in my sketchbook. So, I scaled him down on the next page so that I could get a full-body sketch and an extra pose in.
