Description Well this is the main character for my cartoon, his a weasle even though my original plans were to make him a cat....I've yet to name him yet but considering that his name is never said in it and this whole project will take months to finish I don't see any rush......as my journal says it's made to be a takeoff of the cartoons of the 30's and and made a character design to suit.......much of his design is derived from the prototype of Bugs Bunny and Heckle and Jeckle.

Ahh now I know the origin behind the design. Even though the changes were a bit subtle, think they help out in the long run :]

You already know I think he's cool. I'm trying to think of a name for him, too...he needs something sarcastic. Definitely.

Ooh inspriation from older cartoons, I like that! Both the coloring and lineart are smooth and clean, and I really like the cartoony style you gave him. The pose came out good too. Good luck with your project.

Mm, so you decided to make him a weasel after all. Looks great still, tho I think the "paint" on the sign should be more messy/ bolder to give it that handpainted look. Atm it's got more of a sterotypical chinese wok feel. Unless he wants chinese food that is...

Yeah at the times I couldn't be stuffed getting it right because the the effect was an experiment and it's just a prototype design.....though I don't see myself changing alot...I'm pretty happy with how he looks
