This is a detail image of my Wing Commander themed Christmas card that I'll be sending to all my Patrons.
Don't worry if you're not a patron, I'll post the full card in January. (But there's no harm in becoming a patron! You'll get an actual card all signed and numbered and stuff.)
You can back me for as little as a dollar, and cap your backing at a dollar a month, and get all my Patreon content at that backing level plus the card! There are, unfortunately, some months where I don't post a funded piece of art -- and so you don't have to pay that month -- but I usually post some free content to keep you occupied. (Old sketches and stuff.)
I always love me some well designed anthropomorphic characters. I really liked the art style of Zootopia, and have played in a fantasy anthro RPG as a Musk Ox character. Using cartoons, or animals, or both, tends to get right at the nature and essence of the character. It's like a shorthand. You see a lion character and you know he's in charge. It's like character classes in RPGs: everyone knows what the fighter and wizard do and so it's easy and comfortable to slip into those roles.
I know this is a few years old, but this is VERY cool! Very creative idea of having Hobbes get a yarn ball for Christmas. That's fighter pilot humor: to tease a fellow pilot like that. Few things could get you in more of a Christmas mood than a Kilrathi opening a Christmas present.
