Bo the Red Kangarooby ~hubadawaha

Anthro / Digital Media / Drawings

EDIT: After mulling over the various comments I received (thank you so much for your input, guys! :'D ), I altered her pattern a little and I'm much happier with it now. ^_^ Also, tried to fix her wonky heel.

Bo is somewhat solemn but not at all unfriendly. She doesn't speak much, but is always honest and very frank. Usually reasonable, but will not hesitate to resort to fighting if given no alternative. A kick-boxer with moderate strength and speed, but impressive agility. Never learned to swim.

First Cappa made Sammy, then Chris made Dell. So I made Bo. That's pretty much the story... (I wanted to try the style they used for the backgrounds.)

I also considered making either an Owl, a Panda, a Wolf, a Fox, a Rabbit, and Polar Bear character. (I might go ahead and draw the Polar Bear too, because the sketches of her basic design came out really cute.

) I decided on a Kangaroo for three main reasons:
1) Dell was in a swamp and Sammy was in a forest. I wanted to use a landscape that was different from those in the background. Like, say, an Australian Desert.
2) Sammy wears blue, and Dell wears green. I wanted to use an animal that would look nice wearing red.
3) Sammy looks like he has great upper body strength, and Dell is a fast swimmer. Kangaroos are fast on land and have strong legs. I thought she filled a nice little niche.

I'm really sorry this comment is so long. I hadn't drawn hardly anything in a week or two... so... I spent my whole Saturday on this... I was drawing-starved...
