Family Matters

First off, Happy New Years! 

I hope you are all having a fantastic 2018 so far. This post will be all about some characters I am currently brewing up and bringing together.

I spent a lot of time on Chicken Bone's design in terms of looks and fashion as well as bringing some of his family to life.

Enjoy!

Chicken Bone in his official duds, yet to refine, but you get the idea!

His hair is based off the 'comb' of a chicken. The text on his shirt is just a messy made up logo based on a couple languages merged together, which is how Splatoon does their text/branding—combining English and Japanese text to make something believable looking. I dug it, so that was the main inspiration behind his shirt.

While I was in California staying for a few months, I was really inspired by all the trendy fashion out there which is a little bit less prominent back home. I like how everyone just tries in the big cities haha. His 'lil punky outfit gives me life.

What a sweetheart. Very important feature.

Whoa, new character! This one is still fresh, I still have a lot of work to do on them. This is Chicken Bone's younger sibling, Drumstick. (Yes, Drumstick. We're making the whole bird here.)

They're younger by about, I want to say 5 or so years. I have a younger sibling, myself so a lot of this is based on my real life experiences.

Lots of work to do on this character, so stay tuned.

Are we shipping it yet!? I'm setting this ship off hard haha. It's Chicken 'n Waffle. Finally drawn together!

THE WHOLE  FAMILY

Waffle, Chicken Bone, a very proud Momma Hen, and Drumstick. Waffle crashes with them so often he's practically family and they all get along super great.  The father is not present in this family since Chicken's parents split up shortly after Drumstick was born.

(side note: vaguely I wanted to have a running theme of Chicken's 'comb' with the other two rottweilers. The mother being the tail feathers, and his other sibling's flip looking like the wing. It's really subjective to those who view it though haha; just something subtle. I might push it more for the other two later on when I flesh their designs out. It's pretty obvious for C-Bone)

Side side note: if you're wondering why 'were' is in quotations, is that he's not really a werewolf *gasp* he's just a really huge wolf, and earned the nickname that way.

Lastly, the rest of the design sheet (wip) with a little chicken, and a close up of some silly expressions without the little chicken or 'little muse' so to speak haha. I've been calling the little chicken on his shoulder 'noodle' or 'little muse' and it's sort of like an extra expression or the angel/devil/conscience on his shoulder. I thought it was cute.

That is indeed an ass-tat that starts on his cheek and runs down his leg. It's a little vague, if you were wondering what I had scribbled on his hind quarters.

Thank you all for your kind support, and I hope you continue to enjoy the content I put up here.
