A new drawing for my Animal Character series: Mice chums mischief

The "gentleman" looked suspect, as he wobbled too and fro. His head seemed oddly small for the lanky height of him. He hobbled and was bent with age, yet his youthful face was eerily spry.

Today's little character does fit into my animal series. I've not shared them for a bit ,but if you want to read or see what I'm going on about read my last post about them.

I've not been sharing them as late, as I've not really been recording their stories as much as I did in the beginning so I felt I locked myself into a corner that I could NOT share them unless their story was solidified into the world I'm building. However, that's silly and my own restrictions, so I'm just going to share them as they tumble out of my pen.

I thought this fellow, who started out as a gentleman mouse, began to lose it in perspective and then I saw it: He looked like two young mice having a prank and piling on top of one another under a big greatcoat. This made me laugh and thus here we have it:

Mice Chum's mischief

I'm not certain it should be plural as I do think the "mischief" does belong TO the mice, but alas, English can be tricky and grammar is an intricacy sometimes baffling me, much to the chagrin of my tutor as a child.

In sketchform

Normally I go from charcoal pencil to pen, but I'm rather liking the look of the rough outline more, so may keep that as the defining outline for them going forward, What do you think?

A few layers in GIF form.

Back to the studio for me and I hope all have a lovely day.

Well, thank you for joining me today, I hope you like my little fellow (or pair of fellows really, his chum being hidden under coat and in giant wellies).

I hope you get a moment in your day to indulge in your own passions.
