Artist's Comments

Just toying around with a redesign of the kinda-sorta-me character I use sometimes. Because I'm never satisfied with these things.

Went with a little bit of mixed-breed this time ... I went and looked up Italian dog breeds, and I found the Cane Corso (sort of an Italian pit bull, in some ways). I figure that works in some ways - the Corso is quiet, prone to separation anxieties, and indifferent-to-nervous around strangers. Also, just a touch bulky, which sort of matches my own weight problems.

Still mostly shepherd, because as long as the last name's there, I'll be forever drawn to the punning capacity for it. And just a touch of wolf in the perpetual glare and the fact that I'm really not that good of a Shepherd (hence the "black sheep" design on the shirt--I don't fit the rest of my family at all).

And there you have it: further proof that I think way too much on entirely inconsequential matters.

It's pretty cool, though. I love it when a lot of thought goes into character design.

Hey, uh, thanks.

FOR (picture[1]) to (picture[++]) do;
Quality(picture++) -> Quality(picture[1])/6 + Quality(picture[++-1]);
UNTIL Quality -> "Unbelieviably awesome!"

Heh. More logical than any of mine.

I picked hyena because they're underused and cute. Rats are also cute. As are most mammals, really.

Thanks.

I got the first "German shepherd" gag thrown at me in elementary school ... and eventually decided to appropriate it for my own. The Italian thing was sort of a recent development, though.

Not to bad of a redesign. I like it!
*Thumbs up!*
