When Pigs Fly... (2015) by LordDominic

When Pigs Fly... (2015)

LordDominic

2015 art. Porcius Porter, who at this point I had decided should become a pilot, based entirely on making a joke about "when pigs fly".

Description from the original submission page:

Meet Porcius Porter, "Porky" for short, or as the other guys in the squadron call him, "Bacon Butt". 23, boar, pilot. Currently rushing to his fighter jet, either the fighters are being scrambled or he took too long getting into his flight suit and is late for a drill. In a field dominated by predator species, and particularly vulpines and felines with sharp reflexes and eyesight, Porky is a bit of an odd one out. He's the worst pilot in the squadron, although that "honor" has to fall on someone in every squadron I suppose, and the nickname "Bacon Butt" comes from a time an enemy fighter got on his tail and shot him down, and the wolves and foxes he works with probably all wonder why he's not a cook or janitor or something instead. At least he's nowhere near as skittish as the cervine and rodent pilots.

I had to resurrect an old one-off boar character just to make the pun about flying pigs but then I decided that, with the canine infantrymen I have, I needed at least one pilot so I started developing him a bit... and now I probably have a reason to draw at least one pig character more often.
