Decided to digitally color one of my Zootopia-style pencil sketches of Max (original -https://www.weasyl.com/submission/1331145/zootopia-max).
Scene from The Book Thief by Markus Zusak, the novel that inspired me to create this character (and one of the best books I've ever read):
“I..." He struggled to answer. "When everything was quiet, I went up to the corridor and the curtain in the living room was open just a crack... I could see outside. I watched, only for a few seconds." He had not seen the outside world for twenty-two months.
There was no anger or reproach.
It was Papa who spoke.
How did it look?"
Max lifted his head, with great sorrow and great astonishment. "There were stars," he said. "They burned my eyes.”
