"So ok, I'm trying to learn to draw characters. Its something I've never been able to really do. So to start, I wanted to draw something for for doing the amazing job on the commission he did for me, http://www.furaffinity.net/view/1648406/

So here he is as a hungry rat! I did borrow some cues from his artstyle, which is the style of art I would like to learn, the smooth toony look has always been my favorite ^_^ I'm sure with time my style will develop and show through."
