Birchy's

Hey look another company that shows up in my sci fi, don't worry this is literally the only other one I have right now. There may be others in the story but they'll likely not get a sheet unless they have some backstory that needs to be established.
Birchy's is basically a double whammy with what its suppose to be alluding to. Its kinda a parody of both Wendy's and Chuck-E-Cheese's at the same time.

In my sci fi's timeline back in the later 70s on the planet Earth within the country Canada a restaurant chain opened with animatronics and arcade machines meant to entertaining the younger demographic. Things went ok until about the mid to late 80s went more people started to use home consoles instead which caused them to struggle to bring in business. By the early 90s they rebranded as more a general restaurant and retired both the animatronics and got rid of their arcade cabinets to the most part. They also changed their menu to focus more on burgers than pizzas. It worked surprisingly well as they actually grew and became a competing force against American fast food chains mostly staying within the borders of Canada.

WHY IS THIS RELEVANT TO A SCI FI YOU MAY BE WONDERING: Natalie lives close to a Birchy's and that's where she goes to eat pretty often in the story where she drags the alien cast with her. Its a decently common location in the story so that's why its relevant I bring it up.

It was hella fun to actually design Birchy the Burger Beaver (yes no shitting you that's its name). It is the most Canadian thing I have ever designed I'm very pleased with myself. Also fun to draw a more standard cartoon style then I usually do. See everyone I do know what curves are! BE AMAZED!

So enjoy I plan to do a few non story related pieces then the last species I needed done THEN Hopefully either some tech or some actual world concept art pieces!
