** I wanted to make some Zootopia fan art involving one of the deleted scenes form the original concept story for Zootopia. Don't get me wrong, I love and enjoy how the story was portrayed in the final cut and agree with the reasons why the original concept didn't make it, but I'm also interested and wish that Disney will be able to, one day, at least bring out Wild Times even without the need for shock collars and explain more about Nick's backstory. To recreate the Tundratown's "European" ice setting, I was inspired from traditional Portuguese limestone sidewalks and granite roads and made them out of ice and snow as it can resemble ice cracks.**

So in this pic, after being denied a loan from practically every bank in Zootopia to make his Wild Times dream come true, Nick Wilde's about to enter the Tundratown Bank but stops in the cold streets and has second thoughts about if it'll be worth it. After all, what's the point of dreaming something when no one will help you make it become reality? Despite Nick not the type that shows his emotions, he couldn't help it but shed a few tears of frustration in silence wondering if he'll make it happen...
Then after having a moment to himself, he goes to Kozlov for one last attempt to get the money for it.

** And how about if we "play a game"? There are 3 hidden mickeys somewhere in this picture, one is easy to find out to make things simple XP. If you manage to find all three, note me with the three screenshots** (do not reveal the location of the hidden mickeys in the comments as i'll resort to hide them)
