Color = Life (critique requested)

something i've been working on for a while on and off again whenever i had time to myself at work. Since i didn't go to work today I decided to pick up my tablet and do something constructive. I wanted to finish coloring this but My patience with coloring has sadly gotten quite thin, especially when you have things to do and need to plan out your life... So i made the artistic decision to make the world colorless and have the character and graffiti in color as this style also fits with the characters and the world they're in

These two new characters i thought up in my head are supposed to be more "kid-friendly". The toucan remains nameless, though the more I think about it the more I wanna just call him "Typhus" because tend to irritate people with his social behavior (cuz birds squawk a lot) and the Gator is simply named "Gato" pronounced like the Spanish word for "Cat". Gato the Gator and Typhus the Toucan. The silent broad accompanied by the talkative loon. I like it.

Anyway, these characters were going to be used to act as faces for a new gallery but considering that i barely have enough time to really do anything anymore unless I MAKE the time, i dropped the idea all together. But to give a brief Biography of the two, Gato the Gator is a wandering youth who left home and the angst of living there and explores the big city looking for new canvases for his graffiti. Along the way he meets Typhus, a loud mouth Toucan who's too talkative for his own good, getting him in all sorts of trouble. After helping Typhus out of a rather ugly brawl with a gang of Hyena's, Typhus follows Gato around like a lost dog having found a new owner, much to Gato's displeasure. Because Gato's anti-social behaviors don't let him speak his mind, he can't bring himself to tell Typhus to go away, so he endures the new friendship as best he can, even though Typhus seems to constantly get into trouble. On the bright side though, he does admire Gato's skill as a graffiti artist, and it's nice to have your talents appreciated.

There were a few other characters to the story they i'd worked out in my head and might even continue to work on but we'll see in the future. For now, enjoy!
