Here are some sketches I made of Diddgery's, Buttwings' and my characters to work out how I wanted to draw them for the picture I did for Didge's birthday.
It was really cool trying to draw these chracters in the Animal Crossing style. I really liked these sketches, which is why I'm putting them here. The birthday picture was originally just going to be these three, but I got really into it and the project grew much bigger than intended. I've never put so much work into creating such a complete piece before or since, but it was very fun and for a very important friend.
