This is the inside cover page of the Beef Stroganov sketchbook I carry to most conventions with me, showing my reference picture of the character and detailing a bit of his back story. I thought up the character shortly after seeing the Pixar film "Ratatouille," which explains the random rat sitting in the corner.

Also see this file pointing out some of Branko's physical details: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/1774118/
