"Zootopia Fan Art: Forget About It"

Continuing my semi-regular presentation of 'fan art' of anthropomorphic characters from the Disney CGI feature film "Zootopia" (debuting in American theaters on 3-4-16), I drew a comic gag about a very large character with a very small (yet pivotal) role in the early part of this movie...
'Jerry Jumbeaux, Junior' (voiced in the film by John DiMaggio) runs a sweet shop in Zootopia that caters to the town's behemoth residents (elephants, hippopotami, and rhinoceroses). In this comic gag, a hippo wants to get a discount off of one of Jerry's scrumptious treats, but is denied by the pachyderm for a simple, yet logical reason.
However, a slip of the hippo's big mouth upsets Jerry, as a typical 'stereotype' about his species is revealed by accident. (Having not seen the film, I don't know if said 'stereotype' is going to be mentioned or not.)
I hope to draw more images of some of the other characters from this highly-anticipated animated film. So, keep your eyes out for them!

No doubt, there are going to be lots of stereotypical jokes about the fauna in this film (such as the slowness of sloths [like 'Flash'], and how some of the goats eat everything [as in the original "Zootopia" sneak preview trailer]), but it will (hopefully) not get in the way of the actual storyline.

Disney Wiki. Disney does like publicity.

To be fair, Jerry becomes a victim of one of Nick Wilde's scams, early in the film; but that's all I'll say about that (without giving away the plot). As for the look of the elephant character, I'd used a variation of his likeness from a reusable bag with images of some of the "Zootopia" characters (available at the Disney Store for $2.99 + tax). Nuff said?

Yeah, I'm unsure if that reference is going to be used in the film, too...
