So I decided to challenge myself to design and draw an anthro of each of the Chinese zodiac animals. The anthro is intended to have the personally associated with that sign, so mister rat is intelligent, quick-witted, and a bit timid, in summary (I worked off a somewhat more detailed description, but I'm just using Google).
I REALLY like how the rat turned out. I might use him when I need a random anthro for stuff, but he isn't a close enough to my own personality to be another of my sonas.
I did the Ox already, but may not post him as I don't like how he turned out. The Rat took me a very distracted hour to draw, the Ox took twice that and just didn't work out. My intention is to relax, get more confident in my art, and get comfortable drawing anthros quickly, I got stressed drawing the Ox, which defeated the purpose and I think that's most of the reason he just turned out badly.
