Two of my friends, who requested me to draw them together and together with their animals. It was quite a challenge to invent a way to draw the animals in the portrait, especially the turtles, but luckily came to me the brilliant idea to draw them all ontop of one another on Misho's shoulder instead of a parrot XD So I guess this makes them pirate turtles :D

References were a few photographs that Tedi gave to me for the purpose.
Drawn with HB, 2B, 4B, 6B, 8B on a sheet with size 50x35 cm.
