Loamhedge is a massively underrated Redwall novel. This is especially egregious, since it features paws-down the best character in the entire series - Flinky the stoat! Sure, he might be a vermin, lazy, and too garrulous for his own good, but he's also a witty barrel of laughs, keenly intelligent and sly, and would rather his boss just chill instead of sending them all off to attack that weird red-bricked place that looks super boring anyway.
Unfortunately, his boss, Burrad the weasel, is a killjoy as well as a killer, who to put it mildly doesn't much appreciate Flinky’s banter and frequently critical zingers. At least Flinky can always count on his mate, fellow stoat and camp cook Crinktail; they're inseparable and are strong contenders for the best vermin power couple in the series!

I thought it was about time to draw something based on what remains my favorite Redwall book - the very book which first got me more into reading fiction and quite probably put me on the path to the furry fandom! Hopefully this is just the beginning of a fun new year of art!
