First time commenter on your art. To me rat-guy seems more at peace with himself as an adult. I like the emotional state that the posture implies between the two pics. The younger version of himself looking over his shoulder, while still full of bravado as here, seems more tense in comparison to these years. Now he's more open and flowing. I'm sure your character led a full life and adult rat-guy could impart wisdom on the younger punk-rockers.
