I tried to design some simple characters for an afternoon. :)

That's it. The creature is based off of a Capybara, which is a really big type of rodent I've always had a soft spot for. The human character Is supposed to be a girl, because I seem to only ever draw guys, so I hope that she does appear as a lady to to others instead of Link from the Legend of Zelda, which I've heard already while drawing today, lol. :)
What a fun character! Looks very cool. The lady is certainly appears as a girl :). One thing i notice is that the Capybara is that it is a bit of a chubby animal. maybe you can exaggerate that by making it's head smaller and his body bigger to make it look like a capybara a bit more. Did you work digitally on this piece?
