Happy Neil Banging Out The Tunes Day to all who celebrate!!!

Picture of a hairless rat near a very small colorful keyboard-style piano. One paw is lifted up as if he is about to play it. The bottom caption reads "Neil banging out the tunes April 13, 2006"

Check out this one year difference! I'm a huge supporter of keeping your old works to look back on.
I can't wait to draw her again next year for another benchmarker!

A simple sketch of the same character in the same standing pose. The right figure was from 2024 and the left 2025. Imo the right shows great progress in my art skills.
The character itself is a coyote-like creature with snake-like eyes and a forked tongue. Even in the story she is from, her exact mix of species is not known.
