The Bad Neighbor

Even in the animal world,... there is that one bad apple. I hope that everyone had a great New Year's! I am finally back after suffering through the flu.

He's way beyond bad apple! Is this all digital? Looks a bit different than some of the others with these characters. Regardless, very nice stuff! Looks so ominous slouching down from the branches... and the colors are spot on!
