In 1867, Charles Willoughby III discovered the rubabutu rain bird deep in the forgotten forest. Willoughby couldn't have picked a more inappropriate name for the little creature. It is not a bird and it hates getting wet. Willoughby was mauled and killed two years later by another one of his foolishly named discoveries...the gentle love ape.

That's funny! Great illustration and love the back story!
There is that sense of humor again! One day this is all going to jell into one cool book! Or several. :o)
Thanks guys. I am debating on using this watercolor/ink style for the Toothhead story. My other thought was to use some thickly textured, natural-looking abstracts for the backgrounds and digitally adding layers with vector images of the characters and other elements on top (kind of like animation cells).
Aww its so cute! Good job Denver!
