Got asked to do a mock-up of a California Golden Beaver for the California Naturalist annual service pin. Here's the original colored pencil idea that looked like a rat. The b&w sharpie drawing that fixed a couple things. Then the digitally colored one (using the official palette). I wish I could've done details, but this is only going to be about ¾"x¾" so it's already gonna have to shrink.
