Probably the first of many pictures in my sketchbook like this.
Some people may know already, I like mice. They're small and cute and fuzzy. Mice make for some of the coolest characters because their world is just ours but bigger. If mice were the world's intelligent race, every day would be an adventure for them. While our fantasy world has dragons, and other mystical and monstrous beings capable of the unthinkable, their real world already has creatures like that, from the obvious cat, to birds, to lizards, the list goes on. Also in my eyes a mouse with a sword is about the coolest thing ever.
I've tried time and time again to draw mice in a fashion I thought would be pleasing to look at trying to stay within' a certain style. With these drawings you'll see I decided to disregard style, and I ran the mouse design as simple shapes. I learned quite a bit from just this page alone. Something that I've known but never paid attention to. I'll be experimenting with the same shapes I used for these mice, and more in the future.
