OG - Behold! The Mancuspia!! (Patreon)

It's been in my mind for a while to draw a mancuspia. You've ever wondered what is was? Well, first of all, it comes from the story "Cefalea" (Headache) which is a title from a series in a book  called, Bestiary. The stories are fascinating and borderline surreal. 

In this story, men take care of a farm of mancuspias, which are small rabbit like mammals with beaks and claws. The smaller mancuspias would be woolier, and as they approach adulthood they shed it their wool little by little, which get everywhere. As they get older they develop claws and have spiikes, which are somewhat poisonous. They're also born through eggs!

I took this name cause this animal felt like a weird amalgam of things that somehow worked together and made something. I have to say that's what it means to be an artist to me, no pseudonym has stuck to me like Mancuspia has, and I think I've been wanting to share this for a long times cuz I'm a nerd and I think it's a weirdly funny little animal. Definitely wouldn't have one!!

I'm thinking og making the chiby version part of my signature for presentation cards, what do you think? Maybe I can workshop ideas?
