This is an illustration for the free Kansas City newspaper "The Pitch". It is a little promo for a comic convention that is mentioned in the paper. I think that they are all identifiable characters except for the cat eared chick (I wanted one character that I could make whatever color in order to create a more balanced illustration.)
I did this semi-caricature of my brother-in-law for his birthday. I've always told him that he looks like a koala, yet he has a large amount of curly blond hair. I wanted the "uniform line width" that you get in illustrator, so I used it to make this one. It was fun working in illustrator again and it also helped me to remember why I switched to photoshop.
