Description
Here are two tanuki siblings I designed for a comic. Traditionally, male tanuki are drawn fat and with very big balls, but since I love breaking tradition, these two are perfectly proportional. In case you can't tell, the little sister is holding a sando-gasa (sedge hat) behind her head.<br />
<br />
I'd like to point out now to those who may or may not know that tanuki and raccoons are NOT the same creature. The tanuki is sometimes called the raccoon-dog or the badger-dog, but it is not just a raccoon. In Japanese folklore, they're tricksters and shapeshifters, but don't carry the malicious reputation that foxes do; tanuki are more playful.
Hope somebody likes this!
