It's a hyena tea party!
Reference image: Here
Name of character: Chewy
Link to character page/site/reference: Here. I've been really lazy about setting up character pages for everyone, so for now hopefully the reference link is enough. ^^'
Is this a character or a fursona? Character.
Things about the design you'd like to clarify? I messed up on the reference. For the leg with the dark marking on it, follow the larger image. I flipped it and forgot to change the leg.
Colour and design of tea cup: Maybe something african inspired, like these pots? If that's too complicated, something light blue would be lovely. ^^
What do you think about tea? Honestly, I don't drink a lot of it. I come from a family of coffee lovers so there's never tea in my house. I rarely get the opportunity to drink it, but it's pretty great and I really need to buy some more.
Why do you like to have a hyena as a character/fursona? I love hyenas. They're freaking awesome and they're some pretty cool looking animals. I've always found them really interesting, both appearance wise and how they behave. They're a lot smarter than people like to give them credit for, and I love learning about them. Honestly, I've never cared much for lions and tend to root for the hyena clans instead when I'm watching nature documentaries, lol.
As for Chewy, he was orignally created for an RP. I scribbled a quick ref to get his design down, and sort of fell in love with him. I did my best to research how hyenas live and find a place for him. I love my quirky little hyena boy, he's one of my favorite characters and I can't imagine him as any other species.
Link to a post that proves that your character is a hyena. (The post must be older than the start of this event and I do not accept posts edited after the start of the event): He was never posted on CS, but here you can see that he was created about six months ago. I don't currently have a CS character thread, but I've been hoping to order a bit of art of him and start using him a lot more. It's just a bit tough finding artists who draw hyenas.
While I'm aware that this post misses the cut off, I figured I'd link to this post to show that I'm trying to introduce him to CS. Of course it's perfectly fine by me if you do not consider him a "CS" hyena. ^^
