USAGI YOJIMBO
I'll always remember this piece for the following reason: Before I started drawing this I printed out 3 or 4 reference pics from the internet. I had them on my seat on my way to pick up my 5yr. old son from daycare. (He is a huge Ninja Turtle fan.) He got in my truck and immediately picked up the printout with Usagi. He must have stared at that thing for a solid 5 minutes. He asked me about 20 questions about the character: What is his name? Why are his ears tied up? Is he a ninja like Leonardo? Where does he live? Is there a movie with him? It's as though he felt gipped because such a kick ass character existed and he didn't know anything about it. He requested to watch a show with him when we arrived home. I told him I don't have any cartoons with him. So to appease him I looked Usagi Yojimbo up on YouTube and found one 10 minute clip of him fighting alongside the Ninja Turtles. He acted like that was the coolest thing he had ever seen and has since watched that one clip about 5 times. But in his defense, a samurai rabbit is pretty dang cool.
