Sweetheart Rreign

I'll be honest, I thought I was going to hate this color when it was first proposed. Predominantly pink? Partial candy pieces on a flesh and blood animal? Beady eyes on things with already large heads? Lovey-dovey demeanor? Blech all around.

But in practice, this is actually one of the more fun colors to work on. I just love how this guy came out, I loved shading it, I loved everything. We're also supposed to hide heart shapes within the design, and that can range from obvious things (like the chest plates here) to more subtle things (the wing membrane, and that bit behind the head that's a little obscured by the peppermints.) It's just a fun color all around.

I wanted this guy to look a bit more bashful than some of the other SW pets. Like it's this big awkward pet that doesn't really know how to express itself.
