An anthropomorphic chevrotain standing in the middle of a jungle. He is grinning mischievously and is wearing clothing that Southeast Asian muslim males usually wear, including a songkok hat
Last commission before Christmas - one for @hobbestiger.bsky.social - a design for my take on Sang Kancil, the Southeast Asian equivalent of Br'er Rabbit 😄A weak and small yet cunning figure, he uses his intelligence to triumph over more powerful beings 😊
