This is a random member of the Gawtrybe from the 'Martin the Warrior' series.
'Martin the Warrior' was a story in the 'Redwall' literary series by Brian Jacques (both 'Redwall' and 'Martin the Warrior' were adapted for animation).

The Gawtrybe are described thus,

"The Gawtrybe was a gang of wild squirrels who lived on the slopes of Boldred's mountain. They loved nothing more than to play games, some of which endangered the lives of travelers. They were only well-behaved when Boldred was nearby. The Gawtrybe squirrels used small stone axes as their favored weapons"

My sketch is a redraw of a Gawtrybe'er from this episode (link tested 09/14/02021): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cWs6T3v2ydQ

If the link fails, the episode title is 'Heroes and Fools'.

This ACO is a redrawing of this animation cell: https://sta.sh/0kpopw3da05

Mine is standing a bit straighter and has a (better!) tail and added a few feathers. ^^

I've explained what redrawings are in a previous submission, but, effectively, it's the act of trying to duplicate another drawing (ie, looking at it and drawing what one sees). I wasn't too anal about this one---again, it's different (most egregious error was I didn't lean his 'chest' sphere far forward enough).

Pencil...

The featured pencil is the 'Tribe' 1022 model from The Pencil Exchange.

Bob Truby has this to say about the company,

"Part of the General Pencil Company. In 1891 Oscar rented an old mansion for a factory and called the operation the "Pencil Exchange." In 1914 he moved into his own factory in Jersey City, NJ."

Not a bad model. Mine is *not sharpened and will remain that way. :3

*I recently learned 'unsharpened' isn't a word. Taking the word literally, I wish unsharpening pencils was something I could really do. ^_^

First of all, the addition of any regular presposition to an existing English word makes a valid word. Dictionaries are just too small to list all the possibilities. If I say I have an antikitten ray, nobody's going to stand around going 'An-tikitten? What could this bizzare string of sounds mean?' Unsharpened, nonsharpened missharpened, we can all agree on what those words mean without ever having seen them before. That's how English works. Deal with it.

Second up, th squirrels were vicious little sods. If it weren't for the unwritten laws demanding they bee on the good guy's side they'd be with the rest of the vermin, though I expect even rats wouldn't like their company.

Indeed. :3

I don't see them as good or bad, but as self-interested/hedonistic. Of course, those attributes could be counted as bad or evil.

Lack of care for others is itself a sin. The black ice on the road that makes your car crash is not good or evil because there is no mind, no spirit, no heart there to be. The man that trips you into a lamp post and breaks your jaw, then laughs about it is evil because they have closed their heart to kindness and consideration.

And the books take a very open view of 'Doing bad stuff to bad people isn't bad.' I figured this out around Tagalog. It's a very unchristian message.

Indeed; Christ said to love our enemies. :3

“'You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor[a] and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you'"
-Matt 5:43-44
