In the 2000s the City of Toronto launched an art campaign Moose in the City. They would stick these realistically-sized moose sculptures all over the city, often in high and prominent places and often covered in various designs (everything from abstract to the realistic). It was inspired by the cow parade art exhibit. I didn't even know Moose in the City was a thing until a few weeks ago. I just figured that the few moose statues I had seen across Toronto were just the same one, having been moved or copied from something else.

I had the idea of making one for Mudes. Here she is, standing atop a building, looking down bitterly at those below. I didn't actually pose her face at all, realising she always looks pissed off. She is a pretty solemn and guarded person. Just comes with the territory of being a warrior I guess. Dunno if any of the original moose statues feature camoflauge but that would be cool.
