Chickenhound - Tumblr Posts
RAE! I didn't know you were on Tumblr hello! Also, wonderful drawing, I sure do hate Chickenhound (even if he is very cool)! Nice work :)

Here’s a humanized version of Chickenhound and Sela! This one’s a doodle based on a chat I had in @lostmousemaid ‘s server about how incredibly smart Chickenhound is, and how immensely respectful he is of his mother at every given opportunity :’) /s
You’ve awakened my vendetta against Chickenhound. Shame on him. What a jerk.

I like Sela’s scarf… foreshadowing. Great art!! Have I mentioned how much I hate Chickenhound though because I hate him so much ☺️

Sela the Healer and Son Chickenhound
... soon to be known as Slagar the Slaver... the little turd. XD
Found this half-finished drawing hanging out in a binder, and so got around to adding color to it finally! I really tried to show Sela as an exasperated, though perhaps brow-beating, momma fox just trying to run the Family Hustle... meanwhile, Chickenhound's set on being a little turd. XD
Thoughts on Slagar
I was talking with my lovely partner about Slagar the Cruel. He hasn't read the books, but he's absorbed enough from my ramblings and things to form his own thoughts (:)). Slagar always seems to be a fan favorite of those who only know just some about Redwall, which I think is great. Slagar is great (awful).
The conversation started with me saying "Do you remember Chickenhound/Slagar?"
He says "Of course. He's the one with the cool checkered mask right?"
"Yes he's the one with the mask. So, same dude [Chickenhound and Slagar (spoilers, haha)], right? I HATE Chickenhound, but I think Slagar is so great I love him."
So that's point one, I think it's kind of funny about me. Slagar is so fun and evil and camp, but I will just never ever forgive Chickenhound for being stupid and the worst.
Then, boyfriend had some really interesting thoughts that I'd like to share! Thoughts from a new audience, if you will.
"The checkered mask and cape is so cool because it completely conceals the very defining features of a fox, like the shape of the head and the bright orange color, but it does it by replacing it with such a striking pattern that it also erases the shape of him. But it’s so unique and so bold, even more so than a fox. He stands out so much yet is so mysterious and anonymous. Very fey." I said, "AND it conceals his broken face. So it replaces something he hates with something recognizably scary but also costumey. I don't know how to explain, but it’s powerful and monstrous because it’s so fun but at the same time he’s so cruel." Boyfriend says: "It does more than that, it makes him a new kind of beautiful. (I’m just projecting and romanticizing though it’s your book you know more.)"
I wanted to share because I thought this was so interesting! Thank you, goodbeasts all!
Yes yes yes; this is amazing, I love your art so much
