This is another concept sketch by  kenket for a new character I started developing late last year. I wanted to reflect my love of cars and racing in a new character that would eventually become a partial fursuit. Well, here's Chitwood. He's a striped hyena that lives for stock car racing and stunt driving.

When I'm working on a new character concept. Kenket is always the first artist I go to for sketches. She has a way of latching onto ideas and enhancing the personality. Her arts have been instrumental for my characters' development. Chitwood is no exception. ^_^

I think this is my fave of the first set of sketches. I adore how his whisker is singed, suggesting he just came out of a crash of something. Heh heh. ^_~
