Very rough and quickie. I wanna do a more refined one later. :)

Vinci Karenza, aka V2, a story character. Descendant of the Vinci you guys are familiar with. :) He is often told by his grandmother, Greer, about how he resembles his namesake (or nicknamesake in this case!) and one day, decides to do a little family research about the guy. He even goes so far as to start wearing his hair in braids!

At the same time, he often feels as though he is pressured to live up to someone else's name while he's trying to figure out just who -he- is.

This was a personal challenge. I wanted to design a character that was similar in many ways to Vinci, but at the same time make him his own person so that he's still easily distinguishable. Actually, I think V2's got Vinci beat on the cuteness factor. :)

V2 considers himself a raccoon, but he's actually part rabbit, which accounts for the strange markings. As you can see, there's just the barest suggestion of rings on his tail, and his mask is an odd rosey color. He's also got the soft fur of a rabbit and a habit of wiggling his nose. And rumor has it he has a sweetheart who goes by What's His Name.
