A very belated Valentine for  Squeakie, the world's cutest sugar fueled bat!

No, I didn't forget, I started work on this a few weeks before Valentine's, but I wasn't able to finish it until now (due to a combination of work, germs, unfamiliar tech, and rust).

I started out with a much more realistic anthro horse head but the results were way more creepy than "daww". So then I tried to simplify it and make it look more cartoony... which only made it creepier but with a Chuck Jones flavor.

In the end I settled on an even cartoon-ier/generic design (prognosis - my animal anatomy needs work).

 Squeakie loves it though which is the important thing, and this image is a milestone in that it's the first time I've ever used a Tablet (though the image is about 50% tablet 50% mouse... not counting the line art).
