Discovered! Upper skull fossil of the biggest rodent known to walk the earth! [link]

You can tell I somewhat disagree with the artist's interpritation!

According to the report, these guys' skulls were about 53 cm (approx 20.9 inches) in diameter! I rounded up to 21 inches, and measured across. There we have it!

Lots of fun to make, this was. I gotta say, I'm tempted to start drawing 'myself' like this at least, in the face. It's not that much of a change, plus the way the eyes are would be more accurate to a real rat. Oh- and big thanks to my buddy, *Temiree for suggesting teeth sticking out! It adds to the character, though I'm not sure it'd work for the anthro Red.

I think it'd be fun to have a 'semi-fictional' base for myself, as I can change and tweak at will. Besides that, I've always identified with larger animals like bears. Sometimes more than rats. This is a good compromise, no?

Lemme know what you think!
