Description Okay, as much as I want to keep changing I NEED to settle on a colour.
I keep switching between bright orange, reddish orange and greyish/black...
But with that rate I will never settle, and thus never finish his design, so HERE IS HIS FINAL DESIGN!
Although I might change the points of his ears.

Samson 'Red', the Irish brute, huge as he is quiet, and nothing more but a mere henchman with a Glasgow smile.

You settled for red aye  

I have to say that the color really suits Samson as an individual.
The stereotypical Irish man can be a bit colorful with a burning passion after all. 

On that note I think that by having Samson not looking grey, it helps him stick out from the cast, and he does seem a little bit more down to earth. I could easily imagine him being good with children, but a scary son of a cat when he is on the job. In that regard I think the phrase: "actions speaks louder than words" really suits Samson. He can appear scary and friendly, depending on the situation and his body language. It gives him bit more layers in my opinion  

I could easily imagine him getting an infamous nickname like: The red butcher from Dublin or Samson "Lights Out" Red

What a handsome squirrel! ^^ I love his coloring, very Irish. :3 And his eyes are lovely as well. I MUST SNUGGLE DAT TAIL.

TopHatTurtle In reply to WingsOfASong [2014-04-20 20:00:44 +0000 UTC]

Tried to keep him as stereotypical Irish as is possible with a small critter
AND YES! DAT TAIL! Although, I have to consider whether to keep the tail entirely red or leave the white underpart.

WingsOfASong In reply to TopHatTurtle [2014-04-20 20:10:22 +0000 UTC]

I like the underpart. ^^ I'd keep it, but he's your squirrel. Do what you think is best! :3 He's so fluffy, I MUST SNUGGLE.

Okay, I MIGHT change his 'beard' a bit... Not the design or anything, but I might move the white fur a bit further down, so it looks a but more like a beard, but also so his scars are more visible and easier to spot.
But everything else (almost) finalised.

...Yeah, I think I can draw Samson now. If I can draw Candy's brother and father, I think I finally got males down! He likes Edgar Allen Poe, correct?

TopHatTurtle In reply to Yesnoshroom [2014-04-20 21:02:48 +0000 UTC]

I am SO happy to hear that seriously! Not just Samson, although that excites me beyond belief, but I can't WAIT to see Candys pa and brother!

And yes, he does, although he doesn't really know Allen Poe... He knows his works, and likes them, but wouldn't be able to name the author.

Great, I got a fun idea for a picture then! 

They're nothing special, really.  I'm still ironing out William (her brother's) personality. All I know is he's overprotective of his sisters and is kinda a douche at times.

Welcome back!  I missed you!   My world is bleak when you're away!  Rainbow full of squirrels!

Oh, you can disreguard the note: I just ended up doing a few, so I'll let you pick one once I finish them all.

This looks great, I'm really stoked about the colour scheme.

And I'm so happy to see how you made a squirrel OC! So amazing!
He looks amazing and I adore his personality and background that you shared so far.

It must be fun to draw tails like that...

TopHatTurtle In reply to Yaraffinity [2014-04-17 08:22:11 +0000 UTC]

His tail IS fun (and miles easier than mice-tails ) but I actually have a tendency of forgetting it I need to play around with it some more, and use it's full potential. 
And yeah, I settled for the reddish orange instead, slightly more muted but I can keep his pet-name
I still need to throw oc's after him, and make him interact with those characters some more, to develop his personality further.

Yaraffinity In reply to TopHatTurtle [2014-04-17 08:34:15 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, do make him interact with other OCs. With Lyn! I just can picture it already.
