I didn't feel like drawing a real-life species, so I went with a Neopet species instead, with the obvious choice being the Meerca!
Unfortunately I didn't quite know how to shade this one, so I tried to be as conservative as possible. I even left out the cast shadow. I'm not all that happy with what's there, but at least there's some depth to it now. I definitely overdid it on the Negg. Also the Negg is way too tiny in proportion to the Meerca.
