Well to be fair, it's not so much a concept as much remaking a character form a children's book series from a long time ago. I think I was feeling nostalgic because I remembered an animated TV show that Busytown had back when I was just a wee baby in the 90's?

Either way it was a good experiment on my end because it gave me the opportunity to dick around with colors and figure out what would look good. This was before I began really practicing dithering. (In fact, a lot of the reuploads that have the gradient are really modern afterthoughts from when I initially made these.)
