This was heavily inspired by @happi-dreams spongedog critterpants art. Spongebob still cracks me up to this day and I love the Smiling Critters (DogDay especially) so this was very fun lol
The boys as young adults (20 years old) in the TPoJ AU.
I’ll admit, I wanted to color Kickin’s “hair” red, but as I prepared coloring him, I studied many different chicken breeds and decided to stick to him with that “hair.” Because there is a thing called Polish Chickens and decided to base his species on them.
Bubba’s design took me a while to decide. I was wondering if I should give him tusks. And I ended up giving him tusks because male elephants should have them.

After seeing @crazycakeparrotart 's lovely addition to the other post, I couldn't help myself! I had to draw the doggos interacting - though my DogDay might still be a little too big by comparison lol
