Pit Crew Character Explorations: Chord (Chubby Dog Dude)

I've been thinking a lot about the Pit Crew Dudes and how I'd design them now-I kind of drew them on a whim in the original animation and then had to figure out how they'd work from different angles/in a 3d space after the fact for the following animations. 

This led to these sketches! Here I'm trying to figure out the chubby shiba dude, now named Chord ^^ He's got a little more attitude and fluff to him now and his kinky party boy energy should hopefully be shining through a little more. 

I might do some similar character explorations of the other 2 Pit Crew Dudes after this, but for now I'm going to get back to coloring the Star Fox animation.

Hope you have a good weekend!
