Happy Christmas from Giant Rhinos In Space


Happy Christmas from Pip and Annie! These characters are from Giant Rhinos In Space, I'm hoping to work a lot more on this project in the new year.

Character Designs

 
  

These are character designs for a short story comic I'm hoping to find time to draw draw next year. They are college friends. They are all fun to draw because of their over exaggerated features.
