Yeah, sorta kinda

Here's a couple of scans:




The first scan is the very first sketch I drew of him (very roughly on a scrap of old paper ), long before I even thought about trying to model him in 3D.

The second pic is probably the 3rd or 4th pic I drew of him, looking pretty much finished. It was about here that I actually contemplated modeling him up .

He did get modified slightly from the transition to 3D, most notibly his ears, a lot smaller and straighter. And with cel shading, he did lose a bit of detail around the chest area. I also decided to make him look fatter in the final version, with thicker legs and shorter overall; even though I had planed on him being skinning, just with a cow pot belly .
