Love the sense of exertion in this pic! You really feel Nes putting his weight behind the punch

Irwin delivering a brutal punch to the gut to his opponent, requested by Paly in September's Patreon suggestion box! 🦘🥊

Irwin, a tall and muscular anthropomorphic kangaroo, is in an MMA fighting match with a wolf of a similar body type. He dashes forward, delivering a brutal punch to the stomach, causing a pained and surprised expression on the wolf's face as he's bent over and throttled backward from the force of the punch. The art piece has an upward camera angle to it, and a sketchy art style. Both are wearing gloves and shorts.

The 121st page of Little Runt is out! Here we see Irwin and Nes living out a moment they will remember for the rest of their lives... and that Shadow will too.

Want to see how the story got to this point? Read my whole webcomic for free here: www.deviantart.com/temiree/gall...

The image is the 121th page of Temiree's webcomic, Little Runt. It features a scene where there is a celebration after Taylor Irwin, Nes's father, won the championship belt for the heavyweight division of the Supreme Fighting League. Irwin is shirtless with boxing shorts and gloves on, and is quite muscular. He also has blue tape across the top of his snout. Nes, his son, is wearing a light blue t-shirt and dark shorts.

A fox interviewer in a blue tux and black bowtie leans in as Nes winks at him, saying, "Speaking of, here's my son - Nes! We don't normally let him watch me fight in person. But! We made an exception for this one since it was for the belt, y'know!" He has his hands on either side of his son, who's looking at him with pride and happy astonishment. Nes shouts, "You did awesome, Dad!"

The fox pushes his mic towards Nes. "Do you wanna be just like him when you grow up?" he asks. Nes throws his arms out wide. "DUH! He's the coolest Dad in the whole world!" Irwin reacts emotionally to the statement, rubbing a gloved paw against the side of his neck. For some reason, the second panel has a CRT/VHS effect to it, with lower contrast, dimmed colors, and fuzziness.

The scene suddenly cuts to a back view of Young Shadow, wearing a torn blue tank top and white shorts, is sitting in a dark living room, which looks somewhat empty and in a state of uncleanliness and disrepair: the couch has tears, a panel is broken on the wood-paneled wall, and the carpet is dirty. All you can see is Young Shadow from behind, sitting on the floor as the TV illuminates the outside of his form. His body language, with his lowered ears, heavily implies Young Shadow isn't feeling good. The fox interviewer turns to the camera and grins through the television as Irwin shows his son the belt he won in the background, "After all that fighting, what a wonderful scene playing out here in the middle of the SFL Championship ring! Can't you just feel the love?"

Thanks! It means a lot to me that you like it! I was tempted to draw Shadow and Henry arguing, but I was in a jovial mood, so I drew this instead. Maybe next time though... 🤔

As for how that song would sound, wonder no more! Henry's a great guitarist! XD

Henry: ...Well fought! *Offers a paw to help him up*

SwayzeOne @swayzeone.bsky.social · 29d

What started as a doodle turned into this. I know I've said it before, but Henry's a goofball when he's not punching people .So here's Henry and @temiree.bsky.social characters Ryan and Nes.

Brawlo and Ryan are having a little sing-song... Nes is wondering when they became so buddy-buddy lol

Henry is playing his guitar and Nes expects a calming song. Instead, Henry sings a meme and Ryan is in on the joke. Nes deduces that these two were plotting this from the beginning just to mess with him.

The 120th page of Little Runt is out, and Irwin has to pause the interview for a very important reason!

Want to read the story so far? My webcomic is available for free here: www.deviantart.com/temiree/gall...

The image features the 120th page of Temiree's webcomic, Little Runt. On it features a suave anthropomorphic fox in a blue tuxedo with a black bow tie who is is a host/interviewer standing the ring after a fight; a muscular anthropomorphic kangaroo named Taylor Irwin who's wearing black MMA shorts and gloves; and a young kid kangaroo named Nes who's the son of the other kangaroo and wears a blue shirt and dark shorts.

In the first panel, the fox is interviewing Irwin, who responds to a question from the previous page, "It’s got to be having a son. It changed... he changed my whole world. He’s given me so much motivation to train and give it my all, cause..." He looks up wistfully. He continues, "I want to be a hero for him. A superhero even, taking down the ‘bad guys’ trying to hurt me, and I got to win to do that, right? Every fight had that on the line, so-" Suddenly, he's interrupted, "DAD!"

Irwin notices his son at the side of the ring, scrambling to get into it with his mother beside him, Irwin holds his arms out with his victory belt over his shoulder and an excited expression on his face. "HEY! There’s my joey! Get over here!" he shouts.

In the final panel, Irwin grins with overwhelming happiness as his son leaps into his arms, knocking him back a little from his weight and momentum.

SwayzeOne @swayzeone.bsky.social · Aug 18

Thank you!

A sneak peek into the future, after Henry and Nes have their battle, Henry's next opponent will be a maned wolf, August First.

When August First emigrated from Brazil, his parents botched on his paperwork, putting his birth date where his name should've gone. Yes, his middle name is "The." 😆

A model sheet of August First, showing his full body and four expressions: Winking, talking, roughed-up, nervous. August First saying, "I'm a holiday" is a joke he likes to tell, riffing off of his name.

The 119th page of Little Runt is out, and here we jump back about sixteen years to the very night that Nes's Dad won the heavyweight title of the SFL. What meaning will this scene bring to the story?

You can read my entire webcomic for free here! www.deviantart.com/temiree/gall...

The image is the 119th page of the webcomic, Little Runt. It's the beginning of another flashback, where Taylor Irwin, Nes's Dad, has just won the heavyweight title of the Supreme Fighting League. He cheers as he stands on the ropes at one corner, holding the belt above his head in esctacy. The foreground has photographers all taking pictures, his brown bear coach holding up a #1 finger as he cheers him on from the side, the rhino referee wrapping things up behind him, a rat production coordinator with headphones shouting at someone nearby, and a wolf cameraman and fox presenter strolling into the ring. Bright lights from above flare up as Irwin celebrates, flash bulbs go off in the crowd, and everyone is cheering.

"And there we have it, the new heavyweight champion of the world... TAAAYLOOORR IRWIIINNN!!" the suave-looking fox presenter shouts, wearing a blue tuxedo with a black bowtie. He continues, "I know some of ya’ll out there were blabbin’ he made a big mistake electing for his tail to be targeted for this fight! And yet, it was his tail that secured the knockout blow on Roarin’ Ricky!" Roarin' Ricky can be seein the bottom left corner of the frame, a beat-up looking lion who's looking sad and disappointed in himself as a female lion looks to comfort him.

The fox presenter leans forward with the mic as Irwin gets off the ropes, "Incredible fight, there, Taylor. How’s it feel?" Irwin responds as he rubs his head and has the belt over his left shoulder, having a look seemingly of disbelief. He pants as he catches his breath, "Unbelievable... I thought my career was over ten fights ago, but here I am? A champion? Are you kidding me?" The fox responds with curiosity, "What changed?" Behind them, a tiger bodyguard looks to ward off a polar bear in a green vest who's getting a little too excited and a little too close.

Coming from you, this means a lot. I originally started this as a quick project, but as it grew, I really started to hone in on the craftsmanship. The stomp was added in because I felt that Nes would really want to assert dominance in that moment. Maybe that stomp will show up in Little Runt? lol
