July 18 - Jojo Rhino

"Storms make trees take deeper roots."

~ Dolly Parton

In the far reaches of the Mistless Wastes, Dawgs are famed for taming armored giants. Each Dawg is matched with a rhino calf from birth, their connection growing deep.

It is only during the fiercest storms, when thunder cracks like the toppling of great trees, that Dawg and rhino learn to master their fear. Their first terrified cries become a shared roar, a bond - no longer terrified together the roar becomes their battle cry as they charge together across the plains.

The baby rhino was a design shared by Tobi Twist from his Jojo Cuties collection.  I wanted to play with a couple different face ideas though because it felt more .. "oh I see" instead of "oh!  i see!".
