Illustrations based on Aesop's Fable "The Dog, the Cock, and the Fox."
The Sky Captain
The Sky Captain, named Tobias, has a slight gambling problem...and a long history of being bad at poker. Despite his lack of skill, he still tries his best, and when trying his best doesn't work, he grabs his money and runs. Very fast. In the opposite direction of the current gambling den. Usually with a bunch of angry thugs chasing him. He really does try to stay on the right side of the law, but sometimes he has to do what he has to do to survive, and if that's swindling really, really bad guys out of money that wasn't theirs in the first place, The Sky Captain is willing to risk it.
THUMBNAILS
Originally, I was going to do depict people in this illustration, but as it went on, more details about the project were revealed and I decided to swap to anthropomorphic. The highlighted thumbnail is the one we liked, but decided to change to see more of the character's face and add more action.
