LITTLE SNARL

  

 Snarl is a Pokémon-concept of an Etsy customer on mine. He recently sent me a drawing of himself as an Anime character. The character’s name is Tez Yami. Snarl is his little companion. Since I made smaller version of some of the other characters of his, I though it was only right that I make a small version of Snarl to go with the Tez Yami doll.
