continuing to explore the character of Bruce, Pan's childhood rival and fellow little shit

still learning to how draw him, pardon the inconsistencies. Moving from left to right, from the top we have:



-Lil Brucie finds an abandoned baby chick one day playing alone near the shore. After thoroughly making sure nopony else is around to see, he sneaks it home and calls it his baby, feeding her a steady diet of lizards and canned anchovies. He names her Pearlie and dotes on her like crazy (so long as nopony is watching, of course)



-oh no bruce tried to sneak his baby birdie to school but here comes dorky nosy pandora no must protect pearlie from over exuberant draconequus brat girl



-Pearlie all grown up. She's a sea hawk and trained to help Bruce fish. She wuvs her master and smothers him in feathery nuzzles and fish barf (Bruce doesn't mind)



-haha bruce your only real friend in the world is a dumb bird, what a loser



-Bruce catches a great white shark pup for tagging, as part of his future job at a marine biology lab

His character is partly an homage to my favorite conservationist ever, Steve Irwin (rip), so I guess Bruce is from whatever the Equestrian equivalent of Australia is, has a marked 'strayan accent



-exploring the visual elements of Bruce's character, it's amazing how adding thick manbrows adds so much more jerkassery to his face. Also stallions are hard to draw urgh. His face is constantly set to either scowl or smirk, depending on circumstance
