Who are you Calling Chicken?

MWC (Mario the War Chicken) and I date way back. I don't remember exactly when I started drawing him but I do know he was around back when I had one of the best friends in the world that this wolf could ask for, a rooster. His name was Mario and he was a BB Red Bantam. Mario was awesome. Before and after school we would hang out. He would travel places with us like Elkader Iowa and in the lower partion of Minnesota. He would join us at the dinner table and play video games with yours truly. He was a pet and a wonderful friend. To this day I miss him dearly but his memory will always live on in this character that I had created so long ago. (My guess would be when I was in 7th grade or 2001).

MWC was around when Mario was around and heavily inspired by my two loves at the time: My chicken and Zelda. As you can see he carries the OoT version of the Master Sword and Hylian shield. Many years ago I was actually going to create his own weaponry just in case I ever turned him into a story (or in my dreams) a video game. I had him going on many adventures, many Zelda inspired yet some that were not so much. The villians and princess were all BB Reds but MWCs sidekicks ranged from a Sabertooth Tiger to a couple dragon brothers and even a gryphon.

Once Mystic came to be MWC and his clan were put on the back burners for awhile until now! I have updated him quiet a bit since he was last drawn.
