Jocks and Nerds


As I went about sketching rabbits and turtles, I was suddenly struck with inspiration about the symbolism in the fable.
The more I thought about it, the more I became convinced that this is what Aesop meant.

Fun character designs Peter. Good inspiration on the idea too. I like the inequality of their physicality, etc., especially knowing that the nerds win in the end. Go nerds!

If the rabbit doesn't make it to the pros, he's gonna be working for the turtle. Then the rabbit's wife is going to leave him for the turtle. It's a sad reality.
