For those that missed it, the winner of the “Name It And Win It Contest #01″ is Eirewolf, who named the creature a “Puff-Tailed Whiffersnap“!

I think this is clearly a Puff-Tailed Whiffersnap — because you only get a whiff of its knock-you-out scent glands before it truly knocks you out with its cleverly disguised whip of a tail. Only if you threaten it, of course. :-D

This means that Eirewolf with get a free, original painting of this little critter! However, since I really enjoyed the “Mokiho” from Marie:

It’s a Mokiho, “mo” for mouse because of the small little ears and puffy face, “ki” for squirrel because of the fuzzy tail (“qui” didn’t sound good) and “ho” for horse because of the overall look of a pony. ^-^

And the adorable name “Squiralinda” from Joe:

Squiralinda! She’s a jaunty, styling pretty not-quite-a-squirrel.

Both Joe and Marie will get an original sketch of this little critter as thanks for participating and posting such great entries! Happy MONDAY!

This is the first ever “Name It And Win It” competition game. I draw a random creature, and you give the creature a name and a little reason why. I don’t mean like “Joey” or “Mike”, tho these be fine, strapping names. I mean What IS it? It is a Wolfertupper, a Tippernapper, a Fuzzywuzzer…what the heck is this thing I drew, because I have no idea. And then I need you to tell me why its named that – a little fact about the creature. For example, I might name this thing a Ponitty, because it seems to be part pony and part kitty, or…I might name it a Dandypanders, cause it eats dandelions. See where I’m going with this?
Leave your idea in the comments in this post (either actual blog or facebook will do) by next Monday the 15th. The winning name and reason/creature fact will get a free, original, finished painting of this little guy.
