Description Based around an ongoing Redwall-based RP with my good friend
I don't really know whether to call this fan-art (being Redwall) or original (being my own character)

While staying at Redwall during a time of trouble and facing the threat of Cluny the Scourge and his roving hordes, Danbuster finally gets a chance to do his bit to protect the Abbey.
Assisting with a stealthy raiding mission, our crazy hare is finally persuaded to lose his usual garish clobber and put on a more understated costume that would allow him to blend in with the scenery.
Though keeping his scarf and sporran, Danbuster has borrowed a decently-long tunic and hooded cloak from Basil Stag Hare's old civilian wardrobe, and after some extensive training is proving himself a pretty decent shot with the longbow.

Drawn by hand and scanned in digital form.
Traced, coloured and shaded with FireAlpaca.
Titles, logos and extra shadows added with Photoshop.

Danbuster is my own character.
Redwall and its characters were the creation of the late great Brian Jacques.

Danbuster: Hmmm... anyway, is that your usual outfit?
(Just to remind me, how is Stumptooth dressed?)

Danbuster: Heh, very stylish. Certainly shows your physique too... it's even more revealing than this borrowed Redwall tunic of mine too!
(which hangs to the thighs, covering all but the arms and legs, with his scut poking out under the back)

Stumptooth: Welp, I'd rather have a little green vest than wear one of those little green dresses the Redwall mice wear!

Danbuster: Ah well, this isn't one of those mouse-habit things... actually, I borrowed this tunic from Basil Stag Hare, seeing as how my usual blue kilt and jump were both too modern and inappropriate for helping with a stealth mission... even had to lose the gaudy undershorts! First time I've gone commando, really...

Danbuster: Heh yeah... feels rather nice, actually, getting some fresh breeze around... myself... especially in this Redwall summer!  Of course, I chose something fairly long... just in case there are times when having fur isn't enough...

Danbuster: Heh yeah, I'm a cartoon animal too... but I'm also male, and I'm a hare... so, as lagomorphs go, I'm probably unusual in that I'm still a virgin...

Stumptooth: Well, Kelaiah doesn't know what *my* love life was like, so he can't type out any response to that.

Kelaiah In reply to DCLeadboot [2017-11-18 21:02:09 +0000 UTC]

Stumptooth: Eh? I wasn't complaining, no need to feel sorry for me. ^^ Heh, though if *you're* feeling down about bein' single, I figure you could find yourself a nice haremaid among all those Long Patrollers I've heard tell about.

DCLeadboot In reply to Kelaiah [2017-11-18 22:34:50 +0000 UTC]

Danbuster: Heh, yeah... in fact, during our stay at Redwall in the RP, I was starting to get interested in one of the ladies... but I doubt we could make a go of it, since I belong in my own dimension and Alex is concerned we'd damage the "world order" or something... he believes I'd cause a time paradox if I had a relationship with a Redwall hare... although on the other paw, I might be encouraged to find a girlfriend in my own world through this brief Redwall relationship...?

Stumptooth: Mayhap this haremaid's got a double living in your own universe? I know *I've* got a double in another universe. They call 'im Ferret-Kel.

Thanks, Bfox!
Really wanted to make it look good, for showing how he'd look in Redwallian garb!

queenmoreta In reply to ??? [2017-11-01 22:38:17 +0000 UTC]

Heh, thanks very much!
He's certainly ready to kick some major tail!

Danbuster: We'll see if I can get one right between the eyes... in Rise of the Tomb Raider, it's usually 25XP for a Stealth Headshot!

It's been years since I last read or look back at Redwall.

Heh, okay? So that's a bit of nostalgia?

Danbuster: As a modern-day hare, it's certainly an adventure to visit another world... and also a new experience to wear another alternate costume!

Hatchetstein4Real In reply to DCLeadboot [2017-11-01 15:48:58 +0000 UTC]

It's a pity that Redwall has ceased since Brian was gone 6 years back.

Indeed... and a shame Nelvana cancelled their animated series too...
Though I had been given to understand that there's finally a videogame on the way, now that he's no longer around to nix the idea... I don't know what to expect yet, as it's only early-access and I'd rather wait for the final product!
