Pen and acrylic armadillo

Inspired by recent events, I drew this little armadillo holding a flower in the trans pride colors.

Before I drew it, I had to look up the state animal of Texas. Did you know they have a state large mammal, state small mammal, and state flying mammal? The armadillo was a shoo-in, obviously.

I couldn’t find my watercolors so I used watered down acrylic paints. It doesn’t really show up in this pic but the paint happens to be pearlescent, which is kind of fun. @Jae3ird is going to digitize it for me later.
