10.29.10 - Introducing 맥주 (MaekJu)

맥주 means beer in Korean. How did 맥주 get his name... One day he was scavaging for some fruits and just so happened to come upon some fermented ones and got horribly drunk. 맥주 is from Korea (tho I don't think Korea has raccoons... I call Artistic license ^.^) and he's a friendly lil raccoon. When he see newcomer Trevor scared and lonely, he goes to become friends with him. However, Trevor does not speak Korean and they must find a way to understand each other.

I wasn't too happy with the way this one came out. I'm having some issues with bodies at the moment.

This one came out better, I just need to darken it up some.

I hope to turn Trevor's and 맥주 adventures in learning to understand each other, into a project to help me learn Korean. I think focusing on sentences instead of vocabulary might speed up my conversational skills.
