Astor and Sego

Here is two characters from my book Eyeseffendee. I love how this turned out! This is pretty much how I imagine them, except Astor's a bit less bulky. Oops. And he has more of a mane.

I know coyotes don't look very different in real life, but I love giving each of my characters a unique personality and build and stuff.

And I want to give a little factoid thing about both of them real quick.

One day she found out he liked her and she hated him for a while. But then she realized she liked him as well so she opened up and they became friends.

If s/he could be compared to 1 popular character, who would it be?: Tai Lee from avatar, sort of kind of but not really.
