#leporidae cowboys

[saturncoyote]

Decided that this year i'm gonna work on more original projects so here's one

Concepts for a cowboy-ish universe where all the characters are desert-adjacent animals; the protagonists are a desert cottontail who commits arson related crimes and a desert hare who's just here for the ride

Star Fox 3rd Gen Trio Redesign Ideas

Marcus McCloud:

·Of course still keep his fox fur in that beautiful azure blue shade as his mother Krystal McCloud's. With some of that golden brownish-white fur like his father Fox McCloud's. Definitely keep the apple green eyes on Marcus. Skinny, muscular & built. Now for the new differences should be are having his golden brownish-white hairdo be a slight spikey mohawk at the back while at the front keep the signature swirl. & Have Marcus actually being so tall, his height can almost reach senior advisor Falco Lombardi's. Imagine Nintendo revealing that James McCloud, Marcus' paternal grandfather was very tall, but unfortunately......his son did not inherited that height at all & instead was so short(but not too short). So.......the grandson ends up being tall, meaning that......it skipped a generation......much to Fox's dismay. Marcus McCloud's age: 19 years old.

·For his Star Fox jumpsuit, what if instead of the orange, Marcus could wear gold? Think about it, gold & blue are a rich colorful combination. In fact, I think those colors fit Marcus more. Blue fur & a golden jumpsuit. Red bandana around his neck too please. I also think he'd definitely not only wear those familiar black fingerless gloves with the golden knuckle studs, but also have his jacket sleeves rolled up too hehe, like father, like son. & Put a blue upside-down triangular stone on the top of Marcus' metal boots.

Tripp Toad:

·He should still have orange skin & sky blue eyes. The orange skin should be from great-grandma Toad's & that could be why granduncle Grippy Toad is orange. As for the sky blue eyes, obviously from father Slippy Toad. Although, imagine if Slippy were to have hair, but just shaves it off, then I'd definitely see the green frog being a red-head(like a carrot top or even ginger), so that his 1st born son can be a red-head too. Now for the only add-on for Tripp's redesign should be freckles, which can be a trait that he'd inherit from his mother Amanda Toad who should have freckles for her redesign by Nintendo. Keep him still round & short too. Have his official name be revealed as Tripp Toad. His age: 18 years old(19 around the fall season).

·I am thinking that his jumpsuit should still be blue except in a different shade like perhaps Tripp would look good in neon blue, you know like one of the joy-cons for the Switch. Red bandana around his neck. What do you think? Dark brown fingerless gloves with silver knuckle studs. Put a green rectangular stone on his metal boots. Oh & definitely make Tripp keep that cowboy hat.

Ruby Grey:

·& Finally for Peppy Hare's granddaughter, imagine her's being the most different out of the 3rd gen trio's redesigns. What if when her father is finally revealed, Nintendo will actually make the father of Peppy's granddaughter turning out to be.............Bill Grey? Yup Bill Grey x Lucy Hare who'd be Mrs.Lucina Hare-Grey btw. Pairing name: BILUCY. If this ends up being the case in upcoming SF games, then that would make Peppy's grandchild a hybrid character of half-canidae from her bulldog father & half-leporidae from her rabbit mother. Her redesign can be of grey & cream-colored fur, the grey from Bill & the cream from Lucy's secondary fur below her brownish-grey fur, which should be Peppy's daughter's redesign for when Luce is reintroduced in future SF games. Make the bilucy daughter have really short cherry blossom pink hair, which should be from Lucy, style up the sakura-colored tuft in a style of curly bangs. & What would add such a lovely touch is giving Peppy's granddaughter fringes on her forehead shaped into a heart, you know like Chibiusa Tsukino aka Sailor Chibi Moon. She has a pretty slender body. She's a bit shorter than Marcus & much taller than Tripp. However, much to her biggest dismay, she also has a really.....small....chest(yeah unfortunately, she has a complex about her under-endowed "assets")& that can be a feature possibly inherited from mama Lucy. Now as she'd be a hybrid, Ruby would actually look more of a rabbit than a dog unlike other hybrids that show traits from both parents like my ocs, Violett Lombardi & Ace Lombardi who are the pheasant-domestic shorthair gryphon children of Falco Lombardi & his wife Katt Monroe who'd be Mrs.Kathrene Monroe-Lombardi. Because of this, a lot of the Lylatians would believe that Ruby is a purebred bunny until they realize that Bill who'd obviously be a General in the next gen storyline is her biological father. Then there will be some slight differences that Ruby were to have that you wouldn't see from a rabbit. First off, are the ears, they look like rabbit ears that are floppy like a bulldog's. Secondly, she has dog claws for her hands. Third, she has canine feet. Fourth, Ruby was born with canine-shaped eyes except they are crimson red like Lucy's. & Finally, her fluffy cottontail that wags like all tails of canines, & actually looks like a shape of a Q-tip(you know the ones you use to clean your ears). So Peppy's hybrid granddaughter looks mostly like a rabbit with some features from half of her bulldog genes. She also has her mother's bunny face(I changed my mind about her having her father's doggy face). I think Ruby, Ruby Grey(middle name: Vivian) should be her official name. & For her age, 18 years old.

·& Now for what she wears when working in Team Star Fox, instead of that bodysuit that she wore in one of the non-canon endings in Command, why not Ruby just wears the exact jumpsuit as any members of the Star Fox team? Ruby's jumpsuit can be cherry blossom pink especially to match her hair. Put a red bandana around her neck. (Yeah I think it's a tradition for members of StarFox to wear the red neckerchief.) Give her French pink gloves that have a yellow-cuffed style for the wrists, & a crimson red dog paw print on the front of the gloves. & Embellish the top of Ruby's metal boots with a red heart-shaped stone.

Cowboys are frequently secretly fond of each other or something like that

Rabbit's feet were also considered lucky because of their association with the dead body of a criminal. According to Newbell Niles Puckett, a 20th-century folklorist, “the more wicked the person who is dead, the more effective the charm associated with his remains."
