Because Smallpaws can easily look like monkeys, boys or just baby bigfoots, I had a hard time trying to figure a formula to them. Also I wanted to add a bit of sophistication to the characters- smallpaws are the complete opposite of bigfoots- they are small, dainty, clever, but pretty dweeby- I'm thinking Paul Simon. I like the idea that these small paws have necks in contrast to bigfoot, and that they look like they're wearing dark turtlenecks and jeans- to me they feel like 1960's beatnik boys and that's exactly the kind of creature I want them to be, the little ones in cafes smoking, listening to poetry and hating on the bourgeois.
