Behind the Scenes: Creating Sixby the Deer

Sixby the Deer was born from a simple but delightful drawing—a cute and funny deer with six antlers and a little bird puffed up on one of them. The moment I saw it, I fell in love with the idea.

But Sixby wasn’t alone! The little bird sitting on his antlers became Tweet, his cheerful companion.
