Description Looking through old files, I noticed one with various sketches of odd creatures. So yeah...they were doodles that eventually led to the design of the Linkha, the smaller mouse-like race on Kheji. Hard to believe some of the alternate ideas...

The final design was shown before, but I colored it this time. This is actually the coloring of Steve, Calcite's little buddy. He has his fur dyed in a color that that matches Calcite's fur dye.

EDIT: My apologies, I am an IDIOT. The doodles I found before came two years (2016) after the Linkha design was finalized. Not sure what made me think they were before that point...I still don't really know what they were about. Regardless, the doodles that are still here are ACTUALLY what led to the Linkha design.

Less "eevee"-like, and more it's own ball of fluff. Nice~

Indeed...it almost looks like a cross between a mouse and a ladybug.

Honestly, it wouldn't have surprised me if Linkha started life as part of your Darwin Project series.  :3

Nah, Linkha didn't really come to mind that far back.

Ah, now it makes sense. I'm guessing now that's where the small random drawings like
and ended up coming from.

Actually those predate the doodles by about two years.

...Wait, no! I'm getting things mixed up....

"Strike that. Reverse it."

Gotcha. I just wasn't sure since both the first Linkha picture and those small drawing were posted around the same time.

Ah yeah, now I gotcha. Common mistake. Think the mixup might have come from this...

That's probably it, yeah.

Either way, still a very interesting perspective into the creation of the Linkha. I really should come up with Lead's Linkha companion at some point. I have a feeling he'd name him "Pencil" for some reason.

I'd wonder how the Linkha would feel about a name like that. XD

I think if they end up really bonding, I would hope they see it as suiting. I mean, you can't have a "Pencil" without "Lead".

Cute! I've said it before and I'll say it again, I love seeing how characters have evolved over time.
