Description Milo loved to fetch the paper, receive belly rubs and eat the scraps off the floor of his trailer home. He was a very happy dog, until one day, he got run over by a truck and lost half of his body. For some reason, Milo did not get taken into the vortex of heaven and now he's stuck, trying to figure out what is his purpose after death.

I have no idea for any real back story, he was a character inspired off a coffee high and a child's drawing. I went with a friend to a small cafe in town called, Ghostlight, which has some interesting decor on the inside and the building is painted blue on the outside. I was there to draw the people, (although I pretended not to if they looked at me) and once everyone left, I noticed a little green dog picture on the wall that was half hidden by a lamp. Just felt like drawing the dog, then redesigned it and now I'm thinking of a supernatural universe to put him in. Can't decide if Milo is really an important character or not since he's just a dog. Making more characters for this would give it more sense.

Obviously not an official character sheet or anything, it's just a character study, without all the sketches I did before hand. :I

I could actually see this turned into a TV show, there's endless potential for a fetch-addicted dog and the line between the living and the dead XD

He also looks ghostly adorable and the kind of character that would be involve in funny antics

Thanks. I think he needs to be surrounded by a lot more characters to help define where all this is coming from.

At first, I thought he was based on your own dog. You did have a dog, correct?

Yeah, but he was a lab mix and died quite a while ago. We guess he died from a massive aneurism; whatever it was, he was gone in less than 5 minutes.
