Bio

Silver Sheep is based on the sheep in the Wicked! story series by Paul Jennings and Morris Gleitzman. I read Wicked as a teen and the cover art for the third book in the series I thought was very cool. The story of the steel sheep was something that fascinated me.

Silver Sheep is an anthro Suffolk sheep. He has the ability to turn his fleece into steel wool like that of a steel wool scourer. Silver Sheep lives and works in a Communist dictatorship with other anthro Sheep. He works as a Zoid pilot. Zoids are large robot animals from the anime of the same name.

Sheep have a collective nature so I thought of what a society of anthropomorphic sheep would be like. It would be a communist nation or something along the lines of the Japanese philosophy of valuing the group over the individual. A communist dictatorship setting offers great artistic ideas and also fits in with a militaristic pilot of animal robots so I went with that.
