Evil Taxman

Thought I'd share the latest character from the graphic novel, I really enjoyed casting this one- My veterinarian graciously allowed me to shoot some reference shots while he was doing his annual family house call-

I was stumped on the character until I had to take one of the cats in to the clinic- I had the "aha" moment then, but it took awhile for me to gather up the courage to ask him to do it-

He was perfect- and not the least bit evil-

What do you guys think? Does he need a feather quill pen under that top thumb to break up the white space, or should I leave it as is?
