There's a kid at my church who each Sunday requests me to draw things for him. A few months ago he asked me to draw him cobra, and I couldn't say no.* Of course, this being me I went insane with it and decided to draw a scene from Kipling's Rikki-Tikki-Tavi. Here Rikki speaks to Nag unaware of his even more deadly wife.




*Because I'd just said no to drawing Jesus or a ten-headed dragon. You can only say no to a cute kid only so many times a day.

The story can be found here for the record: [link]

As for search terms I got some decent results using "Rikki-Tikki-Tavi Kipling." But I imagine that simply typing "Rikki Tikki Tavi" without the dashes would produce results. Most people don't put the dashes in as Kipling did, but I like too. I'm just weird like that.

This is amazing.
