Something about Bonama, my fantasy world
I realize now that I never truly disclosed any information about the world I like to imagine and the characters living in it. I will be correcting this mistake.
In my world, there is a magic island called Bonama where my characters live. It is some sort of ideal world where anything is possible with a little bit of will and imagination, but there are adventures and sad things happening too !
Max is the only character who used to be a human in what we call the real world. There is some backstory to it, but Max doesn't really remember his precedent life. Sometimes he remembers very little bits and it haunts him because it is usually painful memories. It may be because he's recovering from some sort of trauma, he has indeed break down episodes every now and then.
Max is very curious about the island and likes to invent things, like way back machines, invisibility potions and the likes. Basile Patapon, usually called Nanard (a sweet nickname friends have given him), is Max's most beloved friend. He is a cute fox, very naive and childish, a free spirit really, only wanting to have fun, and also very affectionate.

Nanard aka Basile Patapon
Other characters include (though it is always evolving) :
Scratch, a clumsy tiger friend only trying to help
Frimousse, a raccoon who acts meanie sometimes but cares a lot about his friends, even though it embarasses him to show it
Nours, the big bear dad friend
Oscar, a wolf, the most well-known 'baddie' of the island. Is a good person inside but is dealing with internal turmoil making him mean and spiteful
(the art is not mine here)
Pinpin, a gentle rabbit only wishing to be useful and well-liked
Loulou, a funny and tender wolf, only craving to be understood
And many more ! I just need more time to name them and draw them... My main priority is working on some female characters.
Max and Nanard are the main protagonists still ! One could even call them the two mascots of the show.
The stories I like to imagine include adventures on the island, exploration of interesting places and people, fighting against the evil (especially redeemable baddies, but sometimes irredeemable baddies or abstract entities causing tragic events on the island), Max inventing and testing things, and slice of life moments like Max having fun with his friends (especially with Nanard).
I hope this explanation caught your interest, and I wish someday I can develop this lovely universe through my drawings and stories.
Stay tuned !
