Regardless, I'm always open to suggestions (which are NOT the same as requests), so I took it under consideration.

Moreover, I already had a character from 'Fievel's American Tails' (FsATs) in mind to draw: Chula.
I was gonna draw Chula last year for Halloween but didn't feel like it ...so I'm saving Chula for this October, presuming I get to him at all. ^^

For those wondering, FsATs was an animated series based on 'Fievel Goes West': the sequel to Don Bluth's film, 'An American Tail'. There were other movies in the series, but I've not seen them and I've no interest to. ^^

Now, because FsATs was already a series on my draw list (and because the suggestion to represent it via ACO was yet fresh in my mind), I decided to pick another character to draw for the present.

I chose Yasha. ^^

This drawing of Yasha is 'unfinished', meaning I didn't delineate it (and I'm not going to).
What you're looking at are the actual-factual original pencil lines---they've not been gone over with a darker pencil.
I drew Yasha via a #4 'Zephyr' pencil by Wallace Pencil Co.
The text is noticeably darker, as it was written with a WWII-era 'Western' #2 pencil, by American Pencil Company ...cuz I got it like that hashtagpencilswag 8)

For some reason the title is in French, but the dubbing is in English. :P

Anyway...

...Pencil

The featured pencil is a ferrule-less 'Ticonderoga' 1390 from Dixon.

Most 'Ticonderoga' (or 'Tic' for short) models are numbered '1388' (and I believe are to this day), but some were numbered '1386' and '1390', respectively.
I know I've featured the 1386 at some point, and ...I may have featured a 1388 as well (I have a WWII version, albeit, if I've featured it, I'm unsure what with), so to complete the journey, I've chosen the 1390 (which is among the rarest models; this featured one is fairly early, but lacks the precious 'crucible' logo).
