With the 2026 Winter Olympics kicking off tonight, I got a little treat to share to celebrate.

Here's some fan art I did of the mascots of this year's Winter Olympics and Paralympics.  On the right is Tina, mascot of the 2026 Winter Olympics.  On the left is Milo, mascot of the 2026 Paralympics.  They are both stoats.  Tina's name is a reference to Cortina, one of the two places this year's Olympics are taking place, and Milo's name is a reference to Milano, the other place the Olympics are taking place.

In this picture, Tina is standing on one of the mountains in Cortina.  Milo is leaning back on Milan's Cathedral.

Milo was born with only one leg.  He learned how to use his tail as a leg to walk, run, and other things to get around.

The silhouette of Milan's Cathedral on the left is green while the silhouette of the mountain on the right Tina is standing on is red with the white negative space in between the two silhouettes makes it resemble Italy's flag where the Olympics are taking place this year.
