Give fur to real life animal that don’t have fur and make it fluffy. E.g Fluffy Crocodile/ shark.

gawrone edit: 
I'm adding a little challenging twist to this amazing Tipleloop's idea -  you have to use the Armageddon palette by MirruTatep https://lospec.com/palette-list/armageddon-8x.png. If you want to stand out in this challenge you will have to do it by other means than colour, like unique animal choice or creative texturing].

Canvas Size – Max 200x200px.
Colours – Max 6 (palette + transparency).
Transparency - Required.
Animation - Forbidden.

If money is your hope for independence you will never have it. The only real security that a man will have in this world is a reserve of knowledge, experience, and ability.
