We got an email back today from George(Active Planet Kids), and he gave us some feedback on our drafts for the bobble head characters. I got a lot of feedback on my illustration of Kartick Satyanarayan, which I have started changing. One of the main things george wants is it to include other illustration in order to give the bobble head some context and people can make connections to Kartick. I have been working on an illustration on of an elephant and fining a way to combine the two. I plan to try other different poses of the elephant than just a side view, because after looking at it I feel Like it would be too wide of an illustration. I definitely want to try and illustration with the elephant facing forward. I added tears in the elephants eye which is reference from Raju the elephant, who Kartick helped rescue after being chained up and abused for 50 years. Another changed I made based on Georges Feedback was the hair. I added some more curls towards the front of forehead. I also tried adding a logo of the wildlife SOS organization on his shirt, but it’s kind of challenge due to the size of the bobble head. This logo would only work if the bobble head would be blown up in size. One thing I need to work on is his arms, which need to look a little more animated.
