Overview - The scenario
The BBC, in association with the Recycle Now organisation, are looking to develop a cross platform series of games, videos and animated stories to promote and raise the profile of recycling amongst young people (it is up to you to identify an age range).
They are looking for ideas for characters to be used during the development of this project, the only specific requirement for your character is that it is not human but an anthropomorphised animal or object.
They would like to see a full digital documentation of your progress through a comprehensive blog alongside a series of concept drawings and visual representations of the characters you have developed.
These proposed characters should also have a rationale that explains their evidence.

Vector Tracing With A Pencil Tool

Vector
Object based, meaning that every line is precise and perfect. Sometimes to much.
Raster
Pixel based, meaning if the image was to be blown up then it would just be massive squares.







The Beginning...


             
I started to play around with a real life squirrel to see if i could make it into a cartoon character with some weird features.
We began with circulating the different sections so that we could separate the different parts of the body to make a whole new character.
Next we started to put our different sections together so that we could color them to make a cartoon character.
I had a lot of trouble separating the different parts of the body and found this very hard on illustrator.
