Character Designs

Neville, a pessimistic angry bear, and red, a hyper active fox, set out on an adventure to find moon pirates! 

Originally designed by Allyn Thomas, i did clean up and turn arounds. I enjoyed working with these characters, as they were different to my usual style.

Pirate Captain and the Generic Piarte : these were great fun to design. Allyn had a vague idea of what he wanted the Captain to look like (BEEFY!) and the generic pirate was just a shedded down version.

The idea behind the generic pirate is that we can re use him as much as possible to save on time. We can add things, remove things, make him fatter/thinner etc.

And finally, heres a small sketch which sums up how i feel about the animation.....

9 weeks left! better get a move on! :)
