This is a portion of the illustration I'm currently painting...I've procrastinated for the past week on it...but I'm finally at it - It's about half way done now...I had wanted to finish this weekend, but it looks like it'll end up going into next week a little bit.
What's been the biggest struggle is adapting these real life animals into these square little critters. I have a group that I've been drawing for a while (the panda, pigs, and skunk) - so I have those under control - but it's the other animals that I'm working through...
I've done several revisions to this piece when it was just a line drawing - a piece of that was assigning an animal to each character that I had drawn...but through that I still had to go back into the illustrator file and revise the fox character several times before it looked enough like a fox (for my taste)...like adding the darker hands, feet and ears...which I previously hadn't thought about...
Anyway - as you can see, there are a lot of characters still to color (and this is only a portion of the piece....so I'll be here a while...
But it's coming along - and I'm enjoying the process..even though it is a little slow....

Thanks!.... I gotta say I love the way you can make the eyes look realistic but stay cartoony at the same time! very cool!
So far so good! I like what you are doing here!
