Toto is a dog

I haven’t progressed a great deal since I last wrote. One thing I’ve done though is re sketched the Stork.

I played around a little with the design, distorting proportions a little (but not as much as the Wizard of Oz examples Althea suggested – but thanks Al, I enjoyed looking at it.) etc. What I settled for was this:

It’s a “cleaner” look. I think I was mistaken when I said anthropomorphic. I didn’t intend anthropomorphic as dressing up the Stork in clothes. What I meant was that I want the Stork to display a paternal nature – but this will be more apparent through the animation – the way the Stork behaves. Even then, I’m not even keen on having the Stork use its wings as arm/hands.

Anyway, I hope to progress more this week . . .
