      My Albert design for this month's contest, I'm really happy with this πŸ™‚ My goal for this contest was to stick to the brief as closely as possible. 'Playful' and 'cute' were the two words that I tried to communicate the most, as well as the 'kindergarten' age as stated in the brief. I think the 'kind' aspect is missing in my design, but I tried to suggest some of the 'mischievousness' through my colour choices.

      I had loads of fun with this design, I love drawing badgers, it's probably my favourite design that I've done. Unfortunately I've been pretty busy this month so I wasn't able to spend as long on this as I would have liked, but I'm really happy and looking forward to the next one.

      Let me know what you think πŸ™‚

              It's true...

              Albert is a groundhog. But unlike other groundhogs his age:

              He isn't afraid to fly.

              In fact...

              ... he actually dreams of becoming a pilot when he grows up...

              ... much to the laughter and scorn of his family and friends, unfortunately.

              But he truly believes... that one day he will be... the first groundhog to ever fly in the sky.

              And so his adventure begins...

                @charlottesart Thank you! Haha I see that we had a similar take, with the b&w and red color scheme. I love that your Albert's pants ripped when he sprayed that poor dogg-o! πŸ˜†

                      Here is Albert the Chibra (Chia Pet + Zebra)! He's furry, fun, and gets into trouble from time to time.

                          Meet Albert the Muskrat! He loves his new life in the human family but his muskrat instincts make hard for him to resist playing with water. That shouldn't be a problem, as all toddlers love water, right? This challenge has been a fun thing to do πŸ™‚

                            Just a question, after hitting the "submit" button on the Critique arena page, on the page I was directed to all seemed to be ok except an item on the page with an error message on it (like there was an image there that didn't download). Did anyone else get this? Unfortunately instead of making a screenshot I refreshed the page which got me back on the page before.... didn't want to try again and submit twice but hope the one try went ok...

                                    Here is my little anarchist boar. The first animal came to my mind when I saw the word "mischievous" was a boar :-). Thank you for everyone who provided critique and feedback along the way, always more fun to do these when there is a conversation going.

                                        @Sabrina-Gosselin yes, similar idea but so interesting how they look so different, too. So many different possibilities with this one πŸ™‚

                                            Loving everyone's Alberts! Here is Albert who is (loosely) based on a Marbled Polecat. He has a bandana of many uses. Thanks for all of the progress feedback, it's really appreciated.
