        @chris-perry This is very cool. You've created a nice mood with the bottom illustration. Are you looking for critique? I have some thoughts about the way you've placed the elephant's trunk in relation to the head.

            I'm finding some inconsistencies in the form and function of the trunk as it attaches to the head, especially in your rendered, colored pieces. It looks more consistent in your exploration sketches, but some of the line work and volume in the rendered art looks like the elephant has a different shaped head, and the trunk might lift in different places. For example this is how I would imagine the shape of the head, and the motion of the trunk from this version:

            0_1500084184421_elephant1.jpg

            This is how I envision the shape of the head from this version:

            0_1500084788268_elephant-2.jpg

            I think you need to decide how you want the head/trunk shape to be and do a front, 3/4, and side view to really nail down how to keep it consistent.

            You've got a really cute character overall, and it's a good concept. Cinderelephant! Love it.
