More character designs and MORE DANCE



2nd character design:

Okay, I wasn't sure who to pair up with my showgirl. At first I thought, two! Two showgirls is the way forward. Then I thought that might seem like a cop-out because they'd basically have the same body. Also it's exciting but it's not AS exciting as I'd like.

I then thought a young girl would be a good idea as the showgirl would beckon her on stage and they would dance together, the young girl would be doing the same moves as the showgirl but much clumsier, sleeves over her hands, teddybear in her arms etc etc. So I start doodling cute freckled little ladies, and realise that the idea of two girls dancing STILL might not be as exciting as I want. 
After an intense google-image session I found an image of a young boy dressed in vintage clothes standing next to a dog. 

Immediately I realised this was my chance to introduce an unsuspecting character. 
Storyboards to come.

(T.Rex Live in Concert 1993; David Bowie, The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust; every Led Zep album; Pearl Jam, Ten; Funkadelic, Maggot Brain; Guns and Roses, Appetite for Destruction; Pink Floyd, The Dark Side of the Moon; Foos, Santana, Blur, Stone Roses jOY DIVISION STEVIE NICKS AC/D- okay the list is quite endless.  The (allegedly) cold, hard truth is that the album cover has to reflect the songs perfectly. So after a good week of listening to nothing but the wonderful Will Dunn's unfinished EP, I felt brave enough to begin coming up with ideas.  When in doubt - run to collage. That's my motto. So I did. Results...
