Today I concentrated on creating the handyman character (HMC). While drawing several versions of the HMC, I realized that the face has to be able to form different expressions, and still be recognizable as the HMC, and I thought of Spongebob Squarepants (SBSP), and all the extreme transformations he is able to go through, and yet still be recognizable as SBSP. Of course he is a yellow sponge with a red tie, brown pants, and two buck teeth, so by keeping those attributes, the artist keeps the identification. My characters, while not sponges, will none-the-less have to always keep certain basic qualities, too.
No final version of the HMC emerged today, but I started, and that's ... well, that's a start.
