Cardboard Rhino

I’ve been working on this character for a couple of weeks. I still don’t have him quite right. My goal was to work on my own character. (Think Calvin, Charlie, Dennis, etc.) I was inspired by the way little kids look so wide. I wanted a signature shirt. (Where would Charlie Brown be without it?) and simple features. He made his first appearance last week. Hopefully he’ll get better over time, like Charlie, below.

Here are a couple prelims:

Themes: Boy in Command (sort of followed)
               Donald’s Birthday (followed)
I thought of each row like a weekly strip.

Listen to the mysterious birds, Dino! They will lead you to safety!

Sorry for this lacking contribution. I drew this on the bus today. At least I was able to participate.
