Days 108-114
Character Names – Tunka, Tri, Sqa, Cica, Ulgi, Krunkle, Pinkston Froth
I said I wasn’t doing storylines for these set of 100 characters. But boy, does my mind have a mind of its own. When I was doing this roundup, I couldn’t help my brain from concocting tall tales to place around these little dudes. Some of them have a story this week. I love making up stories and because I can’t do them in the real world, this is the best outlet.
Our son recently celebrated his 6th birthday and for his birthday he got a small fish tank for a present. He beamed proudly when he brought home his first two pets in a plastic bag. He christened his goldfishes Ruk and Roy. Both our sons have since been fascinated by the tank. It has replaced television in our home during certain pockets of time. They push two red chairs to the tallboy where the tank sits, climb up and stare at it for ages. The idea for Tunka came to me as I watched this daily exercise of theirs. How fun and totally wild would it be if Ruk and Roy became the tank’s eyes and it came to life!
Tri, Sqa and Cica are the Shape Ninjas. They have a lot of attitude because they secretly know how utterly useless they are.
Ulgi is well ugly. A hippo lazing in a pond, swallowed an unusual looking frog one day and ballooned itself into a glop that gets uglier each day.
Krunkle was born in a design studio when a bunch of cardboard letters left over from a typography shoot and glued onto some defunct floppy disks, short-circuited.
Pinkston Froth is not your average, creamy ice cream. His flavor is marshmallow and his creamy skin can take you on a wild ride. Wicked indeed!
Time Taken : 20 minutes – 35 minutes for each character on any given day
Softwares : Illustrator CS 4 & Photoshop CS 4
In 2010, I have challenged myself to create 365 vector characters, one for each day of the year. Please Subscribe To My Feed to follow the series or Bookmark My Flickr Page to stay updated on the newest characters everyday.
