HELLO

Hello and thanks for clicking the random links I send you ha ha.

So, this blog is kind of a crazy idea that Erin and I had to practice some character designing over the summer. I like the idea of posting to a blog because we can get critiques and also we can easily share this! But anyway, I'll explain.

We were trying to think of what type of character design challenge we could do, and we came to the conclusion that it might be really cool to do re-designs (kind of like Project Rooftop). But instead of superheroes, we thought it would be neat to actually re-design/revisit Dr. Seuss characters. His characters are unique and already have great stories to them, and I thought it would be really cool to see how everyone would do the characters in their own way.

Please note I'm not saying we're re-designing them because his designs are bad, because that's ridiculous. They're excellent and he's amazing; we're just doing this for fun. I've talked about this once before and people were a little confused as to why we would re-design something that already works so well...the answer: Because why not? LET'S DO THIS.

SO IT WORKS LIKE THIS: Add the blog. You don't need to do every challenge, it's totally fine. I know a lot of you are busy, so if you miss a 'deadline' that's fine ha ha. I don't care. Every week there will be a new character description uploaded to the blog, and you'll have to re-design the character. It's pretty simple. Post your design during the week the character is revealed (this is ideal), but if you can't do it in a week that's fine, just post it whenever you're done!

Got it? GOOD.
