Description

Hi,

We want a 3d character designed looking like a pen.

We are not looking for a childish character. It is for an serious website where authors can sell their books online.

When the author has sold a book the character has to look very happy.
When the author hasn’t sold a book for a while the character should look disappointed.

The character has to be funny , pixar-like, cartoonish, but not to childish.

Some examples that we like:

The above samples are just examples. We want a pen and not a pencil. It has to have legs and arms.

In the beginning we only want a static picture but if we like your work it has to be animated. For example: Walking over the screen while looking on his watch, jumping around on the screen for happiness. Etc. etc.

We need the following expressions:
1. Looking very happy.
2. A ‘warm welcome to our site’ expression
3. Looking annoyed ore bored.
4. Waiting.
5. The character wrapped around our logo. http://www.pumbo.nl/

Please remember you have to be able to animate the character in the future. For example in Maya format. The colors of the character should fit with our website/logo colors.

We want to see some example of your work. If you can’t show an example please don’t bid.
