Pyder character re-workings

More character designs for Symon Vegro's wonderful book 'Pyder and the Lost Rainbow' which I blogged about not long ago here.
After a meeting, we decided what needed to be changed about the characters and also which new ones needed to be added to the gang :)

Inspired by tweets

I've been feeling a bit poorly and uninspired today, so I asked some of my twitter friends to suggest some drawing ideas, I'll try and do more requests tomorrow, but so far this is what we came up with together:

Inspiration potential: dinosaurs! race cars! rockets! very small frogs! strawberry fields!

something from experience? Something about rum, & lots of it! :D x

Draw everything you can remember from the top of your head that is in your bedroom. Anything you can't remember, throw away.

Miners :)

You like cats, don't you? Would you like to draw mine? :)
(suggestion by @davesusetty, who then went on to tell me that Pesto Pickles (the cat) likes to eat spiders).
