Animation reference - "Scarecrow"

As promised, here's one of the videos that I thought might be quite nice as reference. Take a good look at the backgrounds - visually stunning and the lineless style contrasts really nicely with the main characters. Perhaps we could look at creating something similar (but slightly more simplified)?

The fact that the story's about a scarecrow is an added bonus. :P

Remember — we'd like to see you all blogging away into the sunset!

Character references - Scarecrow

Just some little images to help inspire you! There's a disappointing lack of decent images on Google - they're mostly all scary, evil-looking things which isn't quite what we're going for, eh?!

This one's really interesting. I know it's not really what we're going for, a bit too short and stocky, but it's a good example of ideal design! Very simple but interesting and recognisable. Brilliant eyebrows as well!

I thought this one was quite interesting - how about using straw for fingers?

(Sorry, this one just made me laugh!)

Hope that's helpful - see you all tomorrow!
