Ardvark The Aardvark: The Teacher


The Teacher
Just a mini-update today to keep the Ardvark the Aardvark work going. I finished the first concept design for The Teacher today. He didn't come out exactly as I'd pictured him in my head, but after looking at the actual adult vervets for a while I decided to keep him a bit closer to their actual form rather than just super-sizing the babies.

It's amazing how different the young of this species look from the fully grown. I think it's the fact that the babies are virtually naked, allowing their skin to show through their peachfuzz. That, and the fact that their heads are pretty much fully formed at birth, making their bodies disproportionately small (and so cute!) when they're young.
