Kilpailun tehtävänanto

I am looking for an illustration design of a meerkat in 2D. I am looking for a full body standing character, but with a face that can be focused on. You might want to offer two separate consistent drawings.

The character will be the anchor of my digital business and will feature in educational animation shorts aimed at adults.

The character should be consistent with a beautiful design. I am happy for it to be stylised, but it should retain the essence of a meerkat.

This is a fintech business so the character should elicit trust. It should be:-

authentic but imaginative,
trustworthy,
innovative,
cheeky, quirky and fun, about the serious business of money
Nurturing, empathetic, caring
Gender/age agnostic

The essence of the business is "looking out for you" and the character should have that guardian angel feel about it. This is the behaviour demonstrated by a meerkat that is on look out duty for the mob of meerkats.

Työnantajan palaute

“Temperfidelis did a good job with the brief, and his talent is sufficiently versatile to respond to the nuances of the brief. He also very quickly processed a couple of minor tweaks.”

Hi everybody, thanks for the entries so far. It feels like the more cartoony style is appealing to me, but we need to bring in the idea that you'd listen to this character for advice about your money. So, that serious edge needs to come through. I think that glasses may add an air of intelligence, and possibly clothing the character may also assist. Thank you. David

  Hi afonsoasg13, sorry for the silence, I am new to this site. Your design does not convey enough emotion. The character has to engage with my customers, and they need to almost build a rapport of trust with him. Your character almost conveys aloofness. Thank you. David

Hi there! Would like to have any kind of clothes or leave it as it is ?

  Hi re8, the character needs to be able to build trust and engage with people about his money. I think that the eyes are very important for that, but adding clothe also might be an avenue. you do not need to feel constrained by realism. Thanks

  Yes, the idea is that the character should be represented in animation. That is why I have requested 2D, as it animates with less data burden. Thanks

  Hi there, I prefer cartoonish vector style. I am looking for the character to have personality, rather than be a photo representation.
