This started off with the following cartoon below which was supposed to be a Golden Retriever greeting an alien....
...until my friend, who used to keep one of the breed, pointed out that it didn't look much like a retriever...
She sent me some links to some images, so I set about changing the dog while keeping the idea of the cartoon. Here is the new look retriever taking shape.
Having settled on a new style of retriever that I liked, I added a layer to the original cartoon while I worked on the finishing touches to the dog.
Here is the revised cartoon, hopefull a lot more Golden Retriever like!
Are you a dog lover? cartoon lover? I'd love to hear from you, drop me a mail!
