Description:
I was brought into this project just after initial concept to finalize the layout, sculpt the animal characters, and ensure proper build strength for this wild environment. I sculpted the detailed animals with a touch of playful realism: from the tree-swinging monkey to the cave-wandering elephant. Each animal has a unique texture and is posed in a stable, dynamic stance. I designed and art directed the detailed deco on the animals which required equally detailed communication with our vendors. In the end we accomplished the creation of this attractive and durable educational toy.
