A year ago, I had the privilege of working on a project for the Australian company Dodo to illustrate a promotional “Colour In Book” featuring their dodo mascot. Here is the computer generated mascot they use in their ads and other materials:
And here are a few of my favorite pages from the Coloring Book (to use the American term):
Looking back on it, I probably added too much detail to these images–they were probably too hard for children to color. But I had a lot of fun with it. This is one of the few projects I’ve done that I didn’t get a printed copy of, so I don’t know how the final product looked (or even if my artwork was used). But I like to imagine that kids all over Australia have been coloring these dodos for the past year.
