The winner of the last contest was

Mascot Contest
The goal of this assignment is to design a mascot for the Character Art community!
Now the mascot of Character Art is a magical creature in that it has three 'forms'. These are "Sketchy", "Work in progress" and "Finished" (though if you can think of something better, go for it, just remember to explain it in your descriptions).
The only guidelines really are that they must be in such a manner that we can use them around the layout. If you wish us to not use your specific images, then please state so when you post, or on the image. The layout will be based around the character, and you will be credited around the community.
Contest ends 15th of December.
You are designing a character, so you must think of why you are designing it. Would it be for a game? A 2D animation? A 3D animation? Is it a happy cheerful character, or a sad mopey character? What is it's personality, it's history, it's past. You don't necessarily have to write a big essay, but it's good to know a little bit about your character.
Please create a new character, don't recycle old ones.
We would like to see work in progress, sketches and working drawings before you come to your final conclusion of your character. This is a fantastic opportunity to get critique and feedback on your design. Please post most of your working art on your final post as well (it can be links). Please make sure all large images are behind a cut.
