Chowder (Cartoon Network + UNICEF)

I was approached by Chogrin last week about a show he's doing in conjunction with Cartoon Network and UNICEF to benefit the earthquake relief efforts in Ecuador (all proceeds going to them). I had days to put this together, I had never seen the show and I had only 3 colors to utilize (Ecuador flag colors).

Luckily, I was able to carve out some time and presented my first stab at the character. I was told I didn't have to stick to the character sheet which was freeing, so I took a second stab and that is the one you see here. I really dig the 2nd version, but I've attached the original version as well. My hope is that this piece sells and does some good for the people in Ecuador. Fortunately for me, this experience has made me a fan of the show. :)
