    Watari : I love this! Very nice little fella isn't he! Maybe the cap would be better as a peaked cap, like closer fitting to the head, but still a great effort. I think the hair would maybe look better brown too. Excellent effort and my personal favourite so far. Will give client feedback when I get it

    Cheers!

    Ok, here's the feedback from my client :

    Kia-Ora : He doesn't like this one, said it's too much like one he used to use and maybe a little dated.

    Aries : He did like this but doesn't think it is right for him at this time.

    Shibligb : This is a little too simple for my client, although he did say it wasn't bad.

    Cameo : He (like myself) appreciates the great quality of the work but he said he doesn't want a pig as the mascot. Feel free to try others if you so wish ;)

    Woodwho : He doesn't want clip-art.

    Watari : This is by far his favourite so far; there would be a few changes if you were to win this contest. He would like you to add a pane of glass under one arm, tool box in the other hand and the whole thing facing the other direction. This is only for if you are selected, don't feel obliged to make any changes yet if you don't want to.

    All : Please have your character facing either forwards or facing to the right as he will be going on the left hand side of adverts etc.

    Thanks,
    Davey.

    Thank you, Dave. I did mean to put a ball cap on him, actually, and I totally forgot. I don't know why/how. I will repost it.

    More feedback from client :

    shibligd : Thanks for giving it another go; sadly it's still not of a professional-enough quality. It possibly would be, but we've had the entry from Watari now and that is just a higher standard and more to the client's taste.

    watari : We are very grateful that you decided to incorporate our suggestions into this revision. It is excellent. The client's one suggestion was that the hair be even darker brown (he has dark brown hair himself so..) but apart from that, it's pretty much what we were after.

    Any more submissions before tomorrow? We are very happy with the entries so far, thanks everyone!

    Hi guys,

    We will be choosing a winner within a few hours - i'm just waiting for the go-ahead to announce the winner.

    Feedback for these last ones :

    crowquill : We do like this design and it's great quality, but think it might be a bit too detailed and intricate which might be detrimental if the mascot is shrunk down some. You are in the running, though.

    aries : Thanks for the new version, he said he does like this in lots of way but just not for the purpose he is intending to use the icon. It does look really good though and i'm sure you wouldn't have trouble selling that in the future. Great design, just not for us.

    watari : Only I have seen this latest version so far. We really appreciate you changing stuff when it's mentioned (didn't expect that at all!) This is closer to the brown but maybe a little too reddish at the moment. If you win, i'll get you the HEX codes for the colours to use. Love this guy the more I look at him!

    Ok thanks everyone, i'll get an update and decision from my client and report back as soon as I can.

    Davey.
