Re: Holi Day




Holi Festival is a carnival of colors, a celebration of triumph of good over evil.
One of the rituals of celebration involves splashing colorful pigments and paints on each other.



(I admit, I was pretty hesitant to submit this design, since there are plenty of beautiful hennah'ed elephants in the derby already...perhaps it's alright?)

He's supposed to be a chubby little monkey.
But I guess I didn't monkey-fy him enough!

Honey, this ROCKS. It's cute and simple. The expressions and colors will certainly get votes. I think maybe you also get a leg up for Indian fans of the Harmonious Friends, elephants or monks in general.

Clever, Cute, references the theme in more ways than one (animals, henna, holi paints), and retro as heck!

Very original style. The proportions of your characters are really cool too. +1 from me.

Awwwww man. I really wanted this one ;_;. So sad to see it pop out of the fog. I love the little monkey's face, and the unique style you've used. I hope it moves back up! Push push!
