Frog Design

When I first heard about designing a Humanoid frog I was a little bit puzzled on where to start, I had a look at a couple of frog designs and I felt it I went for a rain forest frog then I could really pick up the real characteristics of what a frog looks like, this being the bright red eyes and green body, then I realised this couldn't be any old frog I needed to give it a theme and that is when I thought of the wild west and the film Rango where I could copy the parts of the design and really make it my own.

When I was first thinking out how the figure of my design would look I felt it would be easy to draw up a quick design of the different images I have found until I got a build I liked, it took me a couple of times to get the proportions correct on the face before I built down into the body and legs.
As I worked my way down to the legs I realised it would be quite hard to try and work out how to position my frog on the page as his legs were quite hard to put on the ground this is where I had the idea to have him sitting in bar the arms could lean back on the bar with a glass in his hands and his legs could just dangle from the seat. 



If I had more time on this image I would go back finish of it completely give it a nice looking backdrop and also work on the design of his arms and legs, I feel that I could improve the way he is holding the glass along with making the legs a little bit more realistic.
