Dear contest holder,
I would like to discuss this project further. Can you explain this little more or else can you attach some reference images to get a better idea of your project would be great. We can have a chat if you can send me a message via designcrowd. Hope you will attend to this.
Looking forward to doing something better for you.
Thanks

Hello - I have attached some example images that will give you an idea of what I am looking for. I want two characters that I can use on T-shirts, mugs etc...

Thanks.I will attend to this.

Hello! I've submited a rough sketch of the two characters. If you like them the way they are, I can work on their lines and then the color. If you prefer to introduce some modifications now is the best moment to do so, that's why I always submit a sketch first.
Eg: We could add lifejackets or suspenders, or any other element at this stage. We could remove his beard or change her hair. Anything you like.
Thank you for the feedback! Cheers

Hey Vicky,
I do like the sketches, the beard is great as is the hat. Can you incorporate the Texas flag into his or her bathing suit.

Thanks for the work!

Hello! Great, thank you! Yes, of course I can include it. Will upload the final work soon.
Cheers!
