Couple of character designs for Venture West Bank (not real), they wanted a new mascot character to connect with the younger generation, something to communicate their tag-line: "Venture West...Making the World Safe for Ordinary Investors." It also had to feel friendly, like something that could really help out if need be.
First thought was birds for w/e reason. Went to an old sketchbook where I remembered sketching a kookaburra who supposedly in Australian lore is supposed to bring light to the people of the earth every morning.
