After another long think, I have decided to change my caveman idea quite drastically (well, appearance wise)!
Instead of creating a human caveman, I have decided to change it so that it is an animal. This was because I felt that kids relate to a character more when it is an animal, especially judging by how many animated films there are at the moment that uses animals for characters, which are adored by kids. Human characters on the other hand, I feel kids still appreciate, but not so much when you compare to an animal character.
So, for my character I have chosen to pick an animal that can be seen as 'gross' and most likely an animal which doesn't have the 'aww factor' when you first hear what it is. That animal, is a slug. I felt that a slug would be ideal as it is a slow moving animal, in which case I could make it quite dopey in relation to a caveman's knowledge too.
I will be putting some of the ideas from the earlier drawings of the cavemen I drew into the slug's look too! These will be posted up later.
