Minion Bday card

Hi everybody!

Was thinking of something more or less original for my girlfriend’s upcoming bday and recalled that she absolutely loves the little minion dudes from Despicable Me. So I though I’d make a bday card with that sort of minion :smiley:

It’s gonna have some stuff written on the right as well, but thats for her eyes only hehe…

Took me around 3-4 hours in total to complete. Rendered with blender internal 2.49b

…the only thing that I’m not a 100% about is the wooden board… but then having it a solid color didn’t look great either :S

Looks great! almost looks like the ones in the movie. only thing is the lips look a little too thin and protrude too much. Also the arm holding the sign looks a bit flattened. As for the wooden board I would put a more cartoonish texture because right now it looks like a real wooden floor. If you go to google images and search for cartoon wood you can see some examples. You could also (if it was a solid, thicker sign) make 3 separate planks and put them one on top of the other and leave a little bit of room so that light goes through. Also rotate and move the planks a little so they aren’t all the same. Other than that great job.
