Weatherbee

So today at work my boss asks me to make a masthead for one of our new papers we'll be publishing. The name the community picked is The Weatherbee so the first idea i had was to draw a bee and set him on top of the word. Then the hamsters in my head started to turn those creativity wheels and i thought why not REALLY play on the word and have him holding an umbrella! So Thats what i did. And below is the sketch and final version. I'll probably post of few more styles of bees as my coworkers claim this guy is a grasshopper...so i said "a grasshopper in a bee costume..." whatever... i'll draw a bumble bee and a really simple version too as these Seniors don't usually fancy cartoons. This guy rocks i don't care what anyone says. I'm most proud of the Umbrella. What say you?


....5/16/08 and so below is version 2.0 - he's more bee-like.
