Made up Animals

Today I watched a video where kids described a made up animal to an illustrator. Then we were given the task of making our own, out of parts of real animals or one completely made up.
Then, we had to answer some questions. Here they are.

1. What were the steps the artist took before he got his finished product?

First, they talked a little about what it looked like, then he started to sketch the kids ideas. After, he went over it with a pen.

2. Did he go strait into using ink? Why or why not?

No, because you need an idea of what it's going to look like, and if you mess up, you don't have to restart.

3.What are you're favourite animals?

I like Koalas, Rabbits, Cats, Dogs, and Pandas.

4. What are some animals you don't like?

Snakes, Sharks.

5. If you could take features from animals and mix them, what would you choose?

I did a mix of a Koala, a Rabbit, and a Cat, some of my favourite animals mentioned earlier.

6. What would you call it?

I called mine a Kobbat, a mix of the three names of my animals.
