Work in progress

Here are some of my concept sketches for the two characters I am currently working on. Currently they do not have names. I wanted the two to be contrasting so I was thinking land and air. After some thought I settled on the girl and her creature, not flying but gliding and the boy a more terrestrial farmer type. 

 For the girl I imagined her as cave dwelling, so for her and her creature I was looking at lemurs, flying lemurs, and bat like things.

For the boy I was having a hard time deciding what I wanted, so I played around with some different ideas, but I ended up going with something strong and similar to a draft animals, such as horses, cattle and takins (look them up)
