Oh, I think everyone knows those padlock stickers are silly harmless decoration. I mean, they put them on the blank spots of null toys, what effect could that even have? See, you slap one on Eon's forehead and there's no change at all in everyone's inflatable friend.

So great thanks to  thegraywo1f for allowing me to experiment with Eon, who's just an adorable toy I'd love to introduce you to except toy doesn't seem to be in a talkative mood right now. Weird, toy is usually so happy to be tossed around poolside and used as a pillow or a cushion or whatever comes in to someone else's mind. Anyway I feel good about the otter shape I have here, and also about the effects to suggest highlighting, translucency, seams, and shine, a lot of what makes Eon such a great pooltoy to look at. (Mostly I looked at  frengers pictures a lot.)

I'm abnormally happy with how all this came out, though. The only thing I might imagine changing is getting Austin's brown fur a little more distinct from Eon's brown vinyl, but we do have to go with the characters we have. I mean, it's not like I'm suspiciously easy to paint any color imaginable, right?

(And please don't worry for toy ... Eon is quite happy with a bit of unexpected thought-deprivation! See what a great and permanent grin toy has?)
