So I tried and failed, but here's an idea of someone to run with: Build a simple front facing mastodon head out of octagons... (I tried with various sized octagons for each of head, ears, trunk, eyes with subtle tonal differences for shading...got too messy though!...maybe I'll try again later in MODO instead of pixelmator...)
@orielle I'll give it a go. Like your ideas!
@Averly Awesome! Looking forward to seeing what you do...I'm a bit rubbish at this stuff, but here's a second attempt going in a different direction-ish!
@orielle So I tried a thing. It's definitely... something, ha!
Anyone care to expand on this?
@orielle woo! Now I need a break before I get sucked into the vortex!
On we go...
