So, the Scarecrow needs to wear green, because that is the color of his clothes (he was made to resemble the Munchkins, who are always dressed in green). And his face is painted on, so the eyes would be pretty stationary (an creepy). If you ever see the old illustrations of him, I think they are a bit creepy too.
As for the lion, I was trying to make his eyes droopy/sad looking, so the animation is supposed to feel like the extra skin around his eyes is sagging and flopping. Any suggestions on how I might get that kind of effect? I can lessen the highlight color from pure white to something more around 80% white. Do you think that is going to fix the problem you see? I'm not sure I see the eyes as a problem, really.
The mane is turning out to be harder than I thought. I didn't want to make it too over-the-top since he is bounding/trotting and not running. Do you mean to add more tones to make it look smoother? Or add in some different browns to add variety to the differnt hair areas of his head?
Thanks for the feedback.
