Tsutsumi is an animation artist and illustrator, he originally worked as art director of Pixar Animation Studios. I've chose him as an one of my animation references as his work is fairly different in comparison to the other two animators I am looking at. His current project 'the dam keeper' was nominated for the 2015 academy awards for best short film. His style of animation is a heavy influence within the shirt and seems as if it was animated by him alone. Above you can see 4 examples of his work, he has a very distinctive look. All his illustrations tend to have a grainy surface giving it a rough textured appearance.
Above are a series of picture used to inspire the final picture below. I originally was going to use the hedgehog as a template but whilst watching David Attenborough's 'life story' I came across the Jerboas who's shape was more interesting.
