I was going to enter (did spend quite a bit of time on the models too) but then too much stuff came up.
Here is what I managed to get done.

Hello!
Submitted some concepts for all three characters, can develop them more if you like.
I see you have been having a hard time getting in touch with designers. If this is a Design Crowd glitch, please feel free to contact me at NeonFlesh@gmail.com.

Looking forward to some feedback,
Nathan

You're aware that the bird is a parrot and not a toucan, correct? Regardless, are you accepting 2d designs?

Any progress here? It's been a while. Put a lot of work into this. Please e.mail me or comment if you'd like to see further revisions.

Hi CH,
I uploaded the revised illustrations as requested on 21 Jan but it seems you havn't seen them and as I got your message today that you havn't received any response. I too have been waiting a response from you since then...might be you also sent messages which I didn't receive. Anyways, I have again uploaded the revised illustrations today. Pls check the latest revisions I posted.
Designcrowd people pls help in this error of missing messages !!!
