Kitchen Blanket To The Rescue

I've finally started planning something for my 3D GIF, I was originally only thinking of making this out of clay or something which is much more within my comfort zone, but then I came across my flatmate Annas blanket (which permenantly resides in our kitchen so smells a bit funky) and was inspired. Its almost the exact colour Ricardo is, so I wanted to try and encorporate that into my GIF. 

This is my original sketch where I imagined what it would look like if someone draped the blanket over them and had the features of Ricardo on their face. I wanted my GIF to show him from the waist up, either being sick or catching a fly like I'd previously planned in my sketchbooks. Since making it obvious that he was catching a fly (not just a tiny dot) would be very difficult to convey using this method I decided to go for the sick option, then noticed my other flatmate Max's empty carton of hemp milk (what even?) on the floor. 

Now the plan is to have someone put the blanket on their head, I'll attach eyes, mouth etc to the blanket using masking tape, and then have them drink the milk, then drop the carton and sick it all back up again. Gross but then obviously that is the vibe I'm going for, I feel like this characters attitude and the design of him goes so well with being a lil bit gross/ naked.

Most importantly I NEED TO REMEMBER TO GO SLOWLY AND MAKE SURE I TAKE A LOT OF PHOTOS OF THE MOVEMENTS, as I feel thats where I've let myself down a bit in the stop motion GIF, not making enough frames.
