Hee.
Do you have any idea how difficult it is to make a turtle look even SLIGHTLY femanine? LoL. I actually like how the squirrel turned out the best, with the giraffe as a second... The Turtle and Bear were the first two I did, so they were kinda the experimental ones.
How did I do it, newbie? Oh, boy. Quick technical explanation.
I have a drawing pen for the computer, so I can sketch directly onto it without using a mouse. I used a light grey color to do a "pencil" sketch, then I filled in the color. I shaded next, using the airbrush multiply tool, then I did highlights with the screen tool. Next, I added the detail work, and lastly, I outlined.
Sunglasses were done with a multiply tool set on low opacity. Of course, I gave the bear the cool army fatigue shirt.
GO AROTC!! That's it, in a nutshell. Took one day for each of the figures. I also just realized I forgot the middle part on the Giraffe's tail! Oh, no!
