Red Nose Day 2009

Around this time last year I was asked to come up with ideas for Comic Relief - specifically for this year's Red Nose Day. Part of my contributions to the cause included designing special noses. Not all the ideas made the final cut but seeing as it is officially Red Nose Day today, I think it's cool to show you those early concepts now:

Big Laugh
A nose on a nose, with a giant laugh shaped mouth cut into the red mold.

Funny Faces
A group of funny faced characters complete with embossed features and googly eyes!

Laughing Noses
A group of characters inspired by different types of laughter. Each fully molded nose is fitted with a unique sound chip - activated by touching the nose.
