To lead visitors around the museum to particularly important objects and exciting exhibits (see Hull and East Riding Star Objects page), I was asked to produce a series of characters who would act as guides. My brief was to develop a curator character and a dog (who was to be based on one that appears in an image on display in the museum). These characters would recur around the museum and so were required in a number of positions and scenarios.
Below are also a number of other characters who were commissioned to appear on the new information panels around the museum.
