This is one of the first development sketches I did once Tut had been approved by Discovery Kids, they loved it when I dropped a limb which became an overplayed motif for the series. This is the image that sold the Producers on Cleo's look, however Luxor was still unsettled, his previous sandy version was newly replaced by this blue version in this third pass to try for approval.
At this time each character was in a state of flux, one negative comment and an entire character could be sent back to the drawing board. Each character we locked in was a small victory as the battle moved to the next main character. Meanwhile the production start date loomed ever closer.
