In the book Baloo is this cranky old teacher, and not the free spirit we see in the Disney flick. So I made him look like the stern tutor he is. I like his lips.
Baloo looks like Liver Lips McGraw from the Country Bear Jamboree at Disneyland... only more blue. Excellent! These are both great, Jed. You're awesome.
Nice strong designs Jed. It really does give their characters a different feel from the movie. It'd be interesting to think of what voices to cast to fit the characters.
I LOVE THIS BALOO! Showing how incredibly old I am-(YET anonymous!HeeHee!)-I read the Rudyard Kipling books as a kid BEFORE The Jungle Book came out-& was REALLY suprised how they changed Baloo from the books!!! I thought Bagheera should have been the fun,free spirit based on the BOOKS.Thinking design & animation, it was easier to dance Baloo around than the more correct panther.I love the classic & also Your design is GREAT! cee

How is Baloo supposed to eat Prickly Paws with lips like that? Great "two-fer" from the mighty Jedulous!

I like these a lot. Your drawings have a flourish to them. It’s neat that your Jungle Book experience extends beyond the movie.
Great stuff Jed! I like the lips too, they're so stickin' out! Funny!
I LOVE THIS BALOO!
