Description
This a terror in Cel City! These are called The Empties, Little eraser monsters that kill toons! Created by someone Unkown...Reason Toons should never travel out into the WhackLands. If you ever come across 1, Twist their eraser tops out to stun them and kill them. If there is more than 1, call the proper Officials and keep a MAD-weapon with you.Related content

Overall
Vision
Originality
Technique
Impact
I really like this idea. It's simple but that's the point, it catches people off guard.
For Vision I gave you four and a half stars because while there has been instances in cartoons where a toon would be minding it's business and then the animator starts harassing them with an a pencil and eraser, there are less examples of a personified eraser. Most people just go with a pencil character.
For Originality I gave you three stars because toons have been threatened with erasers in cartoons before. So while the execution is different it is a bit of a trope. Not that that's a bad thing.
I gave you a solid four for Technique because you did such a good job organizing this model sheet. You even go so far as to break down the simple shapes that make it up and the different eraser tops. It would have been nice to have a clean render of the character somewhere on the page though.
For Impact I gave you a five. It's a solid turnaround sheet and is very nice to look at. An animator or a 3d modeler could use this and have great results because of how clear and simple the design is. And again because of the great attention to detail.
Overall I think that this is a very solid turnaround that does everything right. And while the concept isn't entirely original, nothing is these days. Most of the conventions in story telling have been around for centuries, so there's no fault in that.
Good work!

Thank you! Yeah, I wanted callback the eraser thing like in Looney Tunes honestly. I always thought it was interesting but could be scary for them if we had a Roger Rabbit like world.
I really appreciate your feedback

In my world, away from Inkwell City there is an abandon area called the Whacklands. It's name origins from being inhabitable for Toons to live. It makes them feel sick and it's full of monster toons

Thatβs interesting. If I write a story can I use that? Iβll be sure to give you credit.
