I'm creating a collage of 1950 era stuff to print on Disneyland trip t-shirts for my upcoming "Boomer Babes Invade Disneyland" trip. Disney as told me in writing that I cannot use MY OWN SKETCH of any part of their park or mouse ears.
Here's my plan to get around that. I'm drawing a 1950 era TV that will have the initials MMC on the screen - nothing else - and I'll have a backlit little girl either sitting on the floor in front of it and she'll have two little ponytails that just happen to curve like mouse ears. They certainly have no copyrights on the letters in the alphabet.
I need a model for my little girl. My initial drawings don't look right. I can't seem to capture the delicate stature of a child, nor do I remember offhand how the back of a ponytailed head looks.
Does anyone have a little girl, age 5 or younger, with straightish ponytailable hair they could photograph from behind for me? No need to do the backlighting. I just need her shape and the way her hair looks that way. If she's standing, please dress her in shorts or a skirt so I can get the shape of her legs for drawing a 1950's style outfit on her.
Here's a rough profile of a sitting child as I see her.
I'd like to stay with a preschool child because of the larger, rounder heads they've got (and thus, closer to Mickey's head shape)
