Getting characters ready for cel action

After a tutorial with our new lecturer Nick Harrop he helped us work out how to animate our pre-production shots for "NQL." As colouring our characters is such a lengthy process due to the art style he suggested using cel action. I later asked him how I would cut up this character and he ent through how to cute from the closest to the furthest away. He also noted that we should take the stripes away as they would be a pain to animate and just make it look miss matched in cel action. And how we would only really need the 3 1/4 poses instead of a turnaround,

Here is my first attempt at cutting out the character. Starting with my initial design.
