Here's a Bonus 'Rough Draft' of a SNOW WHITE float design, along with the Finished Product:
The first drawing is to establish composition and placement; Note that on the finished product the addition of the 'Castle' backdrop and the box which supposedly houses Snow White's heart. On the lower portion(skirt), The Magic Mirror is more defined, and another apple added for contrasting dramatic effect.
