I need an animal designed for 2 x VERY basic animated characters.

OK - this is NOT Pixar!
I need a lion illustration.
I am going to animate it using PowerPoint 2010 functionality saved as a Video file. I am using him to illustrate some simple functionality on something else. I will provide his voice, and my voice, and we will have a simple 1- 2 minute converstaion.

So.....
1> He needs to browns, yellows and oranges - to stand out against a green "jungle". I may need you to illustrate that too - very "children's story book" colourful and naive, (I am trying to do that myself, but likely fail in an epic way...)

2> He will mainly be looking towards me/"out of the screen". However, occasionally I need him to look "into" the screen.

3> I need to be able to move the limbs (front paws only) behind the body, and round to the side to point at things and hold things.

4> I need a few expressions, (happy/sad/angry/confused/cry?), so I guess the face needs just to be a separate element in some way.

5> I would like to be able to have the mouth/jaw move up and down, so I can (VERY ROUGHLY) have him "speak".

6> Maximum size would be around half way up a standard PowerPoint 2010 screen...

7> I need a dead zebra too (!), ("X"s for eyes, lolling tongue etc...) It can be on it's side or back and is static.

This is a bit of an experiment, but if successful I will need more small jobs like this over time. It's designed to be a monthly series (in my brain anyway...).

Go wild!
Thanks
