Character Design

So we have to create a character and animate it.  It has to be a few minutes long and must incorporate the fundamental principals of animation i.e. pose to pose, anticipation, exaggeration, timing etc.

I want to create a character based on an ageing old drag artist.  I want him to have a bland look on his face as tho he has been doing this for years and has gotten himself into a routine, still performing for an audience but has an attitude problem. 

For inspiration I looked at the work of Tim Burtons "Corpse Bride" at the character Maudeline Everglot.  She has the face I'm looking for my drag man!
