This newest version of Mr. Fuzzy is inspired by two main sources. One being my love of the TV show, MYTHBUSTERS, so I wanted Mr. Fuzzy to really look like something put together with what Mistake had available… A robot where his look is secondary to function. The second influence was the OVER detailed robots of the recent TRANSFORMERS movie. I really enjoyed that movie, but thought that the designs were VERY confusing with all that detail. I wanted a LITTLE bit of that feeling of complexity, without the obnoxious “What am I looking at? Is that an elbow?” vibe of the movie.

I think this iteration of Mr. Fuzzy is a nice blend for the old and the new, and should prove a LOT easier to draw more regularly that the last version (I really like the movable eyebrows). I suppose, i’d call this Version 4.1 or something.
