Dutcher is not only just a cartoon character, he's a man of heart, and the most grounded personality you'll ever see with one of my drawings.
These are some of his facial expressions I made over the course of a few weeks ago. They may look simple, but when you think about it, there's more important characteristics to him than just him lip-syncing.
I made this fella in December of 2021. There, he looked much different. I made him more dumber, he didn't have any clothes, and no range of personality yet, so as Ben Obvious, my 2nd favorite character I invented.
When it came to redesigning him, I already had an approach to exploring other various of media, like classic hollywood and how fresh and straightforward it really was, so it became my only type of entertainment for a bit.
I made Dutcher more of an optimistic neighbor to a roommate who knows what they're doing more than the actual guy we're rooting for.
This is me trying to make Dutcher rotate his head for the first time like a model sheet or those Preston Blair heads, I need to step up my gain because Dutcher's scenes have alot of angles to them.
Before I get into actual Dutcher and Ben Obvious territory, I created a few sketches of human designs that I researched through the internet.
It's inspired by those 80s cartoon shows everyone seems to hate, but I don't. Seriously, it's appealing to me, and it doesn't matter if they don't move cartoony, they look really well-drawn.
As every film progresses, they usually talk down what they like to do today and plan out for the possible.
Look at how different both of these characters are in this drawing. I'm trying to obtain the best of what I like in cartoons. I'm not an expert at making deep, and emotional sense characters, but that what I don't want in my cartoons. I think it's used way too much nowadays.
Sure, I'm not excepting every cartoon character to have an original and strong personality of course I wouldn't but for being the protagonist of your cartoon, you need to have some sorta impact somehow.
What I love about putting these two together into a life changing product is that you can freely know what can happen or what you can expect because just like us humans, the Artmania World is much like Earth but has more cartoon aspects that make you believe you want to actually go there.
Every cartoon character had an episode where it took place in the snow, so why not Dutcher and Ben Obvious take a time to observe and see what nature is most known for.
I had an idea where Dutcher can act just like Foghorn Leghorn in the film, Weasel While You Work, I love that cartoon.
Man, these guys are going to be loved immediately if I continue to talk them out too much.
Here's Dutcher looking pleased with Ben's fruitcake. Yes no kidding.
Their next attempt is for Dutch to cheer up Traggedy Hobbs.
Warm hearters care about people, cold hearters, don't care too much. Dutcher is in the middle of the road just like me, which is what I love about those type of people.
I have a different side of how people should act, so Dutcher and Traggedy both in person is something original and exciting.
You may not know who Traggedy is, but he's the type of guy who's barely active, rarely cares about whether his job can be a success, and has so much laid-back expressions.
This tells me that my style of humor is unique than everyone else's.
What I love about Donald Duck's personality in his early cartoons is that he has a trait that not alot of characters usual master for and that is short-temper. I certainly have cases where as something is really irritating to me, I break the case, but only for a few seconds.
Charlie Dog is another example of a character that doesn't deserve the hate, I mean come on, he had literally one of the best concepts for his character I ever seen. He's desired to find a master, not only that but his dialogue is priceless. People are rooting for Sylvester and Coyote more than this guy. He has less cartoons while the other two mentioned feel lack luster and overplayed making them more blander and worthless.
I'm willing to talk about more cartoon characters and other inspirations from the real world I would like to go over but you'll have to wait till a post like that comes out.
For now, Dutcher is our modern leader of command.
The concepts of mostly all the shorts these guys value for is talking about random crap they observed. Just like with every series, there is one similar setting that strictly has to stay in and that's always make it start in the late afternoon because that's when Dutcher leaves work and comes to the house.
Maybe in one episode, Dutcher would just go inaudible like when he makes this quirky face.
If your trying to make a comedy, the words shouldn't be the only thing that's funny. I know that's what most directors and filmmakers want us to do, but that's not the point.
My statement is that comedy isn't just words. There's specific ideas and novelty behind it that's has some comedic value to it like it's film title.
But most importantly, the facial expressions.
This is what I'm going to get with these drawings when they're going to end up being animated like the late 40s Looney Tunes cartoons that I personally love best.
These drawings I made are too good to be barely animated. I want to make them animated but when your getting to see that one animated frame, it's honestly distracting and entertaining in of itself.
Dutcher's Strengths
If you read through all of this so far, you know you love Dutcher so I'll continue to explain more about this lovable, handsome and eloquent being.
I love to draw to him smiling, when I drew this I immediately felt it under my bones. Him and his friend are still, but why? Because that's what's best in life, your mind should be valued.
Daydreaming in your thoughts has to be the best thing to ever exist in life, because if you don't have any time to draw or scroll on the internet while in class, you can still have unlimited ego inside yourself. Sometimes I'd like to talk inside instead of out loud.
What I love about Ren and Stimpy as characters is that each one is insane and the other is just goofy and foolish but they both can act chaotic.
Seriously some of the scenes and other characters in this show has have an influence on me. Besides those ugly, grotesque slow scenes you have to get through, this show is otherwise my 2nd favorite Nicktoon and feels rather challenged and gives you the chills everytime you watch it.
Just like with every timeless and active personality, they can be in whatever event they choose.
When I was watching alot of the classic cartoons, I always felt absorbed and felt more enjoyed with the ideas that never have been used in other cartoons. Seeing a character wear the same amount of clothes feels illogical to me.
I think cartoons were the best for it's variety of characters and different perspectives. It's like a new book you haven't read yet, it's like a genre.
Obviously animation isn't a genre but for it's use of concepts and character development I can't see why you should be afraid to let that type of fun go.
Bugs Bunny and Napoleon has to be the most unexpected trope I ever seen in my life.
I think that's enough Dutcher and Ben Obvious for one day.
Let's all know that honesty is a real thing.
