// Impossibear //

Here’s a bit of design process for perhaps my favorite character I’ve designed so far for Bravest Warriors, Impossibear. This goes way back to April 2012, during one of the first weeks I started working on the show. I got the script for “Gas Powered Stick”, laughed immediately at his name, and filled up a page of various ‘space bear’ doodles. I was totally riffing on Ewoks for the first bunch. Whenever I sit down to design, I typically draw up a page worth of characters (sometimes more) and send them over to Breehn Burns for his thoughts. In this case, he sent me back a combination of some of the elements he liked and splashed the rainbow coloring on. I laughed outloud when I saw it (always a good sign!).

The final set is where we landed. Makes me smile every time. And his voice is perfect (Michael-Leon Wooley).

Look for more of Impossibear in Season 2, which we’re working away on right now.
