Every hero needs a family to come home to. Even if you’ve been simplified into a sphere.

Buzz 070 – Abstract Buzz
If I were you looking at this I’d be saying, “Looks like he’s running out of ideas already.” But I assure you that is not the case. I was inspired to do this abstract Buzz after seeing some Street Fighter Abstracts over at infinitecontinues.net. The idea behind the originals is that the characters were so regognizable that you’d know who they were even without any detail… just the colors. I wanted to see if I could do the same thing with Buzz Ligtheyar. So there you go. How did we do?

Buzz 069 – Attack of the 50 Foot Buzz
A giant 50-foot Buzz smashing his way through the city. Was he created by some random blast of radiation? Is he a robot created by Zurg? Is this all just a dream? I don’t know… but I think I hear the Power Puff Girls theme song.
This Buzz says, “Buzz SMASH!!!”
Buzz 068 – Buzz Crime Scene
Buzz has been killed! OMG!!!!!
This is (obviously) a Photoshop job… built with images, layers and filters.
This Buzz says, “…”
Buzz 067 – B-Boy Buzz
Going for an 80’s vibe with this one. It’s in honor of all my peeps back in KCMO! YOU KNOW!
This Buzz says, “This isn’t dancing… it’s moving, with style!”
Buzz 066 – Woot Buzz
I like making super-cute mini buzzes… so I made this.
This Buzz says, well, “Woot!” of course.
Buzz 065 – Broken Buzz
Somewhere on the interwebs I’ve seen artworks where blocks of color are used to create an image rather than outlines and fills. This is my attempt.
I originally drew him happy… but then reworked it because the pose reminded me of the moment just after he crash-landed.
This Buzz says, “I am just a toy.”
Buzz 064 – Old Buzz
Toys do age… but not the same way we do. If they did just maybe this is what Buzz would look like.
This Buzz says, “I’m not old… I’m Vintage!”
Buzz 063 – Buzz Lightyear Drawn Blind
I tried to draw Buzz with my eyes closed. I laughed out loud when I saw what I ended up with versus what it looked like in my head. I think it’s so messed up that I drifted down the page. I had my whole arm on the table to keep from doing just that!
This Buzz says, “Years of academy training, wasted!”
Buzz 062 – Type Drawn Buzz
I created this Buzz using the TypeDrawing app for the iPad. It allows you to draw with lines of text as your paint. You’ll notice that I used “Buzz Lightyear” over and over.
This Buzz says, “Buzz Lightyear… Buzz Lightyear… Buzz Lightyear… Buzz Lightyear…”.
