I was playing with the kids the other night and they took all the good shapes. I was stuck with the hexagon. I decided to make the most Buzz-like thing I could from scratch using that shape. This is what I came up with.
This Buzz says, “Perler beads are hard to do with fat fingers. So be impressed!”
Have you ever heard of the CubeDude lego figures by Angus MacLane? They’re very original and very cool. He did a Buzz Lightyear and I duplicated it just by looking at photos. The only difference between his and mine is the 2×2 tile on Buzz’s head is a brick rather than a flat tile. I looked high and low all over the internet to find a purple 2×2 tile without finding anything. I even tried contacting Angus himself to find out where he got his. If anyone knows where to find one, let me know!
This Buzz says, “And you thought my head was big before…”
I drew this Buzz last night during a really good church service. I can draw and listen at the same time. It actually helps me listen better when I’m sketching.
Unlike my first iPad Buzz, I didn’t have a stylus on this one. Just used my finger. Took about 45 mins from start to finish. Used three layers: background, color and outlines.
This Buzz says, “I thought you were done making these?”
I wish I could draw stuff like this on purpose instead of randomly.
This Buzz says, “Heerrrrrrrr.”
Saw this one in my head yesterday and drew it out.
This Buzz says, “I say.”
I wanted to try some freehand lettering of Buzz’s name… it turned into this over a couple of days.
This Buzz says, “I belong on a Trapper Keeper!”
La la la la la la. La la la la laaaaaa.
This Buzz says, “La la la la la la. La la la la laaaaaa.”
Got a wild hair and a few moments to bust out a new Buzz Lightyear… as a Zombie. I’ve done a Zombie Buzz before… but I didn’t like it as much as I thought I would. I like this one.
This Buzz says, “Nom nom nom.”
Back in April I did Minecraft Buzz Beta. Today while I was home sick I redid him a bit. Outlined him in black and made his face look a little tougher. Enjoy!
This Buzz says, “Bout time!”
I’ve been doing daily Buzz Lightyears for the past two hundred and twenty-five days… and though I still have plenty of projects planned… my schedule no longer allows for a daily update schedule.

Thanks to all of you who have supposed this creative experiment. Look for the “Cup Buzz” and a “Clock Buzz” project to surface as well as a “Mighty Mugg Buzz” and quite possibly a “Tattoo Buzz” in the near future.
