December 7 - Bopup Flintstones


Flintstones — meet the Flintstones,
They’re a modern stone age family.
From the town of Bedrock,
They’re a page right out of history.
Let’s ride with the family down the street,
through the courtesy of Fred’s two feet.
When you’re with the Flintstones,
have a yabba dabba doo time,
a dabba doo time,
we’ll have a gay old time!

~ The Flintstones opening theme

So I was thinking about how Matt Falloon's Bopup concept could be a stocky egg-shaped humanoid as well when it occured to me to try making the Flintstone boys.

I think the shape works pretty well for these guys, adding balloon arms would have looked stocky and out of place.  There was a good bit of shading for these guys but it covered fairly quickly, I was going to draw in the arms but decided they weren't needed.

These remind me most of "Weebles".
