Popper
Creepy dobBaby with one of those awful faces from children's books of the 1950s.
zdepski's illustration of Popper - creepy dogbaby close-up
I used to do dogBabies with realistic faces... it's pretty disturbing.

I used the Popper toy again in a future illustration for Mia as she Masterfully Mows.

Popper is Oil on canvas
Mia is digital in Cintiq

Great idea; I had totally forgotten about that toy, even though my kids had one (quite a few years ago)! The colors and little details are amazing. And I like the weirdness of the dogbaby!

I have that little toy in storage! Lol! I loved watching my 32 year old and 16 year old play with it when they were little! :) They had the same determination as that baby! Lol!

Nice one Paul! Love the popper! Those “ugly” faces from the 5os children’s books were one of the reasons I got into children’s book illustrating. Give the kids something a little better to look at as they read. You nailed the grotesque face perfectly! Nice one..... Oh and I love your character.... great angle and style!
