    Awesome. I wish I could draw as good as that.

    The one with the big non-hairy tatooed arm kinda frightens me, but his other designs remind me of Sesame Street muppets.

    Think we could see some Frankie (or even Berry and Mr.Herrmian)sketches anytime soon?

    Very appealing drawings, you can kind of see that sort of Cookie Monster meets Luchador meets "Where the Wild things are" going on in Ed's design. Needless to say I love it.

    Bring on the Coco designs good sir!!!

    Impressive. Ha-ha, Ed had a tattoo in a few designs. :P

    Well, none of the Ed's look THAT different from the final version, but its still cool to see how they evolved

    You know... I always thought Ed looked like something from Ed Emberly's drawing books, due to his being made up of simple shapes yet looking kind of complex at the same time...

    Or maybe it's just cause I cut my art tooth on Ed Emberly...

    I always thought Edwardo was from the book. "Where the Wild Things Are" or at least influence was drawn from there...

    I love Eduardo to bits! I'm happy with the original design but I like the one running beside Bloo with the pillow and the bulky one is cool.

    john k says all cartoon network show characters have circle eyes.. and it seems to be true (except for maybe samurai jack)...

    my question: does the network ask for eyes to be circles or is that just how craig likes it?

    Duchess doesn't have circular eyes from what I've seen.

    We love Eduardo at our house. Really, we love everything about Foster's Home, but Eduardo is a favorite.

    Pantsless Ed? EEEP!
    The Mini-Ed at the top is just too adorable.

    All of them are pretty much the same concept, just different art styles.

    I love seeing the tremendous variety to the design styles of the same character.

    Thanks for posting!

    Folks, I adore your characters. Got a lot of funny personality!

    Thank you so much for opening this blog, and for these sketches of Eduardo, my personal favourite. I really love all of your work - originality, energy, personnality, and nonsense. It is just great. Long life to you!

    I'm sure I'm not the first to inquire but... do you think you could add an RSS feed for this blog? I think a lot of people would be happy to be sure to read all your posts!

    I love the show & am so happy you have this blog.

    I also love Eduardo: he's my very favorite character. The episode with him & all the puppies kills me.

    Great job with the show, people.

    Eduardo is my favorite, and I looooove him with the puppies--I almost had a heart-attack of cuteness.

    The thing I love about this character, is that his oper body doesnt seem so "flash" friendly, but the way you guys animate it, makes me thing twice about how flash design isnt as limited!

    Eduardo is so cuddly! His expressions in these early drawings are so cute especially the purply one in the middle.

    Hey sir,
    Really digging these development sketches of Eduardo. He's by far one of my favorite imaginary friends. The skull belt is a nice touch...very rock n roll!

    Been a big fan of the show ever since the premiere episode! When you watch it, your not aware that it's done in flash since the animation is so fluid. You have by far one of the most talented artists on board.

    I plugged your blog on my blog http://monster-shindig.blogspot.com

    Thanks for your time,

    Von Kreep

    Hi again...

    I'm sure you're noticing that I'm posting REALLY late in like, every update, but I guess I'm just slow or something :P

    Eduardo is my 2nd favorite character (after everyone's favorite Funny Bunny) so I totally love this! The one of Bloo and Ed is too cute!

    Hello--I thought Cartoon Network ran a segment on how to draw Eduardo and included what his pants are made of, but I missed it. I can't seem to find this information on the web, so I thought I would ask here. I am trying to make an Eduardo for Christmas and would like to use the right material for his pants.
