BONUS! Opera Conductor
Added 2022-01-28 09:01:01 +0000 UTCThis was accidentally an interesting little experiment for me.
When I started this drawing, I assumed this was the only shot of the opera conductor:
I drew the above image based solely on this still, trying to picture what this character would look like from the front based on my amateur knowledge of Simpsons character design.
Later, in other research, I found he actually DOES appear in the episode from a different angle, briefly:
As you can see: I was a little off. The hair is different, his nose has more of a shape from the front, and I got the colours wrong (I think I can be forgiven on this one.)
What does this all prove? Not much, I suppose. That we can't make assumptions about how characters can look based on such little information, although I am going to have to fill in the gaps a lot on single appearance characters going forward.
If this character ever gets a speaking role in the future I'll draw him "correctly" (SPOILER: he probably doesn't.)
