Mr Potato Head

12 November 2006 by kristarella

Yesterday I started making a new picture/wallpaper/desktop. I was originally going to do another “Design is…” one with the phrase “Design is just mess with style.” I was going to do one of these flourishing type designs, or try to anyway. I was going to have Buzz Lightyear feet sticking out with curls and things coming out all over the place because naturally I was reminded of “That’s not flying, it’s just falling with style!”. However it didn’t turn out that way, at all. Instead I ended up with a really deep puddle and some random toys.

I’m not sure if it’s finished yet. It might be. You can download the 1600×1200 version if you’d like to use it.

While I was doing this I thought a Mr Potato Head flying with some parts falling off would be really cute. I tried to find a ready made vector graphic of him to make life easier, I’d already spent ages on Buzz’s feet, I didn’t feel like making the potato and his little parts from scratch. I didn’t find an svg of Mr Potato Head but I did find this! Mr truffle does Mr Potato Head “Mash Ups”. They’re totally cool, he also has a Flickr set of them. They made my day :nerd: He’s also from Sydney, which is kind of cool.

I did a bunch of judging and officiating, which was really good.
I didn’t place in my individual events, but had a very fun final round of kumite (sparring).
