Description Finally! I have finally gotten around to finishing him!

If you remember my "Found Out About You" pic, you should recognize this dog. This is the dog with whom Ella cheated on Lightning. I originally just made him to be an extra for the sake of Ella cheating with someone else, but at the urging of Nippy, I turned him into an actual character. Rightfully so I guess, since he did play a role in Lightning and Ella's split.

Meet Bruno, an Austrian/German Pinscher mix. Now the reason for this is because there my voice pick for him is an actor I've been trying to fit somewhere in the Bolttens universe, and he just happens to be Austrian. Which actor am I talking about? If you've seen the movie Inglourious Basterds, you know exactly who I'm talking about: Christoph Waltz.

I'll get more into that when I do my VA Pick pic.

Bruno belongs to a rich Austrian businessman. After a business trip takes them to America for about a year, Bruno's owner decided to leave him with a farmer friend so he could concentrate on his work. Although he wasn't too keen on the idea of staying on a farm far less like home compared to his mansion back home, after seeing a beautiful dog named Ella, he decided she could......well, help him make farm life better. Unfortunately, there was one problem: Ella already belonged to someone else. However, Bruno had never been known to just give up something he wanted, and he would do what he could to get it.

Back in Austria, Bruno had been known to be quite a charmer with the ladies. Unfortunately, he was never able to stick with just one. As bad a trait as he had, he never failed to capture the eyes and hearts of many of the girl dogs in his neighborhood.

Hope ya guys like the back story! Especially you Nippy! And of course I hope you like the pic too!

I'm totally loving the variety of facial expressions you've been doing lately! They all seem to reflect the character perfectly, as well as convey emotion in the on looker. For example, like many people have already stated, here you can really tell his character from the snooty/player type grin spread on his face. X3

Bruno seems like a really interesting character! I love his back story, and how he has a history of "lady playing" behind him. I also love his design! It's so simple, yet super effective. I haven't heard Christoph Waltz, so I can't comment on the voice choice. Lemme see if I can find a clip of him on Youtube or something. I'm sure he's the perfect fit though, considering how talented you are at voice picking.

Great work, BG! Can't wait to see more of him!

Yay!!! I'm SO SO SO SO glad to hear you say something about the facial expressions. I've really wanted to try to capture that with everyone, cuz facial expressions play a huge part in showing their personality and who they are. And I figured that kind of personality would best fit with him. XD I certainly hope he is an interesting character, cuz he does play a part in the Bolttens universe. And I think the only thing you can see with him in the movie is The Green Hornet coming soon. He plays the villain there. Everything else is pretty much a foreign movie, or, like Inglourious Basterds where he's more well known, it's rated R. Definitely YT a clip of him when you get a chance. And as far as voice picking, I like to think that I get lucky with every voice I pick rather than talent. But thank you still.

Boy I had a lot to say there.

Thank you again, Penna! And hopefully you will soon!

Nice work! His facial expression especially gives him a very snooty look. I likes.

AH, awesomeness!!! I can't help but love this guy with all his flaws; he's just too great! I really like his mischievous/charming smile, it just fits his personality so well! And I thank you for going through the trouble of making him an official character! Thankyouthanyouthankyou x infinity! Makes me really happy, because now I can use him for creating the story behind Ella's and Lightning's break up (or more specifically the reasons why it happened, why Ella decided to cheat on Lightning... it shall be so interesting) any way, great job!!

And that's exactly what I wanted you to do. You should hate him, but you feel the exact opposite.

You're most welcome, mah dear Nippy Sammich. It was no trouble at all. And now that he's been created, I'm really looking forward to seeing how you'll create the breakup story! Speaking of Bruno, when do you think you might be posting your picture? Sorry if I sound somewhat impatient there. I guess I shouldn't really ask since you had to wait on me just to get MY pic out.

Thank you again Nippy!!! Love ya buddy!

Mike-B-Kittson In reply to talon62 [2010-09-26 22:50:42 +0000 UTC]

You kiddin'? By all means you can draw him!

And that's kinda what I was aiming for with this character when picking his VA. He's a scumbag, but he's a likable scumbag. Well, if you're not at the end of his scumbag-iness like Lightning was. You know you can't really like what he did, but he's so charming you just can't help but look past that. I guess with the character himself, he's kind of a spoiled yet charming jerk.

Thanks a million Talon! And again, you can draw this guy anytime you want.

Then I've achieved my goal with the smile then!

Thank you, Rika! Hopefully I will have more of him in the future. Nippy should be posting something relatively soon, from what she's told me. Thank you again!
