Mighty Boosh: Crack Fox, design and make-shift characters



Since our robot-character works at a junk yard I felt Crack Fox was relevant. The vibe of this environment is that of a cave or fox hole, for ours we are looking more into a 'home' environment. However I feel it would still appear a little tatty and messy. What I find interesting about the Mighty Boosh is the make-shift feel to their work, the character's and environments have a costume/theatre like look to them. This is something we are considering in the way of the robot-characters head, due to not being a full-body robot there is already an element of costume.


The 'theatre'/unnatural look to their work is probably a little bit too fantastical for the theme we are working with, however I think that our environment shouldn't be a straight 'realistic' style, and have at least illustrative elements to it, whether that be in the use of colour or in a slightly 'make-shift' style, as the character himself is meant to be making some of the props.
