Here are some rough sketches I have done trying to figure out Pedro and Kipp for Napoleon Dynamite. This is always the toughest stage and the funnest.

Nice likeness!
I think you found Pedro's season Stephen =]

keep up the awesome work
As Napoleon would say: Sweeeeeet.
Can't wait to see where you take this for the final designs.
haha these are great :D
all of them are right on the money..nice job, my favorite is kip tooo funny!
Ha ha! Kip is great.
Fantastic likeness all around-love that lost,droopy Pedro look, Kip & also the Napoleon run-brilliant.
hahaha, these are great! I didn't read the caption yet and immediately knew who you were trying to portray!
Sir, how do you capture one specific person in so few lines? It's amazing!
Nice stuff!
Most excellent! Can't ever have enough Napoleon Dynamite! ;)
Your work is outstanding!
Oh man the far left Pedro is priceless!!

you are awesome...and your book is very interesting...
roby
Flippin' SWEEEEET! How cool would an animated DYNAMITE be? Great exploratory sketches.
bxobKelly,
Everyone of us has the exact same features, eyes, nose, ears ect.. It is all about varying these elements within the basic shape of a face, variation in sizes. the best way to simplify is look at things really quick and go with your first impression.
Clarke,
This is just a fun personal project. see you in San Diego
awesome steve. That kip is great.
hilarious
The expression and posture is SO Pedro! The one above Napoleon running is the finest!
I used to work with a guy called Patrick Mate who looks exactly like the drawing on the very right, at least that's the way I remember him. Great sketches as usual.
Wow, these are great!! Thanks for the inspiration Silver.
fun character sketches!! REAL cool!
Sweet.
I keep coming back to this post to take another look.
The head on the very left Pedro is right on but for some reason I like the body of the one closest to Kip.
I think the pose feels more like him.
That Kip is great and so's the Napoleon in run mode.
I can see him running down that long dirt road now.
It'd be really great to see a clean version some time in the future.
Hahaha!
I just took a closer look at the the running Napoleon's face.
That's priceless!
OMG! That's looks just like them! Have a good time at Comic-Con. I'll visit next year.
wow. So perfect. love these sketches. really captures the characters from the movie.
you really captured them, great work stephen!
