(MCQUARRIE) ROBOT: Ralph McQuarrie (of Star Wars fame) worked
briefly on the Masters Of The Universe 1987 MOTU Movie as a character/concept designer. One of
the characters he wanted to develop was a little robot for the Heroic
Warriors. Gary Goddard (the director) did not like the idea as there was enough
cute little robots in film and dismissed the
character to be included in the movie. As a
BIG Ralph MacQuarrie fan, I
found this little guy interesting and saw fit to include him as a
tribute to a man who has greatly inspired my art. In this fiction he is
Man-At-Arms workshop helper. I spent some time on him as I feel I owe Ralph
McQuarrie so much to my imagination, and loved that he had a very small
part in MOTU's history, this character seems the type where he
can't wait to prove that he is more valuable then as just being an assistant
to
Man-At -Arms, he is cutting edge technology in this barbaric world! A
world that many would find him more fit as a aristocrats play toy to
impress their friends rather than a Heroic Warrior! I kept making the
joke to my brother's that he was the best character in the story and
it's all down hill from here (character-wise). lol All kidding aside, he was very fun to draw and reminded me (& my brother Brian) of the
"Robo Force" line from the 80's. Just something different for the MOTU
world, yet still fits right in!
WORRUCK: Another character developed for the MOTU 1987 Movie (not by McQuarrie),
Worruck...who never got past the concept stage, but looking like a desert
warrior meets an Egyptian mummy, he was just too cool & I had to
include him in this series! He looks to be of an evil nature so
naturally I have him working with Skeletor (the evil power of that film)
as one of his alliances. Worruck rules the Wasteland with his nomads
and keeps Skeletor's enemies from crossing the hostile environment! He abides by
Skeletor's rules and does not fuss with anything
much outside of his realm, and not many would want to venture there
anyway. He figures it keeps him in a good position with the possible
future "Master Of The Universe" while doing the bare minimum to stay in
the demon king's graces. Just my fanboy thoughts on the character...lol
