Pompous, haughty, and a spewer of garbage, Emperor Porco Guano is not part of the Hushpuppies troop but the head of a rivaling gang. A master showman, he’s a spinner of stories and a fabricator of lies. Always in full combat regalia, his mastery of deception has made him victorious in many a fights, tricking his opponent into believing him a skillful fighter when in reality he doesn’t even know how to throw a punch.
About the process: I’d been tweaking and retweaking this character for quite some time now, and it wasn’t until this weekend, after watching Miyazaki’s “Lupin”, that everything somehow clicked into place. Creating a character can at times happen quite “easily” but other times they require extra iterations and even some external inspiration - and Miyazaki never fails to deliver 🙌🏼
