Amish Robot: Character Design

The Amish Robot

This happy guy was only meant to be a normal worker robot. But after hearing about the Amish life from his creator, a former Amish himself, the robot decided to quit his job and become Amish! However, the Amish community he's trying to join has a zero tolerance policy against technology.

But that doesn't stop him from trying

Heres the original character design for the Amish Robot. Did this for an assignment last year. This was also very early in my photoshop knowledge.

The Amish Robot. It's a short, 5 page one-shot featuring my favorite little optimistic steam-bot as he tries to prove himself to a local Amish Community. No offense to the Amish is meant here.


It was created for ACAD's comic book club. I, along with several other students, came together to create an anthology of comics, which we sold at the Calgary Comic and Entertainment Expo of 2010. Now, the club is no longer together, but we will be selling the book again at this years convention!
The book is titled Acadian Comics and consists of about 13 short comics (about 3-5 pages each) and is selling for $10 a book and there will be some other art to buy as well. See you there!


Fun fact: The Amish Robot's "master" (name not revealed yet) use to be Amish. But during rumspringa (which is when young Amish members leave the community to get visit the outside world and then decide whether they want to stay or not), he decided to leave permanently and become a mechanic. And yes, some Amish communities do accept outsiders. Not all but some. I did quite a bit of research before i wrote this.
