This was a practice to try to streamline and revamp the design of a classic Hanna Barbera cartoon series; inspired by the 2 Stupid Dogs version of Secret Squirrel, which I loved growing up. I chose Crazy Claws from The Kwicky Koala Show mostly because it's one of the most obscure shows made in HB, plus I enjoy Groucho Marx films (which was the motif for Crazy's voice IIRC).
Going for a flat, graphic and continuous flow on their builds while adding sharp angles. I try not to make them too much unrecognizable while still slightly keeping their design flat and graphic. Also made Crazy Claws' namesake more prominent by having his actual hands literally sharp.
Rawhide Clyde always seemed like just a Yosemite Sam-expy (makes sense since the show's creator Tex Avery was a Golden Age WB alumni), so I replaced his giant beard with a more Fred Flintstone-esque stubble, which sort of makes him more original. I also gave Bristletooth a little stubby yet not too blobby type of body to contrast Crazy Claw's slick and fast design.
I think I did pretty good for the most part.
