I'm back at it again with another Fooglie Redesign!
This one is quite a bit different than the last, as the 'redesign' aspect is more obvious this time, most evident in the fact that Flower now has 4 legs instead of 2. Why? I wanted to further embrace the 'flower' aspect but having his body be a planter. Is he sitting in a four-legged planter, or is the plant pot his body? Who knows... Also, I gave him teeth resembling that of a Chinese Guardian Lion, because their expressions look very similar to his facial expression.
Also worth noting, the castle mentioned in the bio is referring to the castle within the universe of the show itself, and not Floop's real castle, which is surrounded by water, of course. I headcanon that in the show, the castle is on an island. :)
P.S. There's a hidden code. Can you find it? What is it for? You'll see...
People have probably pointed this out already but in the list of randomly assigned 'quick facts' that characters can have on the wackywatch nominees page is a spy kids 1 refrence to the Fooglies
Colourful monsters who used to be human before being transformed, kept locked up and made to perform in a kids show, who speak in sentences that only make sense in reverse
The 'quick fact' is essentially what the fooglies say only difference is theyve swapped out the name for Caines
Also something about fooglies brains turning to mush when theyre transformed and caines ability to alter minds idk you get the point
Interesting to note aswell but the name that was swapped out for Caines was Floop. Floop being the guy who ran the show and came up with the fooglies, a guy who just wanted to bring joy to kids, before he was taken down a dark path by someone else
Might be something but also might just be a funny lil reference, who knows??
basic boat ettiquette: don’t shit in the boat. those toilets can’t handle anything

is that george clooney
well that’s not how it works in spy kids 2. or 3. or 4. or the tv show
She do bring stretch :)
I had a fun time redesigning her. Obviously, I went in a much cuter direction than in the movie, but hyper realism isn't really my thing so I just went with it, I guess, lol.
I gave Too Too ballet shoes instead of jester shoes, to further embrace the dancer look and give her a unique visual identity. Other changes include giving her a curly lock of hair and making her sleep cap a lot longer and droopier because I thought it would be fun. Also gave her a stuffed toy to carry around. All of the Fooglies will have an item :).
Hello! I'm a 24-year-old artist. I created this blog because I really like the fooglies from Spy Kids. That's it. Really.
What is this?:
On this blog, I plan on expanding on the concept of the fictional show "Floop's Fooglies," as if it were a real children's show. This is an AU with some themes of trauma and horror. In my mind, Floop's Fooglies is the OG mascot horror, before that was even a distinct genre of media. I like the idea of mascot horror from the mascot's point of view, and Floop's Fooglies fully plays into that idea. All horror and trauma posts will be tagged accordingly.
I want to explore emotions and concepts through my work. Everything here is experimental. It won't all be canon-compliant. There will be art, writing, and hopefully animation. You don't need to be a fan of Spy Kids to enjoy this blog, hopefully.
Tag List:
#tag: the show (things intended to be in-universe content from Floop's Fooglies, such as merch, plot synopsis of episodes, etc. For example, the character bios are intended to be the official character biographies.)
#tag: lore (anything relevant or "canon" to the loose story this blog follows)
#tag: just for fun (exactly what it sounds like. Not relevant or 'canon' to the blog's story)
#tag: headcanons (any headcanons direct towards Spy Kids as a film itself. May or may not be relevant to the blog's story.)
#tag: headspace (For when characters are experiencing altered perception. Fictionalised events and interactions)
#tag: reality (What the characters are actually going through. Moments of clarity.)
There will also be specific tags for each character, not gonna list them all here, but they're easy to find.
DNI:
If you are a NSFW blog, or post kink or fetish content, do not interact. Why? My work contains themes of transformation and identity/intelligence loss. Please do not reblog my content on your blog if you fetishise these themes or ideas. My art is SFW.
(Please note: sfw transformation blogs are fine. You are welcome here.)
I love Tall & Skinny so much, he's my second favorite fooglie!
He was such a pain to redesign and draw, oh my goodness. His face was the struggle. Its such an odd shape and his handprint-shaped cheeks only made it harder. I decided to turn his jester hat into a full cowl into a full jester cowl, so that his head shape could be the same, while being easier to draw. His arms probably aren't long enough in this drawing, but I needed to make sure he'd fit on the canvas. Thank you to @spy-flair-extraordinaire for the floppy limbs suggestion. :)
Worth noting, I think its interesting that he's the only fooglie who isn't smiling in the movie. I wonder if there's a reason for that.
Uh... so I've had a rough time re-designing Tall & Skinny. Its been a struggle figuring out how to stylize him to fit with my skill level while still being recognizable. He's held up the entire project and is why there haven't been anymore art posts for a while. What do you think? Is he good enough? Suggestions?
