    What’s the first supposed to be, Adolf Toastler?

        The house looks more like Jamie Hyneman with his barret to me.

          If I have to look the guy up, he’s not well known enough to overtake the Hitler resemblance lol

      Oh, man… sorry it’s coming off like that. Since it’s called the Humorless Toaster, the main inspiration is Ron Swanson. At least that’s what I was going for…

        Ah. I think the moustache needs to be wider for that. Also, a label might be in order. Ron Toasterson or something.

          Agreed, wider and thicker with maybe a wavy/ ridge texture on the bottom half of the mustache and slight rounding/flaring on the sides that narrows to the top.

          Feels like that’s a good reference pic for OP.

          Edit:

          But I do prefer #2 more. Like others have said, it’s simpler and easier to tell the expression.

              Mix the two and use a trapezoidal shape for the mouth, perhaps?

        Yeah you got the mustache in that realm. I don’t think it was intentional, but Hitler really did ruin the shortened mustache look.

        Have you tried a design where it has a mustache for a mouth? As another lemming described, wider and wavy at the bottom. And then it can move up and down when it talks?

        Edit: quick and dirty mockup. This would be my vote

      Upvote for Hitler. OP, I don’t know if intended, but a certain German politician was the first thing coming to mind

      The mustache is much too wide. I don’t know why everyone sees Hitler.

        Hitler’s mustache was initially longer, however there was a decision to trim it. There are various theories as to why it was trimmed and shaped into the toothbrush as we recognise it for today.

          How popular do you have to be to have people make theories about why you trimmed your moustache
