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…
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.
Keep the stasch and call the character “Der humorlose Toaster”.

I want to start a fanfic rumor that Ron is related to Ricky from Trailer Park Boys. Lol

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

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

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
Definitely #1. But you can’t ever make any reference to it looking like Big H in the game. Just make it so people say “… is that supposed to be Hitler?”

Thank you, yeah was going for more of a Ron Swanson, but now I totally see how people can see The Notorious H.I.T.

Get it to the corners of the lips and thick, you got a Tom Selleck, just around the edge, you have a Ron Swanson, 2cm past, you’re into Fu Manchu territory
I always heard that it was a common style for the working class, and Hitler was trying to ingratiate himself to them.

What is the personality of the toaster?
One looks like your friend’s dad when he comes home and finds everyone has not only left on all the lights in the house but have also left the fridge open
Other one looks like a guy in early 20s that is on a bus and some fucker is doom scrolling tiktok loud without headphones
I’d say they’re both great but you gotta decide what kind of cranky toaster you’re going with
threaded - newest
What’s the first supposed to be, Adolf Toastler?
Upvote for Hitler. OP, I don’t know if intended, but a certain German politician was the first thing coming to mind
😂
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.
It’s the perfect pic, thank you. I admit I was working from memory
Mix the two and use a trapezoidal shape for the mouth, perhaps?
Keep the stasch and call the character “Der humorlose Toaster”.

Just slap on a brown cutout mustache
Imo It would be hilarious and not confusing if you just used a cutout of the real ron Swanson mustache.
Idk how legal that would be or other solutions around said potential legality though.
Good friend of Kettle Hitler

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
I thought Jamie hyneman was a household name.
How old are you?

I think the second one. Assuming the middle bit is a nose, fewer details make for better deadpan toaster expression
Depending on what you’re going for, 1 and give them a German accent. Otherwise 2.
Wasn’t going for German that’s for sure, although…
I need more background. Does it make good toasts?
Yeah, it does. Like it has only one goal in life and that is to make toast.
Sounds boring. I’d say go with the top one.
youtu.be/LRq_SAuQDec
I scrolled through all the comments looking for a Red Dwarf reference. Thank you! :-)
2 for me. 1 took longer to parse.
2, but make him look more indifferent and less angry I think.
😑
Like this?
Yep
Totally agree, 2nd face but I think straighten the eyebrows so he doesn’t look mad
2 for sure one has a confusing mouth-stache
Der Humorless Toaster ist nicht hier fur dein scheisse!
NIEN!

For anyone curious, the game I’m working on is kind of inspired by The Stanley Parable, and you can check it out on Steam, maybe even wishlist (it would help a lot) : https://store.steampowered.com/app/2336120/Do_Not_Press_The_Button_To_Delete_The_Multiverse/
Option 3 googly eyes.
That’s actually how you defeat him.
2nd one is cuter and funnier
2
Definitely #1. But you can’t ever make any reference to it looking like Big H in the game. Just make it so people say “… is that supposed to be Hitler?”

HIT? Hitler Is Toaster?
What about a goatee?
Who let out 426?? I thought I was supposed to be in a windowless room!

ICYMI, the joke is about SCP-426
God
that isI’m one terrifyingly upbeat SCP while still being very anomalous.Edit: forgot to follow my theme (read my SCP entry to understand I guess)
Never heard of that site, but it was very interesting to learn about myself.
I choose option 3
<img alt="" src="https://midwest.social/pictrs/image/3c723710-4462-4bf9-9c5b-fe7d7ae353e8.jpeg">
I only see the mustache now
This is how I keep seeing option 1 where the longer line is a chin/fat roll 😅
I agree. This is the best.
Number 2. Unless you firmly believe there’s no such thing as bad publicity.
I can’t believe this isn’t a joke
Oh no, the Hitler particles have crossed the human toaster barrier.
One is them is angry, the other is furherious
#1 reminds me of Cartman (you could lean into that), #2 is more neutral and looks more angry
The second. The nose-mustache of the first is confusing.
I kinda like #1, but as the mustache being his mouth and the other kind being formed into crossed arms
1 has more character
2
Toaster 1 looks like Hitler. Don’t use toaster 1.
Counterpoint: toaster 1 looks like Hitler. Use toaster 1.
Needs: Eyes rolling and slight frown with face lines showing it’s permanent.
Definitely 1 💯
Is the Toaster related to Hitler somehow? If not then the latter.
Nah. Hitler would be an oven.
I mean still the vague connection gives the character some meat
No it’s too wide. That is a J Jonah Jameson mustache if ever I done seen one.
still too close. the toaster has a wide face so proportionally it feels like a hitler mustache
Make the upper one more mustache-y by making the stache longer than the lips and bend it downwards on the outside.
Ever seen Red Dwarf? There was a talking toaster in that.
Yay talkie
Yes! I had forgotten his name! Haha wow, I need to go watch that show again, it’s been a long time.
Get it to the corners of the lips and thick, you got a Tom Selleck, just around the edge, you have a Ron Swanson, 2cm past, you’re into Fu Manchu territory
#1 looks like JJ Jameson - You know, Peter Parker’s boss?
#1 only if you want a Hitler moustache. I prefer #2
Charlie Chaplin got done dirty. He was rocking that stache for decades earlier.
Some of Hitler’s bodyguards said that Hitler was a fan of Chaplin. There’s speculation (but not evidence) that he borrowed it because he liked Chaplin
I always heard that it was a common style for the working class, and Hitler was trying to ingratiate himself to them.

2
Number 1 but the upper line is the mouth and the lower line is the chin.
#2 because it allows you to later give them a mustache (#1), which is funny but the toaster isn’t amused.
Definitely option 3 listed below.
