Poochie D

Poochie is a character on The Itchy & Scratchy Show. The network executives decided that the show needed an "update" to keep the interest of its audience, so they devised Poochie, a cartoon dog "with an attitude".

The name’s Poochie D,
And I rock the telly.
I’m half Joe Camel,
And a third Fonzarelli.
I’m the kung fu hippie,
From gangsta city.
I’m a rappin’ surfer,
You the fool I pity!
A glaring omission from the World of Springfield toy line was Poochie the Dog from the episode “The Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie Show”. I took as many screen caps as I could from the episode and made my plans to scale with the Itchy and Scratchy figures. I roughed out the figure with Sculpey on a wire armature.
I used Aves epoxy putty to add details.
The surf board was cut out of .09 sheet styrene.
The final painted figure. The glasses are .02 styrene, the base is MDF, the fanny pack is a small piece of MDF and the zipper tabs are tiny pieces of styrene.
The base was made to match the existing Itchy and Scratchy figures.
