Description

A coloured sketch depicting how I actually like to portray these guys. Because why not.

PoM(c) DreamWorks


And now a little bit of a nerdy description, because it never hurts to have some (for those of you who are bored/curious enough to read it). B)

Note: Of course the following descriptions have nothing to do with the official data on the Penguins, but are entirely based on my personal views and assumptions. Please take it into consideration before pointing out pieces which do not match what you already know. This is purely a fan-made profile I made to satisfy my ranting needs. :)

From left to right:
The team's intelectualist scientist witch a terrible case of 'forever alone symptom' - Kowalski a.k.a. "The Option's Man".

He ended up being the tallest of them, and truth be told, I am pretty satisfied with it. Mainly because his height ended up emphasizing the level of his pride, and prideful this penguin can be. To match this, he had been made lean, yet not entirely a toothpick. After all, the more fat, the warmer you are, so lets not deprive the poor brainiac of some heat. (since apparently he is not going to be lucky enough to receive it from a female)
Barely noticeable, but his pelt is a bit ragged at places, and that may be the indication of his constant tinkering with dangerous stuff. His eyes are lighter and more energetic than Skipper's or Rico's and that is how I wanted to convey the spark of innovation lurking somewhere in the depths of his ingenius mind. And yes. He does look smug enough to be thinking about another gut-blowing device.
Somehow, he ended up looking like a duck though.

Next to the left: the commando boss with top-but-not-secret Denmark complex - Skippah Skipper.

The Boss and hard-bioled commando that he is, I still like to portray him in a 'proud parent' way, a fatherly figure who not only trains, but also looks after his teammates and provides them with his life-experience-stories in hopes to raise them well for the missions. Of course, the TOP classified files still need to be in top shape, as well as the muscles and morning dose of life-threatening adrenaline.
His pelt is smooth and a bit grayed out, assuming he IS the oldest one of the team and his eyes have a dull, dark blue colour of wisdom, experience and stoicism in the face of danger. He also has a bigger ribcage to match his strenght.
He's short. But Napoleon was not a tall man either. |)

Following to the right: the cute-ball of the team, MLP:FiM obsessed pon-- penguin - Private.

What more can be said? He's simply adorable, loves sweets, unicorns and all things kawaii. Nobody really minds his dark, soul-and-life devouring inner golf demon when he makes huge puppy eyes which radiate a magical rainbow halo of obsession around his form.
Because he's young, I wanted to keep his feathers a bit ruffly, but still kinda the smooth-adulthood-pelt on. His eyes are big, bright and basically the shade of a sunny sky radiating innocence, happiness and friendship. Commando birds or not, the team still needs a bit of magic to hold their bonds thight.

And finally the last one to the right, forever psycho, the muscle and walking artillery with a weakness for Barbie girls and oversized torches - Rico, a.k.a. "KABOOM".

I'm sorry, but I happen to like this guy the most. He's crazy, completely out of control, defying logic and all possible laws of the universe and of course blowing things up to express/create excitement. A volcano of energy, ideas and weapons of all kinds. Not as psychopath as real humans, but I still like to believe there is a hidden potential to his amazing brain.
Therefore, the ragged feathers, the crazy and eager look in his dark, red-tinted eyes, wild feathers on his head and the scar that just makes the entire picture complete. At least, not until a stick of dynamite appears in his beak.
