Had the fantastic experience of witnessing the original pilot trailer for Help! I’m a Fish (the US version has NO special features >8’c) and just HAD to draw these two.
Might draw more for the sake of style exercise and FUN. Plus I know I don’t quite have pilot Fly’s (Swifty) style down just yet, let alone final Fly’s style. 8( I’M WORKIN’ ON IT…
It really is! I love pre-production of my favorite films, and this movie is no exception!
I also prefer the final hat design. It's just so dang cute. <3 Though I do prefer the hair on the pilot version of him.
Here, take a gander and see what you think!

Final:
Yeah, the original seems to be more 'tufty' whereas the revision is more like a fin-like extension. I do like the tufty look more. I'd not heard of the film before but there's a lot of cinema I've not been introduced to. :)
Yes, exactly! C: I think the tufty-ness is really cute and more fun to draw!
You haven't? Well, allow me to introduce you to it! :D

Seeing the design on a toon evolve in its emphases is fascinating. I think the hat's brim on the right was the most solid design move. The character also seems slightly more golden-age in its feel there.
