Donald Models
- I’ve spent a lot of time the past few Mondays posting models of Mickey Mouse. It’s only fair to move onto Donald Duck. Here are a lot of good models, mostly from the ’30s.
I follow this first group with some really clean models designed for publishing. I think you’ll see how heartfelt the first batch are compared to the second group done in the ’50s.
You can also see an earlier post I did of the Disney lecture on Donald and how to draw him.

Next week I’ll follow with a number of models from specific films, all of which are gems.
I have to thank the inestimable courtesy of Bill Peckmann for the loan of these sheets. I am deeply grateful.

How FAST Donald became “blandified” compared to Mickey, and even Goofy and Pluto. I personally prefer the Donald in the first model sheet posted here!! So elegant and appealing.

I prefer the 1930s models myself. He had a cuteness and charm that was unique. Donald had a lot of good cartoons made of him. What are your favorites Michael?

We all do; if we believe in it strongly enough and work hard to do our best. It’s easy for me to post model sheets and artifacts from the past. It’s hard to animate well and with real personality.
