Gid gettin’ down to the Tik-Tok dance.

And hello again, one and all.  In a (belated) tribute to National Pie Day, this week’s Art of the Day collection features Zootopia’s other fox; bully-turned-nice-guy, Gideon Grey.

Like just about everyone else, I’ve often wondered what it was that led Gideon to turn over a new leaf. (There’ve been several pieces of fanfiction written on the subject.)

Hopefully, we’ll get some answers in Zootopia 2.  But in the meantime, enjoy…and don’t forget to show the original artists some love by clicking on the source links.

We open with some images of Gideon during his ‘Mean Widdle Kid’ phase.

He looks so angry in this one, it’s even a little bit scary.

The famous confrontation with Judy.

“Well…he was right about one thing; I don’t know when to quit.”

But eventually, (thank goodness,) Gideon grew out of his bullying…as the next series of pics demonstrates.

Note the blueberry stains on his apron, a nice touch.

Nothing like a little whipped-cream on top.  I like the way his fang is showing in this pic.

Don’t ask why, but to me this one looks kind of like a magazine cover.

Now, let’s move on to another Gideon gallery; here he is, together with some of the other Zootopia cast members.

With Nick of course.

It is reported that shortly after Benjamin Clawhauser left his shop, Gideon Grey was seen to hang up a ‘Sold Out’ sign.

As we’ve mentioned before, one of the more popular ships in the Zootopia fanart community is Gideon Grey and Sharla, (Judy’s childhood friend.)

What if Gideon had a long, lost cousin?  (This looks a bit like some classic Disney animation artwork.)

Having been there himself as a kid, it makes sense that an adult Gideon wouldn’t like bullies.
