Duck Family - Tumblr Posts

After the Gearlooses, It's time to go bigger ! I present to you the Donald Duck family tree 😆😆

As you can see though, it mostly based on Don Rosa's tree, with the addition of Sir Simon McDuck. Specifically, it's based on Rosa's second tree which he would give to fans (especially the colors). Hope you like it !

There more to this though, so keep reading

Okay, the thing is that I'm planning to do an extended version of this. Aside from the characters above, I have already finished some non-Rosa characters. To name a few, they are Gideon McDuck, Rumpus McFowl, Dugan Duck, Douglas McDuck, Moby Duck, Kildare Coot, and Bhaltair McDuck. I'm thinking of adding more characters and dividing the tree into parts unlike Gilles Maurice's tree which has all characters in one picture. Also unlike Gilles Maurice's tree, I won't be having to include all family members from across all Duck media. As such, I made myself some rules so that I won't have to exhaust myself with too many characters. These include only focusing on the comics canon (especially the Barks-Rosa canon) and excluding relatives from other media unless they are integrated into canon.

There are two problems though. The first is that I can't really access all information of all family members of Donald in Duck comics. All the research that I get is through Wikipedia, INDUCKS, Feathery Society Proboards, donaldisme.dk, fan scanlations and the Fandom wikis. I don't really have any comics to my name, as there is no one publishing a Donald Duck comic here in the Philippines (that I know of). I only read comics through online sites. So, if you can share some information on some relatives that I don't know of please let me. If you ever get to tell me their personalities or the INDUCKS code to their debut story, that would be great 😃

Now onto the second problem which is really a big one. You see, I'm not always active and I don't really take this whole thing a top priority of mine. I see this thing as some kind of a hobby. I mean, the tree above took me months to finish(with my fingers and Autodesk). This? A very long time maybe or even never. So I'm not sure if this would even come to being. To summarize : "I'm not really sure if I could do this so I'm putting it in Keep Reading. I'm only asking if you might know any Duck relatives that I might not know."

I'm still thinking of making on the extended Donald Duck family tree. Though, that is if I get to finish all the portraits. To say, I only do the portraits when I want to and this is more like of a hobby of mine so it'll take days to finish a set. In the meantime, have this two sets of portraits I've made 😁

In # 1, we have Donald Duck, Della Duck, Fethry Duck, Abner Duck, Huey, Dewey and Louie's father, Gladstone Gander, Scrooge McDuck and Gideon McDuck. In #2, we have Matilda McDuck, Ludwig Von Drake, Rumpus McFowl, Dugan Duck, Goostave Gander, Daphne Duck, Eider Duck and Lulubelle Loon.

Note : Some of the portraits here were previously used in my other tree though if look closely, they're different. It is because I've changed it a bit. There's a chance that I might do it again which means that the portraits here are not the final version.

I'm still here! Sharing here another two sets of portraits 😁

Note : Some of the portraits here were previously used in my other tree though if you look closely, there's some differences. It is because I've changed it a bit. There's a chance that I might do it again which means that the portraits here are not the final version.

Now back with the 7th and 8th sets! 😁😁

This could be last featuring well-known Rosa and Barks characters so expect some potraits in future to be of obscure(kind of) characters. Again, if you're not familiar with some characters, keep reading 😊

the 11th set ! 😀

I'm back ! My god it's been so long, I blame college. Good thing I have something to show to make up for it. This time, it's more on the McDuck ancestors with some others. 😊

As usual, if you are unfamiliar with any of the faces, just keep reading 👌.

For this set, we have :

1.) Sir Slye McDuck(1st-2nd century) - ancestor of Scrooge McDuck. A sneaky medieval member of the Clan McDuck, Sir Slye MacDuich assisted King Malcolm II in 1018 in his conquest of the Angles as a spy.

2.) Sir Murdoch McDuck(11th century) - ancestor of Scrooge McDuck. For unclear reasons, Sir Murdoch held the local patent on longbows at the time. Thus, in 1066, when England was invaded by the Normans, the English Army signed a contract with Sir Murdoch McDuck so he could supply them with longbows not knowing that the arrows cost extra.

3.) Don De Pato(16th century) - an ancestor of Scrooge. McDuck. His Spanish ancestor who was in command of a treasure galleon covered in gold foil which he called "La Dorada". Later, he left the Spanish Armada in 1588. He was featured in "The Golden Galleon" illustrated by Tony Strobl.

4.) Frederico Von Pato - an uncle of Ludwig Von Drake. First featured in the totally contradictory "History of Duckburg" series. A friend to Gyro's grandfather Prof. Pardalto. Appeared in two stories with both being illustrated by Brazilian artist, Irineu Soares Rodrigues. He was given the unofficial English name "Friedrich Von Drake" by Gilles Maurice.

5.) Locksley Mcduck(18th century) - an ancestor of Scrooge. In around the 1700's, Locksley McDuck, decided to join rebelling outlaw Rob Roy to battle evil landlords such as Rob Roy. The partnership was, however, short-lived, for once they had robbed the rich, Locksley refused to conform to the proper Robin Hood tradition and give to the poor. His design here is based on an unknown ancestral ghost of Scrooge McDuck featured in Don Rosa's "The New Laird of Castle McDuck".

6.) Sir Donald Mcduck(15th century) - an ancestor of Scrooge. He was nicknamed "Black Donald" due to his foul temper. In 1440, Sir Donald invented golf, a sport that quickly caught on among the Scottish nobles. However, due to his temper which resulted in violent tantrums, King James II outlawed the sport in 1457.

7.) Upsy Duck - an uncle of Donald Duck. The peak of his career was becoming the first man to climb to the top of Mount Stratoshaft, in Switzerland. Unfortunately, while he was standing on top of the mountain, the wind caught his hat and carried it to the top of a small ice hill called the "Matterthorn" down in the valley. Upsy, due to the ice's slipperiness, was unable to climb to the top of the Matterthorn to retrieve his headwear, and he was disgraced. He was featured in a 1965 story "Mastering the Matterthorn" illustrated by Tony Strobl.

8.) Swashbuckle Duck - a great-uncle of Donald Duck. A big-game hunter, whose personality was transferred to Scrooge via a portrait as shown in the story "Outer Space Safari", illustrated by Tony Strobl.

• Characters such as Sir Slye McDuck, Sir Murdoch McDuck, Locksley McDuck, and Sir Donald McDuck are all creations of Don Rosa and were featured in the sketch-only prologue "The History of the Clan McDuck".

• Don De Pato would later be introduced in the animated show "Legend of The Three Caballeros" using the German name, Don Dugo. Although there is a big difference. In the original comic, he was only related to Scrooge McDuck but in the animated show, that relation was not shown and instead, he was an ancestor to Donald Duck through to his great-grandfather Clinton Coot.
