Robert Hill

Robert Hill, also known as Bob Hill (died December 14, 2018), was an early fandom furry artist, writer, fursuiter and professional fursuit maker.

Fandom involvement
Robert Hill was involved in Rowrbrazzle in the early years, sometimes doing stories with artists Pat Ortega and Wendell Washer.

Fursona
His main character was Vawlkee, a Russian wolf-morph. Later he dropped out of Rowrbrazzle and began drawing hermaphrodite, Disney-style bears in various leather outfits. He published two collections of these drawings, Slave to Fashion 1 and 2, before mostly vanishing from the web. In his later years his health was poor.

Though his original Vawlkee account at Fur Affinity became inactive, since August 2016 he posted his art there using a new account.

Fursuits
Robert's fursuits have been seen at many conventions, including as far back as ConFurence 0, and he wore some of them on the MTV special about furries when he was interviewed. His most famous fursuit is the Bambioid costume, based on the characters of the artist Jerry Collins.
