I have gotten many comments and messages saying that I stole Candy The Cat’s design from The Return To Freddy’s. All I can do is to prove you wrong.

November 21st 2014
I posted the very first image of Candy The Cat, I had worked on it that day and decided to post it for everybody to see. At the time Candy was just a blue cat-head, and yet he was one of the very first 3D rendered fan-animatronics in the FNAF community.

November 22nd 2014
I posted two more images where Candy now had more realistic shading that also bared resemblance to the glossy shading on the original Toy Animatronics from FNAF 2.

November 23rd 2014
I posted another set of images, I had reworked Candy’s jaw-area to make him look more like the Toy Animatronics, I had also created the upper parts of his body.
Later that day I also posted another image, I had added the “Toy signature” red cheeks to Candy’s face, I had even made “eye-scalers” for his eyes, so they could be re-sized with relative ease.
In the end of the day I posted yet another image, I had also created a red segmental tie for Candy, as I figured a bow-tie would be a little bit un-original…

November 24th 2014
The last image of Candy’s development stage was posted. He now had a fully rigged body with hands and everything. Candy was finished.

That is the story of Candy The Cat. Later I wanted to give him a twin-sister, so I created Cindy The Cat. Eventually I wanted to create more animatronics, and so came Blank, Old Candy, the Penguin, and the others.

My point is; The Return To Freddy’s came out on christmas day (December 25th 2014), which used many of the images of Candy that I had created, calling him “Sugar The Cat”.

The Return To Freddy’s 2, featured a custom-built version of Candy The Cat, again re-titled “Sugar The Cat”, with all the features (blue and white fur, and red tie).

So obviously I created Candy The Cat first, the character, AND the design.
