Not much to say. Did Jenn, inked. As usual, my lineart loses a lot without any colors behind it. I need to take notes on this kinda shit for my black and white stuff. Like SEP, strangely enough.
I’m getting over the “but what if I’m pissing this person off?” phase* regarding Karen Healey, so I didn’t go to any extra trouble making Jenn all gender friendly or whatever they call it. Though the pose is every bit as good as Amy’s, and fits Jenn’s character fairly well (as does Amy’s, by the way), I’m sure this would lose points because she’s leaning backwards. I’m sorry, because she’s “bending over backwards to make her breasts more prominent.” >_> (I also notice that I drew her head at the proper height compared to Amy’s, but drew her shorter than Amy, which is factually inaccurate.)
*This happens pretty often, but after a few days I always come to my senses and ask myself “just who’s holding the pencil here?” While a lot of ideas will end up sticking with me and influencing my work, for the most part I realize that I don’t actually give a fuck what a complete stranger would think of me if they even knew I existed. If by some act of masochism they read my comics, they’ll either like them, or they won’t, and I’ll keep drawing either way because I’m not doing this for their benefit. (Matter of fact, I’m being pretty fucking generous giving this stuff to them for free.)
(And by the way, she’s not bending backward to make her breasts more prominent. She’s looking upwards. If I’d wanted to make her breasts prominent I probably would’ve designed her with larger breasts in the first place.)
