Fanart! ...can you believe it!

Well, I'm back from the convention and it was a blast! It was just so much fun. I had a blast and turned out some pretty good sales, too. Can't beat that, right? ^_^

...and while I was there, I had a request to draw a picture of a gal that I loved as a kid back when cartoons were still super awesome (some are today...but not like the bounty that existed when I was a kid ^_~ ) Anyway, you might remember a show called,
Chip & Dale's Rescue Rangers. If you remember that one, then you probably remember the leading lady of the team, Gadget Hackenwrench. ^_^ She was an inspiring character. She was a girl and yet she was not only brilliant, but beautiful, too. That's rare in shows that a brainy girl is also attractive. AND if that wasn't enough, she was a mechanic! Come on, how cool is that? ^_~ She was the epitome of girl power. So, I was delighted when I was asked to draw her.
Initially I was just asked to draw a pencil sketch. Here, this is it:



The fella wanted to see Gadget in an expecting way. Now, folks who know me know that I think pregnancy is just a gorgeous time in a woman's life. She's radiant and beautiful and she just shines with life. So, I wanted to show that for Gadget as well.

The pencils turned out well. I was pleasantly surprised since I've never actually drawn her before. ...and since it's likely that I never will again, I decided to just go ahead and do my best with this one and went all out. Uh...here, this is how it turned out:



All in all, I'm pretty satisfied with this one. She's happy and excited and...well...I'm just happy with the turnout. I really need to draw more pregnant images. They really inspire me ^_^ Anyway, I think that's all for now. I actually have a lot of work that I need to do and get done. Gotta go for now! See ya! *waves*
