If you've gotten this far, you've probably noticed a lack of male characters. The primary reason for this is, well, I like drawing the ladies. ;) I think that this dearth of art featuring the guys is because, at the time, all the guys I drew looked -- girly. I still have this problem to an extent, but I think I've gotten better. Anyway.

Cheesecake (January 1996)
|
Bethel Duryea, aka Blue Rocket, dressed to kill. In spite of all the female characters I'd drawn, I hadn't yet drawn one in a cheescakey manner, so I thought I'd change that! I'm happy to say, this one gets good remarks.

Skyline (December 1996)
|
|
Sonarr, living it up above her hometown, St. Louis. This one's unfinished (a word that's way too common where my stuff is concerned) because I lost my grey Prismacolor pencils. Now that I have those colours, I should remedy this situation. BTW, once more, I don't think the date is accurate, but I don't recall exactly when I reached this point, so Dec 96 is as good as any.

Jump! (March 1997)
|
Here's one I started sketching while waiting for my turn at LaserQuest in Wichita. She started out as some random chick, but before the evening was over, I knew exactly who she was supposed to be -- Sonarr's younger sister, Tiffani!

Ta-Daah! (March 1997)
|
Tiff was designed to be different from Deb -- no powers or magic or anything like that. To make up for that, she's hyper and she's smart. She creates some amazing and odd things from common household artefacts...

Picture Day (March 1997)
|
Another boring day in school. An attempt to draw a character in "regular" clothing.

Armed and Dangerous! (April 1997)
|
Just Tiff, being mischievous. If nobody else has taken credit for inventing a hand-held catapult out of a rat trap, Tiffani calls dibs!

Hovering Lotus (May 1997)
|
"Sonarr hovers to about four feet above the ground, and crosses her legs into a lotus position." It's a running gag. If you don't get it, don't worry, you aren't meant to. :)
This was originally just a throwaway picture, but I thought it looked too good to not share. I'm too lazy to erase the blue lines -- they're a bitch to remove!

Trash Talk (July 1997)
|
More fan art! This is a piece I *really* need to redraw, as I do *not* do these characters justice with this picture. I believe it was my first real attempt at anthropomorphic characters, which is why they're so evilly drawn. Anyway, if you've never read Ozy and Millie, do it!

Faceoff (October 1997)
|
|
An unfinished pic of a showdown that, at the time, was impossible. Oh, Sting vs. 'Taker is quite possible *now*, but the Stinger is sticking to his principles, and doing the family thing. It'd be great to see a comeback, of course. WE WANT STING! WE WANT STING! heh.

Havermann! (Fall 1997)
|
This is a gift piece for Havermann, the anthro raccoon character who hosted the game show style trivia game called Spam! on FurryMUCK, a game I was quite fond of. Yes, it's unfinished as well, and in need of some alterations, at the request of the owner of the character.
