Edit 05.10.08 You guys are wonderful. Thank you so much for the Daily Deviation of this piece. Some things about it are cringe-worthy to me, and I've worked on my masculine issues since then (I haven't drawn enough ladies), but I'm incredibly grateful all the same. the dA community is a very loving one, indeed.

This was chosen to be included in the Pepper Project.

Edit: Some changes made to suit the character more clearly prop wise. I had to cut some losses on the theme a little bit, but I think it may be for the better. It really is kind of difficult to make these changes without further complicating a theme or making it just confusing. Plus without making it seems like props were thrown in haphazardly. So, its okay if I get more comments like "wtf, huh, i dont think its them, she's weird looking etc etc". ^_^

As far as the facial preferences, its really something of habit. I'm studying more facial variants, really. I want to improve, but I also don't want to mold to the desire to make just another pretty face. With Wanda in particular. I think Kunkka designed her awesomely and it'd be disheartening to wonder if he snarled at an ugly mug. She seems more apt to wearing that attitude on her shoulder and I adore that. So, just let me have my anatomical adventures in a realistic possibility okay?

Thank you guys so much for your support and willingness to be honest.

I hope I do these characters justice. Even though I took them into my art world, they are still strangers to my heart. I do believe I was able to put a piece of myself into their world. I hope I do not let down these women, their many fans and of course their creators.
