I'm just full of good ideas, aren't I?

So, a couple weeks ago, after I commented on MikeMedia's latest inflation pic of Jenny from MLaaTR, he asked me if I'd ever tried to draw her that way, and I told him I hadn't. But then I thought, hey, why not take him up on that? Why don't I try to draw a picture of...and then I thought, nah, not after he'd JUST submitted one. So then I got an even better idea. I got up next morning (same morning I drew my most recent pic of Zippy), started drawing a picture I'd been thinking of drawing for a while, thought about turning it into a B-Day pic, and then, well, see for yourself (one of the best ways I've found to channel my creative energy is just to pull out some paper and a pencil (or open a Word document) and just throw down the idea whenever I get a moment of inspiration. Try it sometime, if you haven't).

So here she is--Teresa, the Teenage Army Tank. With armor plating, caterpillar skates, and a launcher arm, this girl is pumped up and ready to roll. Now, Mike, I realized after I installed the launcher that you probably wouldn't want her firing off armor-piercing shells at your birthday, so SURPRISE! it shoots confetti. Who knows, maybe she's even got a few gifts in there (hope you didn't wish for anything fragile).

For the original sketch, I used Mike's "Teresa Model Sheet 01" for inspiration (I did no tracing, this is completely freehand--btw, the model sheet was a big help, thanks Mike). I used Mike's first pic of her to get the colors. Hope you're as happy with it as I am.

Happy B-Day, Mike. You're a cool dude and a great artist. Keep it up, bro! ^_^
