"You got Mel Brooks in my Monty Python!"

"Well, you got Monty Python in my Mel Brooks!"

(you'd probably have to as old as me – or JimmyDimples  😀 – to get the reference)

Probably didn't want you to see him waxing.

Well, the scenes where her biceps are flexing are pretty "wax-worthy"  😆

[David C. Matthews]

YEAH! That works!!

Probably be seeing more of her, as I plan on developing her into my first full non-PCC character project.

That will be interesting!! I'm already looking forward to it.

I've pitched something potentially profitable to DCM in the past, but he hasn't taken the bait. 

If five quality artists were willing to commit to a weekly schedule, I believe they could band together with a paysite and do fairly well.  The key is that there'd have to be new material every weekday.  Each would be expected to turn out one finished page of a comic serial every week, on a certain day.

I'd be willing to set this up, run it and absorb all hosting costs for 1/6th of the net revenue after the payment provider's fees.  Presumably the artists could divvy up the remaining 5/6ths equally or according to some other metric.  I expect that people would pay $10 a month for access, and that it wouldn't be too hard to get 500 to 1000 subscribers.  Retention should be much better than with most adult sites, probably 8-12 months on average versus 2-4 for most sites.  If the site had 500 subscribers at $10 each, that would work out to something close to $800 per month for each artist.

Or they could set it up themselves – I make no claim on rights to the idea.

It's that "commit[ting] to a weekly schedule" that makes me just a little hesitant to take advantage of that idea (and why I haven't pursued a pay site in the first place, and why I didn't bite the first time you suggested it).

But if there are other artists who'd be interested in joining me in this, leave a response here in this thread or a PM, and let's at least exchange some thoughts.

Fosters is a rather aweful beer that none but a select and strange few still drink.
'Tis merely become a colliquialism as seen above.
Hope that satisfies your mind, dear Walter.

heh… first comment I've ever heard about the taste of the beer.

What I remember about Foster's are the commercials they ran up until a couple of years ago, the "How to Speak Australian" series.

Examples:
-We see a large, tantalizingly juicy slab of steak sizzling away on a grill. A big, beefy hand reaches into the shot, and delicately places a single sprig of parsley onto the meat. The word being defined: "Salad". (The tagline: "Foster's – Australian for 'beer'.")

-A man in Aussie garb, with a dog (presumably a dingo?) standing by his side. A meteor comes screaming out of the sky and crushes the man, Wile E. Coyote-style, down to his feet. From under the meteorite comes a muffled "oww." – "Crybaby".

There were others, but those are the two I remember as being the funniest.

Nice work! It's obvious the girl in the pic likes big breasts, too, and isn't shy about showing them off! (I'm not a big fan of anthropomorphics, so I'm just kinda pretending that's a costume she's wearing  😆 )

I still have a LOT to learn about drawing, and artwork

A very commendable attitude! The artist who thinks he/she has learned all he/she needs to know about drawing will find his/her work stagnating. There's always room for improvement, and even an acknowledged master will usually tell you he's still trying to "get it right".

I like this a lot…

I like that you've toned down the massiveness and the vascularity just a bit from your usual fare. Images like the ones you posted in your previous thread are good for experimenting with the limits of muscularity, but they often result in figures that (to me, at least) don't look like they can move very well; whereas this figure is much more limber-looking, and able to move in the ways she'd need to in order to be a great fighter.

(Wouldn't you love to see her teamed with that wimp Legolas?  😆 )

[David C. Matthews]

Not bad-it would be even better if that David Banner guy wasn't in it.

to it.)

[David C. Matthews]

Ah!! Quite a few things make sense now… such as why the costumed character they had at the Disney-MGM Studios for awhile was being referred to as "Mrs. Incredible"!

Thanks for the info!!
