If it makes sense, then it should also make sense that any transformation be in a parrallel dimension or have a last only for short period of time, because once Sheri's "notmal form" becomes big, busty and muscular people can no longer fantasize about an "hyper-sheri"

Like I said, there's no danger of that in the srip continuity. :p

[Dr.Otto]

I guess that makes sense when you think about it. :p

Because back in 1987, nobody else I knew was drawing them. Seriously, I thought, "Ok, if women are gonna be superheroic, why the hell don't they look like it?" I drew my first draft of Andrah back in 1987 when I was in the military, and I never looked back. I'm told I'm kinda good at drawing them, too.

A more contemporary reason is because I feel that muscular women are often reviled or misunderstood; mind you, a lot of it is deserved. Still, not all of them are alike, and i feel the need to make that distinction in the majority of my work. Sure, I like to draw eye-candy as much as anyone else, but by drawing muscular women in a positive light, I might possibly bring a little bit of a positive slant to the perception of them. Andrah, who is arguably the most popular and recognizable of my women over the years, is known more for her spirit and heart than her strength…and THAT is a big victory, at least on a personal level, because I've gotten people to look at at least ONE massive woman as something other than a ballcrusher.

I'm with you there. I really like his (chronologically) older characters, like Tracy Powers and Bitae Sanoh, but the younger ones? Nope. If it don't say 18 on the profile page, I skip it. :p

I understand completely, Chris; it's why I am adamant, despite many fan requests, to see that Tetsuko remains the only buffed-out babe in her series (and there are times I wish I hadn't given Tet-chan such big breasts; that should've been Sonya's unique trait.)

Give her a surgical reduction, citing inability to carry through proper workout form with various exercises. Hell, if Lindy can have pontoons implanted to inflate her self-esteem and try to stay in the public eye, surely Tetsuko could have a reduction to allow herself proper workout form.

Here's an alt version with the raised bicep trimmed down a bit to match the approximate size of the relaxed one:

Why is it that everyone keeps asking to see Sheeri all buff and busty?  Here's what I believe: Andrah is loved for her muscles, Lindy is loved for her boobs, and Sheeri is loved for her potential.

Personally, I'd like to see the already-buff Andrah or even Lindy get a size boost.  Improvement upon perfection. 😀

I could never sort that out either, but I don't mind tinkering with fan requests outside the strip continuity. I suspect that the reason that she's usually the most requested of my lot is because she's more often than not getting kicked around or otherwise getting the short end of the stick, and I believe that people figure she'd have the most to gain from a sudden size increase.

For many of the points you mentioned, Andrah really is the anchor in this equation; if any other character in the strip were as immense as her, she would lose a piece of what makes her unique. Now you know why I never screw with the core dynamics of the character design within the context of the strip; it's all fairly balanced in terms of personalities and body type.

Full body images are tough to come by in my situation; I always run out of paper by the time the upper torso is massed out.

[Dr.Otto]

I think I'm approaching the upper limit of mass without losing form. Odd that Sheeri would be the character that I would end up practicing that with, but I figure you guys would get a kick out of it. For some reason, she's the one that I get the most requests to see massed-out. :p

[Dr.Otto]

I'll probably end up coloring this one and making it a desktop image over at PCC at some point.

How is the gameplay?  The system sounds interesting and its good to know that the caracters can actually buff up. 

It's not particularly in-depth, but there's a lot of alternate characters to unlock, so if you get into that aspect of it, it's pretty fun. The chartacters can get pretty big…in reality, each girl adds size and definition differently than the others do. So far, two of the most massive competitors are Dixie Clemets and Lambda (the create-a-wrestler default template).
