Too Soon?

Gift art for my friend Vicki, whom got the 6000th hit on my art page. Look, it's those two dudes from Death Note. Did you know that I generally shouldn't put anime characters in my style? I'm pretty much only in the clear with Tezuka's characters.

Well now that's wonderful

So apparently, if I make a character with black hair covering half of their face, there's a higher chance of that character being the most popular one in the strip. There must be a sexual trigger about it or something

Such is the case with Rick Jones, the chain-smoking 17-year-old best friend of the titular character in Quinn.

I don't want to get all weird on you people at 9:38 in the morning, but I can't believe a character based on dozens of different kids from my school living in crap lives became the best character.
