Description
Temporarily moved to scraps so I can figure out what I want to do with this one...Reference:
First a riddle! "What has fur, feathers and is cute all over?"
Okay, not so much a riddle, but you go it anyway I'm sure...
Who is she? The Sphinx!
Where is she from? Jason and the Heroes of Mount Olympus!
The story? Okay, so picture about 5 years ago or so, I was stuck at home sick and all there was to watch was *ugh* daytime TV. Anyway, I flipped past this crazy cartoon which I at first thought was some Tiny Toons spinoff, but no it was some weird low budget cartoon about Greek myths, except I think all the gods were Warner Bros-esque animals (well, low-rent Warner Bros at least). Anyway I paused on this oddity for a moment as it was basically the beginning of the show and almost right away; Sphinx all in my face.
Well, I liked her right away, whoever designed her or at least whoever drew the keyframes gave her some great extreme poses and expressions. She didn't just sit flatly on the screen like the rest of the main characters, she got around seemed fun.
I don't really remember much of the plot (it's been 5 years), but basically Jason (?) is gonna have a picnic with his furry, godlike friends (Hermes and Venus *I think*), for some reason he has to go visit the Sphinx to avoid some bad juju from the villain (guess, c'mon I dare you guess who the villain was on a budget cartoon about Greek gods), anyway she was all PMSing because a dragon man had stood her up on a date, and just as she's about to eat the l'il heroes they do something that makes her laugh. She spares them because she hasn't laughed in ages and they agree to help find her lizard love and get 'em all back on together. The rest of the plot you can connect the dots with here (again, very basic stuff).
I really had to dig for this one, I will be shocked if anyone else can find references of this particular character but she really stuck in my mind after 5 years (I dunno, maybe it was the DayQuil?) so it was time to make some fan arts of her.
Cheers,
AT

It was like a cuddly version, they had some great designs though from what little I've seen.

But wait there's still time!!...
Russian! Darnit, but I have trouble speaking eloquently in english and that's my first language.
Election fever today in the Uk as the country goes to the polls. For the first time in a while everyones' minds seem to be on the outcome. There was alot of interest in the US election in the Uk at the time, I'm not so sure if the same can be said about other countries being interested in the Uk election.

Ooh you know, you're right! I think I will add that
Well being here in Soviet Canuckistan I'm quite interested in UK politics and have been watching the madness from afar... on the upshot the Americans only go gaga over themselves so thankfully election coverage isn't on EVERY channel

Your art is awesome as always though : D

Thank you so much, this was one of the more obscure things I could think of that would have been somewhat recent

Wow AT, that is pretty cool! Yeah man it was the Dayquil, it did you in! LOL! Nevertheless the pic looks awesome! After you seen that, did you remember if it was just a "one shot" thing or did you ever saw anything else about the cartoon?

Oh the cartoon itself is a whole series (22 episodes at least), I think the Sphinx is only in one or two episodes.
I also just remembered something else, she was voiced by Jennifer Hale!
