Description
One of pieces I did for Palladium Books [link] relaunch of the Robotech [link] line. An example of one of the Occupational Character Classes available, the Urchin. Children orphaned by the Invid Invasion and the subsequent attempts by the Mars Division to liberate the Earth, they're kids who live by their wits & have to be tougher than they look to survive the shadow of the alien Invid. And example in-series of an "Urchin" character would be Annie "Mint" Labelle, the tagalong scavenger who seemed to be the "team pet" for Scott Bernard & co.

In the book she only appears as the line art, but I added some grey to her jacket here. They have little in the way of starting equipment, possibly one or two personal effects. I figured a violin & case (wonder what it's name might be?) and a pendant (that might reveal an undiscovered lineage?) would set off the character as energetic and cheerful, despite of a hard life. I also drew her using a towel to cushion her shoulder while she plays and dances. The description for Standard Equipment actually listed some toiletry items... so... I figured her for the sort of girl who really knows where her towel is!

All this said.. yeah... hmm.. the sawed-off stature, the blonde hair in a ponytail... the violin... (what might it be named now?). Heheheheheh... glad I snuck this much into that book. ^_^
