Description Erm, if you haven't seen the movie, then stop reading this.

Backstory:

"After saving Robot City from Ratchet, Piper received enough money to fianlly buy herself an upgrade. Wanting to impress Rodney, she ordered the "Enhanced" upgrade, and after refitting herself, found that the factory had sent her an "Enlarged" upgrade."

Yes, to any one who's read my stories, I know I can do much better, but I'm tired of thinking up semi-witty things to say. Don't bug me.

Things to Improve: In the movie, her eyes were smaller and spaced farther apart on her head. I might need to fix that with mine. Or not.

Not exactly the upgrade she wanted

You've reminded me that I really need to redo this; I was never all that happy wih how it turned out, even when I first posted it. Thanks for the heads up!

Was I that rude-sounding? I liked it, seriously!

You didn't sound rude, don't worry. Besides, this picture started out as a color test for my pencil crayons.

I'm impressed, and intrigued. Robots are a fairly uncommon subject for expansion art (at least this side west of Axel Rosered), and this is a very new take on it. While I wouldn't say that any character in this movie, even Piper, was exactly attractive... this is a valiant attempt to make her so.

Not that I expect multiple drawings of the same character, but future images of robot characters might be improved by drawing at a larger scale, with varying line widths, so you get all that fine-fine line detail when it's shrunk down. That can help achieve an appropriate blockiness while retaining the machined roundnesses.

In other words, I failed, but "nice try".

Thanks for the advice, though, I'll try that sometime.
