Description Took me long enough. This is for 's origin project based on the DC Origins Pages . This is page one.

Anywho, a brief summary of Julie's background. She was born in New York into a family of separated parents. They divorced when Julie was very young and custody was given to her mother due to her father's poor coping skills and unemployment. Julie was crazy for her father who was a kind but neurotic man who couldn't hold a job because of an inability to leave his cluttered apartment. He was always overjoyed by Julie's singing, dancing and acting who found it an enjoyable distraction from his situation.

Her life changed and began running the course it's on when her father dies in a house fire. She blames herself and her mother and begins to idealize him and demonize her mother. At 15, she leaves home because her mother decides to remarry and discontinues contact with her and her half three sisters. As soon as it was legal she changes her name to Julie after Juliet. (crazy train) She pursues an acting and singing career because that's what her father would have wanted or so she thinks.

I wanted the script to look like a stage script bolding the most important elements. Hopefully it came out okay. I can't tell anymore. XD

Sorry it's taken me so long to comment *facepalm* I rather like this - a lot simpler than mine and on reflection I would have kept mine a bit shorter. Ho hum.
Something about this looks different from your usual style and I can't quite put my finger on it *frowns*
I rather like the typical femme fatale pose at the top
I look forward to the second part when that comes around. And that's not condemnation - I have things lurking on my harddrive that need to be pushed out soon.

I really wanted her backstory to be streamlined for this. The details really aren't meant to be in an introductory page like this. I only wanted to have the very basics. And I actually got it two sentences. Both written at work behind my little counter at the museum. XD

The style is actually the same but the coloring style is different. I went more with my instincts on this one. I used softer brushes instead of hard edges that I use for cell-shading. I really like the couch. I don't know about how the rest turned out.

It's so cliche but it fit and it looks nice. XD

My harddrive has an Qwlman, Harry Potter fanart, and flash projects that have been on there for AGES.

I'm so sorry I haven't been on lately. I haven't had a day off work since we last talked.

This page took a long time. It's been sitting on my harddrive for over a month.

It's cool, Emif. I just hope we can talk again and work together. Keep the drawings coming!
