Description
Invader ZIM: The DOOM Movie!Character Concept Art
Item Number: CH_Sp_01-051
Name: "Merp"
Description: A defective who has been forced to work as a snack slave in Defective Area 9, spending day in and day out stamping out sodas and candies for the Tallest. But she has a bigger vision: revolution! Merp hopes to lead the other defectives in an uprising that will free them from the chains of the Irken machine once and for all! Now, if only the other defectives actually cared...
UPDATE 4/14/2015 - I added her final colors AND some of her final poses (minus the spider legs) as proof that I am in fact working on this character.
ALSO, this is her final head shape, which I think turned out nicely.UPDATE 4/19/2015 - YAY!
Her legs have been added! Gah, they were giving me a TON of trouble, but I finally got the hang of drawing them. 
Practice makes perfect! Now all that's left is her expressions sheet and a beat-up version of her.UPDATE 4/21/2015 - Fixed some minor flaws in her turnaround table (legs missing the caps, a messed up Defective Symbol, stuff like that
). Expect her final model sheet later this week! 
UPDATE 4/22/2015 - Bam! Added what she looks like when beat-up. Expect expressions soon (probably today or tomorrow), and - after that - perhaps a few specific notes regarding the character. Then the model sheet will be complete!
UPDATE 4/23/2015 - WOOHOO! It's done!... the drawing part, anyway.
My final step will be to add notes all over the place, pointing out things that I want artists to pay attention to when storyboarding or drawing or whatever, but - other than some extra notes - it's finished! UPDATE 4/24/2015 - DONE! DONE! DONE! DONE! DONE! DONE!
UPDATE 8/24/2015 - Fixed some typos that someone pointed out. Thanks!

I... never thought of that, really. She was either cloned that way or had an accident happen to her. Either way, that's not her defect per se, her defect is her revolutionary obsession.

It's okay. It's really not that important

So was she born without legs? Or was it some horrible freak accident?

"That's not... NATURAL... is it?"
The world may never know. Because I never bothered to think of why she's like that.

Hahaha! XD Any idea where her accent came from?

Nope!
As you can see, I was very meticulous on creating her character.
Basically, she's a normal Irken, apart from the legs and her main defect: an obsession on revolution. It was either my dad or me (when we were discussing IZTDM) who said it would be hilarious if she had a Scottish accent, because everyone associates medieval Scotland with William Wallace and their fight against Edward Longshanks's oppression.
Not that I'm making fun of Scottish people, either!

You know, I THOUGHT that might be what her accent was inspired by. XD That, or that maybe her accent is another defective trait.

Well, you thought right!

Anyway, she looks awesome. Great job!
