Description
Another old Forever 16 remake - and this is actually my third take on this scene! My first color drawing of Abby was way back in 2007 [link] , and I mentioned I wanted to introduce her in a story where she falls in the school swimming pool and needs to be rescued. But I've reworked that story a lot since I first thought it up - now, instead of her shoelace getting stuck in the filter, she sinks to the bottom under the weight of her backpack. I drew that just last year [link] , but I've revised Abby's character design yet again since then, so I thought I'd do one more update. Plus, I'm a lot more proud of this pose, which I think does a better job of conveying a sense of weight on the poor girl's back.

As for her gallant rescuer...well, that'd give away the ending of the story, wouldn't it?
