Description
So there I was, in Philidelphia this past summer with my father, along with his brother and my cousin who were father and son themselves in point of fact, and we encountered a city tour, the likes of which I have never seen before. Ride the Duck, they said, and introduced me to a car that can travel on water as well as street. I'd heard of such things, but never seen, and it was fun. What stuck with me was their constant cry to ride the duck, and there I was, drawing up a mental image not unlike this latest piece you see here before you. That was half a year ago. It's not my fault it took this long to finish. I had things to do, and the early drafts didn't work. Hope you like, hope you comment.Related content

Dude, to be honest, you didn't even need to explain this piece. All you need is the picture to make us happy. Starfire + Bikini + Duck = Epic win. The only thing that's missing is her drinking a bottle of mustard. Great picture man

What makes you think the mustard is lacking? She's riding on a sea of something, and does it look like water?

Ah. I didn't realize that was mustard. To be honest I couldn't really tell what the background was supposed to be.

I'm reminded of Invader Zim when Zim told GIR to "Ride the pig".
That duck seems both terrified and ecstatic at the same time.

They have them in Seattle, too, which is the first place I heard of them. Heehee. Our tour guide reminded me of Starfire, actually! Not how she looked...she had brown hair and brown eyes...but her attitude was all Star. Is this because Seattle is the Original Home of Starbucks?
*Giggle*
Not making fun of any Seattle-ites (as I learned it was proper to call them ), I very much enjoyed the visit!
*Waves to Seattle-ites, if there be any here*

Well, I'm a New Yorker, so even if you were making fun of Seattle folks, you wouldn't hear a complaint from me. Nobody seems to like New Yorkers ^_^

Well, technically I'm really a Long Islander myself, but I don't like broadcasting that. I like the city much better.

I've been to Boston once, I think, but I wasn't there long enough to ride the duck.

It's okay, you'll learn all about the ducks and the bees when you're older.

Brilliant! Starfire looks really really good in this, and the duck does too. The colouring is top notch as usual, and fine work on the shading and highlighting too. Really like Star's expression.
