Description This piece was requested anonymously. 

It also probably my first real request based on the fact that I repeatedly showed the requester my draft sketches and base colors just to get the final draft right.

So what we have here is the character "Shrinking Violet" from a show I think is called "Legion of Superheros" which I don't think I ever actually saw so I was very unfamiliar with her character. Not the first time I've been requested to do a character I wasn't familiar with (see Bloom's piece) 

You can probably tell from her name and costume design that she has shrinking powers, however the Requester asked me to draw a picture of her full sized kissing a nameless male character who has shrunken instead. And because it's a show that takes place in the future, he wanted to see this scene on a spaceship.

This was an interesting piece: it's one of the few ones I've done without a pose reference, so if the anatomy is a bit off then that's why. But it gave me a chance to work on extreme poses which I think I did pretty well with.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy this piece!

You did a good job for a character with whom you're unfamiliar.

Violet actually has been around since at least the 1960s in DC Comics as part of the Legion. In one episode of the TV show she had growing powers, and there was a brief stretch in DC Comics when a version of her had both growing and shrinking powers; in the comics at that time she called herself Leviathan. But the Legion is a very large team, so there are a lot of members to keep track of.

Well I imagine there is probably a few super heroes in the DC archives with growing and shrinking powers. But while I was looking up reference pictures I noticed there were a few different iterations of Violet, so I can believe that.

But 1960 though? I didn't know that. She's been around for a while then. 

Anyway, thanks! I'm always trying to improve.

She was also created by Jerry Siegel (the co-creator of Superman).

Jerry Siegel? So is he like the DC equivalent to Stan Lee over in Marvel? Because Stan Lee wrote for like hundreds of heroes, so it wouldn't surprise me if they had a guy over in DC doing the same thing.

I think he just created several members of the Legion of Superheroes.

Eh, well then he's contributed some to the DC story. But that's enough, especially if the series as a whole has lasted this long.
