Description Since Jenti didn't win the final round of the Queen of Summer final round shinragod.deviantart.com/art/Q… . I thought I'd draw her looking badass in her ninja clothes with her twin katanas.

Ah; one of the first fan art of Jenti! This is a real treat indeed. :-3
Love how she is holding her short katanas. It is looking really awesome!
But her face is what I like here. You drew her so lovely and cute yet so awesome at the same time! You got her dangerous but charming personality down nicely.
I'm gonna focus more attention on Jenti next year and her adventures with Rioichi. And this early piece of fan art of her helps motivate me. Many thanks Zig man!! You drew one of my more obscure characters and she looks awesome!!

I just couldn't resist drawing her with how much attention she got in the contest.
I thought it would make her look a bit cooler to have her katanas facing back instead of forward. There's just something awesome about that.
Her face was actually the thing I was worried about the most when drawing this. I usually draw my characters facing left and when I draw them going right, it comes out looking off in some way. I was hoping to get her looking cute but ready for action in this, so it's good to know I got that right.
That's great, I'm looking forward to seeing more of Jenti. And You're welcome! I had a blast drawing her and I'm looking to draw some more of your characters, so if you have any special ones in mind you want me to do, just let me know.

Im rather surprised at the attention she got myself. Guess that's what told me to start paying more attention to her. Lady Malmsteen and Lizzy have had their moments. It's time for my other gals to shine.
I agree! The katanas facing backwards are a lot cooler! I can't quite put my finger on it but it does simply spell out "bad ass."
I know what you mean about a character facing one direction And her body another. We are consciously thinking whether it not that could happen to a body IRL. Contrapasto I think we call it.
Even if it does look slightly off it still looks great. The face you have her totally works. : D
Im glad you liked drawing her. Through this contest I held Zi enjoyed it too. And it's definitely time for me to bring her back in the forefront.
Aw that's just great. You're too kind to be willing to draw another on of my characters. Im truly appreciative of that.
Any I have in mind? Well maybe...ever draw Mai Ling?

Yup, Lady M and Lizzie have gotten some incredible drawings and are some of your most well known characters. So it's great to see that some of the others will get a chance to reach their level.
True, even if we can't explain how it's cool, that doesn't take away how awesome something like that is.  
Whoa, I didn't know there was a term for that and with a cool name to boot.
Well you've got a lot of great characters that I'd be happy to draw. Mai Ling ? Wow, I was browsing through your gallery and Mai Ling caught my eye. I was hoping that you might ask me do draw her.

I don't anticipate my other characters reaching the same peak as Lady Malmsteen in terms of popularity. And Im ok with that since The Lady is my crowning achievement. But it would be neat if that did happen.
The term contrapossto is one I took to heart from art class. It's best described here: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contra…
It basically tells the importance of weight on one foot and how it effects the body thereafter when drawing it.
Sweet! Looks like I made the right call. I bet Mai will look just great in your style.
Thank you again for this. It's nice to see you're willing to give my characters a chance to shine.

Whoops, I meant to say that your other characters would be as well known as Malmsteen. You're right in saying that she's your crowning achievement, I don't know any other TUFF Puppy OC as recognizable as she is.
Hmm, interesting. Probably should of paid more attention in art class or else I would of known of about this.  
I should have Mai done tonight and posted tomorrow morning and she's looking great.
You're welcome. It's what I do. I like seeing other artist's characters and giving them all the chance to be drawn and seen equally.

Well I never thought she would go as far as she had; but there you go. I don't anticipate (nor should I) making another one like her. Sometimes one moment of glory is good enough.
Well it all depends on what art class or what teacher you have. Among other things it was body weight they stressed heavily to me.
I bet she does. And in your style she will be as charming as ever! Im looking forward to it.
I can see you've done that for many people; including John. You're a very generous and supportive artist. We are lucky to have a good hearted and talented guy like you.

Wow, Ziggy. Jenti looks pretty badass, here.

I wonder if she was good friends with Tomo Ame Katswell back in the day.

Thanks!

It would be cool to see them do a team up and take on some bad guys.

Maybe I'll draw them together ready to take on their enemies.

Sure thing.

They could take on some Kappa warriors, which are basically diamondback terrapins ( msa.maryland.gov/msa/mdmanual/… ) wearing rice-picking hats and ninja pants, wielding Kusarigamas: ninja-fitness.com/wp-content/u…

Well more specifically John; she was close friends with Rioichi Cooper and went on many adventures with him.

But I know you crossover TUFF and Sly on ocassions; so maybe they met at one point.

And the way you draw her in ninja clothing while wielding two katanas, looks pretty impressive!
