Swisss Misss

This is my try at inventing a human figure, and I suppose doing something slightly cheesecakey, which is different for me. It's not too bad, but she is slightly giraffe-necked. The more one practices with these sorts of things, the better one gets, but sometimes the improvement is only over a very long time.
I imagine if I just copied photos and other drawings it would have a much better "surface" finish, but this is just the way I bash around. Trying not to be an R. Crumb clone, either, though that's not necessarily a bad thing. I'm not as hip or as biting as him, (or as popular), neither am I as preachy. Still, I admire his habit of getting it out there no matter what people may think. Even though that has calcified into a bit of a pose by now. Still, he walks the walk, and I love his stuff.
I've heard interesting stories about Crumb, which I am not going to pass on here. Anyhow, I doubt that I could have been published in Weirdo, because I don't have an attractive wife (don't have a wife at all, actually).

Howdy!
Turn about is fair play. I don't think it is the neck per se, but the shoulders to the chest - she's gotta have the biggest collarbones this side of the Alps.
As for Mr. Crumb and his brrod, try these on for size:
Sophie - +33 (44) 62 74 59, 30 boulevard Ménilmontant, Paris 75020
Jesse - (707) 443-0640, P.O. Box 717, Bayside, CA 95524
