Okay, so I FINALLY got around to doing up Sally for the Alternate Mobius universe I started a long time ago.
Before the crisis, Sally was the daughter of Mobotropolis' leader Max Acorn. She was always very interested in the operations of the kingdom and was interested in succeeding her father as ruler if the people would have her.
Though adept at leadership qualities, Sally was far from able to just take the reins herself being still too naive to the finer points of ruling an entire society and seeing the grander picture. She spent most of her time trying to envision new ways to improve the lives of her people and learn more about the workings of leadership. She'd share her ideas with her father who was receptive of his daughter's ideas, evaluating their merits, and explaining to her how they may not be the best course of action.
Then came The Event. When Robotnik invaded, Sally was naturally evacuated to Knothole with so many others, but her father was not. It is unknown what happened to him and now, Sally is the closest thing to order in the chaos brought on by Robotnik's takeover.
Sally had to lead lest she just step aside, which she could never do in light of the adversity her people were up against. She organized the Rebellion of those who could and would take up the fight to regain their homes from Robotnik using her skills to plot the campaign against him herself. Perhaps her biggest failing is the fact she never quite sees the greater picture in her goals and strategy beyond the immediate threat thus preventing any nearby victory.
Sally would go on to make friends with the city A.I., NICOLE, out of a shared sense of isolation and later commissioned Rotor to construct a portable unit that could allow NICOLE to take part in the fight and would become one of her most important assets.
The attire changes from a politician's daughter with all the public image trimmings to her Freedom Fighter form which is a more pragmatic one-piece that does what it needs. The idea was to stage this like the one for Hershey but I didn't quite account for the scaling so you can't see she's wearing her normal boots. In the show Bunnie wore purple but in the comics she wore pink. Either she looked like Bunnie or her future daughter. Green would have made her look like Cammy White (and I'm already using green for Bunnie).

Oh, I love this pic, hon! It's awesome to view this level of character depth in action. Knowing that Sally's outlook is being influenced by the harsh reality in which she's being made to rule, while she struggles to maintain the bright, hopeful nature of her youth. You did a wonderful job here, Kitty. I get this feeling of Sally's duality from your work here; but not in the sense that she's being torn apart. More like you're illustrating the importance of two key parts of her "self," and how each play an essential role in defining who she is. Innocence vs. experience:
Instead of choosing one or the other as the "right"answer, you've demonstrated that Sally is having to adapt and grow to meet the challenges of a dynamic, and often harsh, world--while at the same time holding onto her sense of hope and compassion. Thus allowing her to mature into a strong and balanced ruler, without becoming detached and cynical along the way.
…or am I reading waaaay to much into this?
Ah well, in any case, You did a fantastic job, Kitty-kat! I'm super proud of you!^x^~
