This is Marian. She likes to lick.
Oddly this frame from a recent page of SLOP was inspired by a strange memory from my childhood. See there was this show that ran from 1976 to 1980 called the Gong Show... And if someone can tell me how a memory of that odd talent show inspired this, I'll draw them something.

I aired. As a small child I saw it.
The episode is even mentioned on Wikipedia.
Quoting Wikipedia:
There are a number of moments for which The Gong Show is famous. Most memorable was an act called "The Popsicle Twins", which consisted of two women, made up to look like teenaged girls, sitting on stage and provocatively sucking Popsicles while the song "I'm in the Mood for Love" played. According to Barris in an interview years later, the censors would regularly nix acts that he thought were safe enough to air. So, he made it a point to submit acts to the censors that were totally over the line so that some of the questionable ones would slip through. The Popsicle Twins was, in Chuck's mind, totally over the line and he submitted it as cannon fodder. However, the censors missed the metaphoric significance of the act, and let it air. Supposedly, the Popsicle Twins were only seen on the East Coast because the switchboards were flooded with complaints as soon as it aired, and the act was taken out before broadcasts in other time zones. Some ten seconds of this act may be seen in The Gong Show Movie.

I was an east coast child. The act didn't make sense to me back then. It was ony a few years ago that I saw a clip from that episode that it finally made sense. *Grins*
Anwyays, I must draw you something.

Artings for me? I don't know if you've ever drawn any dragony sorts, or include them in your world...but I would just squeek with joy if myself or even my mate and I were to appear in your comic, even just walking by in the background or something. (Jalen is the dragon with the curved horns...there's lots of artings of both of us in my gallery)
Of course, if that's not your cup of tea hon, draw whatever you feel like. ^_^

Slop is a webcomic I draw.
Its at www.rustedtusks.com
Though I suggest you use this link link instead:
http://www.rustedtusks.com/slop/ind.....p;p=1&nc=1
It will take you to the first page of the comic rather than the most current.
Be careful navigating the comic--the interface kinda sucks.
