A pic for
Sandyschreiber, who wanted Egon investigating some fungus. I wanted to do something different and really make this picture special, so I went with different perspectives and techniques this time.
It's fun seeing Egon in his element and doing what he loves (well, outside of Ghostbusting!) Drawing him happy and relaxed was a lot of fun, and endearing. :)

Honestly I think you are the only person that I have seen draw them outside their own environment of Ghostbusting. Seeing Egon out in the field, well forest, and collecting spores, molds and fungus is awesome and suits him as a character. Great exploration idea and concept.
Sooo, maybe you can solve a mystery that's been haunting my childhood memories. If this was based on the original Ghostbusters, why does Egon have blonde hair? My only guess was they needed a token blonde guy and Egon drew the short straw. Egon/Ramis was always my absolute favorite, so I could never watch the cartoon cuz I felt like they replaced Egon with some blonde guy. >_>
Well, DIC didn't want to pay likeness fees, and they discovered that since the Ghostbusters are mostly white guys with dark hair, it was going to make it tough to tell them apart. So they redesigned them from scratch and made them all unique from each other.
As for why Egon is specifically blonde, I have no idea. But you might want to ask :iciongabbicoon:! She designed him! :)
