Second in this sequence of 6, Tina now tests out her "handiwork" (I never really defined if she did this herself or had someone dig up the yard here). So far, those platform-soled maryjanes are more than up to the task of keeping her feet above the mud, as she smiles in self-satisfaction. But if you look closely at the mud texture, you'll notice it gets smoother and there are more puddles. You don't suppose it's getting...deeper, do you?

Technical:
Sharp-eyed viewers might spot some stylistic differences between this and the images fore and aft of it. The reason this image is termed "zero-A" is that it is the second of two images added before the "real" first image of this sequence. As mentioned in its description, image 0 was penciled in 2017 and Tina's head was copied from the next image in order to maintain the modified style I drew her in five years ago.

For this image, I only made the decision to insert another pic within the past month, so this one is a 100% digital drawing from August 2019 done completely in Clip Studio Paint. All other pics in this sequence were first done on paper and then scanned. Owing to the stylistic differences and posing here, I had to try harder to mimic the style of the earlier artwork. Digital certainly makes it easier, but I had my fair share of do-overs, though they still don't compare to the time neeed to render that mud texture. Hopefully as she gets farther along, I can simplify this, as it is supposed to get a good deal sloppier before she reaches the end.

Digital drawing done with Clip Studio Paint EX. Fourteen layers and 17MB in CSP's .clip format. Project ID# 261
