PRETTY SOLIDERS

Remember Toonami?  Remember how they aired those WICKED cool promos that made Sailor Moon look like Demon City Shinjuku?

Yeah.  Me, too.

Katie asked me to do this a while ago, but I've been trying to turn out a page of comics every day (so far, so good!),  and had trouble finding the time.  Tonight I just bit the bullet and did the thing.

This is Sailor Venus, my favorite Scout.  Sailor V stands for Victory.

CONTEST!!!

THE FIRST READER TO NAME THE ARTIST I STOLE THIS POSE FROM GETS THE SKETCH!

Love the image man! I'm always a sucker for half-tone. Also, the answer is: Edgar Degas.

Degas... earlier time zones have an unfair advantage.
Looks good Jake. please do keep up the good work.

This is awesome. And I don't even LIKE "Sailor Moon"!

Pretty!! Looks very Claire Wendling-esque to me.

Awesome. Yeah, Degas. I was just talking to someone about Sailormoon recently. Love those cats. Sweet drawing, love your work.

I always liked Mercury...but Sailor V was a stand-alone for awhile there.
Super solid.

I have fond memories of Toonami's promos for Sailor Moon. I felt that when the boys at school saw how AWESOME it looked, even next to DragonBallZ, they could never pick on me again. Hah! I love how you drew Artemis and the band-aid on V's knee. She looks great!
