Marilyn Norma Fawcett - Swimsuit Poster

In between all the school work and long work shifts, I'm still trying to do my own stuff in the free time I'm trying to squeeze in. I'm still working on Marilyn's updated model for the line-up, and during that process I got the idea to draw a picture of Marilyn based on Farrah Fawcett's famous swimsuit poster because Mary's last name is, well, Fawcett.
Her name's a combination of Marilyn Monroe's first name and Farrah's last name; heavy inspiration is also taken from the two to develop this character.

A friend of mine suggested that I ought to do one based off of Monroe's famous skirt photo, which sounds like a very good idea to pursue.

Robert Sketches and Doodles

Here's a couple of digital sketch pages I did of Robert!
For Robert and Marilyn, there isn't a lot of exploration since I already figured out these two characters already. Robert was pretty straight forward in this case.

Marilyn might take a bit more time because she has more outfits for her, and also she's my favorite one to draw. She's the last one I need to do before fully completing the task of updating the Class of 2422 line-up.

Going back on a point, I think that's probably why the reason it's taking more time than usual to revise this line-up: everyone here has more than one outfit. Unlike Propinquity where everyone has one outfit and one pose each, the Class of 2422 characters all have at least two outfits each, and I wanted to draw a different pose with each different look.

Of course, I could just draw one pose for each and just swap out their outfit instead, but where's the fun in that?
