There's a story behind this picture. I think it'll haunt me now.

OK, nitpick: the bottoms of Leela's ankles are too thin. (But then, she's also twice the size of Fry.) Her hands may be a teeny bit too big as well. Other than that, no problems. I like Leela's expressions, and Fry looks very pensive.

Chris gets the blame for this one.

Now that's some fast drawing.

I do like this very much, particularly Marge (yeah, but you know what I mean). It seems that Leela's eyes (!) are a bit too big for her face, but I'll leave the nitpicking to the professionals. Enjoyable and confusing stuff!

This is another one that would look even nicer coloured.

I'm not really ashamed for suggesting this. In fact, I'm proud.

This... is madness.

In fact this is Fry. As a woman. Yes, it is that thing again, all of which shall be made clear once I get the fic finished. Now in colour!

I've just managed to, ah, acquire Adobe Illustrator and spent an hour playing around with it, using this picture as the practice. The lines are a result of that. I'm posting the freakin huge version because I'm a sadist and want to punish people with dialup. get with the times people! But seriously, I'm doing it because I can, and I'm the admin.

As for the subject, well, as I said it will all become clear. Try not to break your brains too much.
Added a smaller version.

My first thought was, "wow, Fry's mum really cleans up nicely."

And then I realized it was actually Philip. D:

It's a nice picture, though.  Very nice picture.

It's like the mental equivalent of being squashed by an anvil and doing an accordion take...but in a good way.

FRY: At last, I can get any guy I want! -- Wait, crap!

I like the kind of vintage scifi/horror movie-feel to this one. Nitpickery: a few of the lines cross each other over, but that's easily fixable.

Well, if that ain't a good picture, I'll be damned. Do her breasts look a bit too... um... pointy, though? It might be just me.

Heh, it's somehow quite fitting that the comic book guy would be neptunian as an alien. More hands for important things like pizzas or tacos.
I quite like the perspective on this one, but he could do with a tounge perhaps?

*sings* He's the Angry Mulit-Armed Nerd...

Great pic, but I can't read the sign behind him.

And as for Phillip(a) Fry(ina?), I think it's a pretty good drawing.  It's a bit disturbing, but I've been watching a bunch of David Lynch movies lately, and this isn't nearly as disturbing as his stuff.

The sign does probably need adjusting a little. It's bad perspective. :)

Funny, you're the second person to say this. he did have one, but I forgot to ink it in, which was a very silly thing to do in hindsight. No worries though, I can fix that. ;D

The Marge and Leela sketch looked interesting, wouldn't mind seeing that one inked and coloured.

Ahh, well I'll put it on my list then. :)

Regular and high-res versions. :) I've also got a 3000+ wide version if anyone's really desperate to fill up several monitors.
