Description
One of my oldest pictures ... it's now laminated and hanging on the studio wall next to the picture of me teaching an animation class and the Incredible's Movie Poster.Done back in 1993, a few days after my birthday while at the Country Hearth Inn on St. Simons Island. Got a lot of art done back in those days, along with some fan work of character like Lum from Urusei Yatsura and Pris from Bubblegum Crisis. I even did a concept image for the Cyberstation, an arcade down on the mainland which was turned down.

Is she going to be used like the Princess as well, or is she just a mascot, like you say?

A good question. T'Kay originally started out as an idea for a story I worked on throughout my college days. It started with my friends all having their own stories to write and characters to draw. I felt left out and went looking through some old works of mine. T'Kay had been ... like in her story ... packed in a box ... in the story she's found in Houdinni's Magical Box while she was packed in my old footlocker from my days at Cumberland College. Anyhow, I brought her out and started working with her.
Now, fast forward to today ... several thoughts had occured to me. One being that I'd like to do more with T'Kay ... and then it hit me when I turned the corner ... literally ... to the office yesterday morning. Why not have her appear in the story with the Princess? It would be easy enough ... and even would set up future stories. There's even an idea ... and this is where the thought really comes into play ... T'Kay vs Caitlynn. That would be interesting since Caitlynn originally came in right at the end of my SCAD days.

Indeed ... I was looking at it after submission and was thinking that the style holds up rather well after all these years.
