Description After getting some lovely close-up shots of everyone's favorite Young Justice ladies in the most recent episode, I simply had to sit down and sketch them for personal reference. I used screencaps for this, so I can't say I pulled it out of my head. I'm not to that point quite yet. But the only way to master a new style/ character model is to sit down and draw it. I did take some liberty with their hair, since the shots only went to base of their neck. I tried to get them pretty close to model though.

Artemis has a surprisingly angular facial shape. And the girls' eyes are surprisingly indistinct from one another, I guess because they're normalized to the show's particular style. Lots of fun drawing this though, and the fact that the episode basically sealed Wally/Art as a canon ship makes me happy.

You and me had the same idea. XD I have dozens of these in my sketchbook right now.

Haha, you probably have a significant leg up on me when it comes to their form then! Here's hoping it pays off for both of us.

Their faces are a lot easier, and hair, but that's it. Body types I'm hit and miss. I hope it pays off, otherwise I wasted a lot of time. XD

Thank you! And yes, it promises much awkward, bittersweet hilarity.

I wondering if any other of the girls and other Teen heroes/villans will show up? Who would you love to see make a YJ appearance?

Haha, Raven clearly. With a certain green-toned fellow on her arm. XD What, the least that the good DC folks can do for the overwhelmingly large BB/Rae fanbase is give them a cameo together.

Jinx would make more sense though, in terms of crossovers. But then, the two series appear to be in different universes or what-have-you, so I wouldn't really expect the same interaction...

...XDD I agree with everything you just said. I love Raven, but Jinx is my favorite charrie... but in ths incendent, Raven and/or Beast Boy would be better. |DD As much as I want Jinx to appear, and want more Flinx action, it wouldn't make sense. :c I mean, KF is after Megan right now, he's aready in a love-hate relationship with Artemis that I really want to come true...

I wish they would just do a freakin' Season Six and make us all be happy. Then I would shut up and say out of the producers' way. CN is to blame for the incomplete TT incident, though. >.>;

I feel like a traitor for shipping Flinx and now shipping whatever KF x Atremis is to be. xDD If neither Megan nor Artemis existed, maybe, but what fun would that be?

I love you for saying that! It would be so amazing to see (and I'd love to see BB show up in Raven's new show coming up.) And have Jinx flirt with KF and have Arty lose it! That'd be too cute!

Haha, that scenario honestly wouldn't surprise me. We'll have to see what the producers decide.

Although I'm very hesitant about this live-action Raven show. From what I hear, it'll (likely) be re-spinning her story without including the Teen Titans at all. So, let's see... live-action, broody loner heroine with a "dark past", dealing in the supernatural; why does this sound familiar? ...Yeah, this has Buffy/True Blood/Angel occult-drama-soap written all over it. -.-;

And the worst part is, the female audience eats that stuff up, so they'll "stick to the formula" to ensure that the show gets good ratings. And if they do include Beastboy, they'll completely violate his personality and play up the "beast" part, making him into this edgy, hollywood-ized bad boy, because again: that's what their audience wants. Maybe I'm just a pessimist when it comes to the quality of American television shows, but I doubt I'll watch said show for more than two episodes.
