I’m think… think I might make this bunny girl my new Gwen.  I’ve been wanting to dive in and give her a redesign for a long time now, but I’ve been hesitant to do it.  I was no longer happy with her old look, I don’t draw like that any more and so I felt like I couldn’t relate to what I had drawn.  But I can relate to this.  I like this.  I’ll have to explore this design a little more before I am sure, but yeah… I think this is where I want her to be now.

When did being a geek become trendy or… normal.  When I was a kid, others made it their job to let you know that it wasn’t cool being nerdy.  I’m not saying that that doesn’t happen today, but it looks more widely accepted then a few decades ago.  I wonder this because I was out for free comic book day on the weekend I saw quite a lot of cute geek girls.  That for sure  didn’t happen when I was a teenager.  Although, if I was younger, I’d probably strike out with the trendy geeks too.  Anyhoo, all this thinking made me realize that I’ve never drawn a character with glasses.  So there you go.  One adorable geek girl. ^_^
