Is this based on anyone in particular, or is it just from your imagination?

Looks pretty good,I would watch the neck though,It looks odd
somehow....Decent job on the fingers,needs bigger hips i think,
she could almost cover her hips with them hands...and a little
more attention to the pubic hair is needed...and maybe the boobs
are a little low...Not bad though,Keep drawing.
what else have you made?

It was from a drawing, which I created from some photos and modified a bit.
I'm no artist so it doesn't look much like who it's supposed to be. The photos
were from FHM Magazine (July) and were of Gail Porter.

That's my first one. I need to do some more drawings to copy first, and I've
just started a new job so I'm a bit pushed for time at the moment, but
there'll be more coming soon hopefully.

I'm afraid you are a bit confused over what the definition of ASCII
is. � is NOT an ASCII character. Many people's newsreaders will not
recognize it. Please replace all � characters with something else
(like, Y, for instance.)

What is an ASCII character?

Plain and simple, an ASCII character is a character you can see on
your keyboard, (taken from the alt.ascii-art FAQ):

    032 [space] 048 0   064 @   080 P   096 `   112 p
    033 !       049 1   065 A   081 Q   097 a   113 q
    034 "       050 2   066 B   082 R   098 b   114 r
    035 #       051 3   067 C   083 S   099 c   115 s
    036 $       052 4   068 D   084 T   100 d   116 t
    037 %       053 5   069 E   085 U   101 e   117 u
    038 &       054 6   070 F   086 V   102 f   118 v
    039 '       055 7   071 G   087 W   103 g   119 w
    040 (       056 8   072 H   088 X   104 h   120 x
    041 )       057 9   073 I   089 Y   105 i   121 y
    042 *       058 :   074 J   090 Z   106 j   122 z
    043 +       059 ;   075 K   091 [   107 k   123 {
    044 ,       060 <   076 L   092 \   108 l   124 |
    045 -       061 =   077 M   093 ]   109 m   125 }
    046 .       062 >   078 N   094 ^   110 n   126 ~
    047 /       063 ?   079 O   095 _   111 o

Any art that contains anything other than the above characters is
normally not referred to as ASCII-art.

If you don't believe me, read the FAQ; I believe Martin just posted it
recently.

BTW, the line length was fine in my newsreader.
Don't know about anyone else, though..

Clover - I hate to tell you this, but "|" *is* ascii - it's right down
there at number 124...

He used � (A Y with a little thingy over it), not |.
It appears as a | in your newsreader, because it can't understand
non-ASCII characters.

That's how it appeared in my editor. It looked identical to the ASCII
vertical bar character.

I used MS-DOS Edit to create this picture. All the broken vertical bars came
out as Y acutes in some newsreaders. For my next posting I replaced Shift-\
with AltGr-` (which looked absolutely identical in Edit) and it came out
alright.

So those Ys should be vertical bars. Sorry about that people.

WHY? Was it a year ago that people were recommending "OE-proofing"
images by moving them in two columns? That was OE4. Now, in OE5, it's
"don't use // in images", but the first-space-on-a-line bug from OE4
isn't mentioned much anymore. Next year, in OE6, it'll be something
else... My suggestion: Just ignore all that silliness and get a decent
news reader instead!

    "I see", said the blind man as he picked up his hammer and saw.

(For those that don't know who Gail Porter is, she's a Scottish BBC TV
presenter who presents music programmes mostly)

That explains the slightly disproprotionness of the picture then, since GP
is a strangely proportioned woman.

Nice pic, though!

Almost any "viable" mailreader.. Eudora, Outlook, to name a few.
