Image of the Day: Obligatory "Chick" Drawing #1

CLICK FOR MORE G-RATED FUN! (20k)

Second only to the Battle Chicken is the "random anonymous chick" drawing. If I'm on autopilot, this is the kind of thing I'm most likely to draw, which isn't too surprising since, well, all indications to the contrary, I AM A GUY! I try my best to draw "realistic" women, or at least as much so as my style allows for these days... if these pics are driven by some inner desire, it's more sappy than prurient.

If I keep my promise to myself that I will post a new drawing to this blog every day, then there will probably be many many "random chicks" on here before too long. And battle chickens. But most of all battle chicks on random chickens... or something like that... I gotta stop posting these things half asleep...

The color saved this image from the bin... I think... I'm doing all of this stuff on a laptop computer, so there's a chance the skin is all wrong. If the skin is bright pink or maroon or green and silver paisley, please keep this in mind!

BTW... does anybody have a suggestion for a better word than "chick"? I know some people find the word a bit offensive when used to describe women, but what I'm looking for is something that has the same weight as the word "guy" does for men... something that is less condescending than "girl" and less formal than "woman" or "young lady" or whatever... Most of the women I know use the word "chick" for this purpose, but I can understand why others would have a hard time accepting it.
