My Latest "As Told by Ginger" Fan Art!

Last Tuesday, I made this adorable piece of As Told by Ginger fan art with Paint! I call it "The Fabulous BFF Trio of Sheltered Shrubs". Ginger Foutley, Dodie Bishop, and Macie Lightfoot, all drawn in my own cartoony John Kricfalusi-influenced drawing style (though the five fingers remain), are just having some grand dancing fun!

Want to know how I made it? Each of the girls were drawn seperately against a pink background.

First, I drew the ever-so-excitable Dodie jumping in the air...with her belly unfortunately exposed...

...next was the ever-so-adorable Macie...

...finally, the ever-so-relatable title character was drawn!

After the trio of BFFs (still not too sure why that friendship exists, or why Ginger haven't dumped

Dodie for Courtney) were created, I made a blank pink background, then, using the transparent "Select" tool, pasted the girls onto the background. Dodie and Macie were pasted onto first, and Ginger was added last in the foreground. Finally, some hollow hearts and stars were finishing touches, my name was signed, and TA-DA! The masterpiece at the very top of the page is completed!

This whole thing started because I was in the mood to kind of prepare for an animation I plan on making for As Told by Ginger's 15th anniversary. It will include those seperate character drawings, treated like animation cels, being brought to life. The experimental animated music video will star

Ginger, Dodie, Macie, and the other main characters dancing and moving around on flashy backgrounds!

I have other plans for the show's 15th anniversary, too. My upcoming rant on Dodie is one; it'll be on this site very soon!
