Higher Education

When did the school girl look come back in such a big way?
Whatever the answer is, it's still workin'.

I thought it never left? Either way, you'll not hear me complaining. Swell doodle, btw!

Still working? Yes indeed!

Nice calves!

As pumml implies, I didn't know it went away! Still, maybe the resurgence you sense is part of a broader prep thing I see among the kiddies these days.

I think it came back somewhere in the mid-90's? Seems like so many girls were dressed like that for Halloween. or maybe that's when I started noticing it. Whatevs... I ain't complainin' :D

English and japanese kids are lucky to have schoolgirls in uniform like this one in their class...
i don't understand how they stay focus on their work but they must be happy.

I may be crazy, but it has an awesome Kricfalusi vibe to it.

Chris Battle said...

Not too crazy-- I learned a lot about how to draw cartoon ladies from Lynne Naylor, who drew most of John's girls, as well as cribbing shamelessly from other former Spumco artists like Shane Glines and Craig Kellman. Learn from the best, I say.
