DISTRESSED DAMSELS: Fetchingly Bepantsed Emp (w/ Bonus Eyeglasses) sketch sets!

Behold, a bunch of loose sketch sets featuring the "civilian Emp alter ego" variation from Empowered vol. 12 that I've dubbed "Fetchingly Bepantsed Emp (with Bonus Eyeglasses)", akin to some earlier DiD sketch sets seen here. (Note that, in the linked post, I also described this variant as "Extra Voluptuous", but that's arguably a tad redundant given how I full-figured I draw Emp nowadays.)

You probably can't quite make out Bepantsed Emp's sketchily rendered captor in the first set above...

...but that's actually the Luna Ghost from the first live-action Scooby-Doo movie, as solicited in a recent Bigger-Spenders-tier art-request sketch set, which I'll excerpt below:

I noodled around with a further set of Fetchingly Bepantsed Emp (with Bonus Eyeglasses) sketches, as I might feature her more in Empowered vol. 12; note that I switched "FBEwBE" over to shiny (silk?) underpants because, well, that works better in my rather limited rendering scheme:

Note, however, that this set's poses were traced from an earlier, even looser bunch of sketches featuring a supersuited Emp in distress:

As is the saving grace of quickly sketched DiD sets like the one above, I was already able to scavenge some of the poses for use in actual Empowered pages, as seen in panel 2 of the vol. 12 "deathtrap" page below:

And note also that two different poses from the original sketch set were reused in the earlier vol. 12 page below, as seen with the first two "distressed Emp" images:

(Yyyyyyeah, I wasn't kidding about the "Extra Voluptuous" tag for modern-era Emp arguably being redundant.)

Anyhoo, there ya go; gotta say, I'm arguably more fond of drawing Fetchingly Bepantsed Emp than the similarly eyeglassed Sexy Librarian Emp that she's descended from, probably due to the latter's more complex costume. (Your Mileage May Vary in terms of preference, of course.)

Jeez, come to think of it, I don't think I've yet worked a Sexy Librarian cameo into Empowered vol. 12, which is otherwise jampacked with Emp variations. Yikes!

NEXT TIME ON THIS HERE PATREON: Ehh, probably more "Robot Comic" layouts, I'd imagine.
