And done! Wasn't sure what to do with the background so I threw this together. It was either that or draw all the guys like they were pressed up against a plate-glass window, drooling. :)

Finally added in Miki, and made a lot of other small changes as well. Cara looks a bit less frumpy, the four main ladies got a bit more hip and thigh, I tweaked Sandy and Pirta's suits a little, added possibly a bit too much heft to Tawny's chest, and shrank Kasi's hands quite a bit.
Still need to...

Cleaned up, inked, scanned and digitally remastered. Moved everybody a tad closer together, fixed little bits with the various poses (like Tawny's head) and started adding their various spots.
Not happy with Pirta's expression, or any of the five bigger girl's hips. Cara looks too frumpy, might ha...

Another teaser for a bit of upcoming art, this time a sort of "model sheet" of all the TWB ladies, in swimsuits. :)
This one will likely get posted on the Cast Page when done, in case any of you artists out there want to have a better idea how their various color and spot patterns look.

Sorry I haven't been able to work on this- or much else- recently, but as always, sometimes shopwork takes precedence. I have, at least, cleaned up the linework, at least most of it.
I took the "edited" copy, and enlarged it, did a little alteration (raised her head up a bit, as the neck was too s...

Got the gun redrawn and most of the color is done... and then I saved the original as a reduced JPG instead of the full-size TIF. (Slaps forehead.)
Not too big an issue, I still have Sandy as a full-size in color, and the B&W linework for the gun as separate files, so I only really "lost" the ...

I received a complaint about Saturday's 'bonus' strip- shown above- and yeah, it might be just a touch to risque` to leave in the archives.
It'll be taken out of the system in the morning when the comic updates- strip 2452 will lead directly to 2453. But, it's still kind of artsy strip that ...

Several loyal readers pointed out that, as nice as Cara looked in the previous image, she'd been shown canonically in the strip as a bit chunkier- and besides, being a polar bear, being supermodel-thin probably isn't a good idea. :)
