Clarissa is so a-peeling

This was my first multi-panel Clarissa story. It's pretty wierd, but I had fun. Her outfit was inspired by the outfit worn by Uma Thurman in Kill Bill, which in turn was inspired Bruce Lee in Game of Death, I think.
 The action takes place on the planet of Plantano, a mostly tropical world. It is in a twin-star solar-system, which means it is tropical summer across the entire planet for nearly the whole year.

In the background you can see the dwellings of the local humanoid inhabitants, the Jewk-Sin. These are ovoid capsules built on poles high above the forest canopy. This is because of the other inhabitants of the planet: the Lushies. Lushies are dim-witted giant Yeti like creatures that eat the tropical fruit of the planet, but are just as likely to eat anything they confuse for tropical fruit. Which, considering their alarmingly tiny brains, is nearly everything. The Jewk-Sin only come out at night, when the Lushies sleep, to harvest the fruit for their own survival.
Close up detail of Clarissa. Yumma Yum Yumma!

  2. Haha, brilliant:) I love it. Well done for finding that abominable snowman vid, I've never seen it before, but there's a pretty good similarity. Lonney tunes and Quentin Tarantino, that would be an interesting mash-up:)
