Art Jam - Jessica Rabbit

My contribution to 's Jessica Rabbit art jam: [link]
(jam session lasts until August 22!)

Jessica was apparently one of the first cartoon characters I drew in enough recognizable "detail". First such drawing I have a memory of is He-Man, but there's hard evidence of Jessica Rabbit: [link]

Anyway, so I found this the other day:
It's (one of) devianart's premiere art jam directories, and that's how I got wind of the Jessica Rabbit jam.

Nostalgia forbid me to pass it up. But I forbid myself from just illustrating Jessica in the conventional red, sequined dress. So I came up with the idea of, "What kind of cross-promotional/endorsement posters might Jessica have appeared in during wartime 1940s?" Actually, my initial thought was to put her on a poster for a sweeping epic film produced by R.K. Maroon, but the propaganda idea cropped up right before I started.

Also, I used Illustrator to trace me initial sketch of her. First time using Illustrator of my own volition in... like, ever. Well, a very long time, at least. But I wanted to use the jam as an excuse to exercise, and I thought the vector brush strokes could really help me get the look I wanted.

Anyway, I've rambled on enough. It's Jessica Rabbit!
