Description
Here it is! My character Ruby the Vixen drawn by Archie Comics' Tracey Yardley 
and Matt Herms 
When I first got into the Archie Sonic comics, the first thing that drew my attention was Tracey's style as it was very close to the official Sonic art but still had the flexibility you see in cartoons that allow for amazing facial and body expressions, which Tracey was a master with. That combined with Ian Flynn's writing made me enjoy a comic which didn't catch my interest previously and I'm glad I started following it as it opened my imagination with what I can do with my own characters.
So as you can imagine when Tracey Yardley announced he was doing art commissions I jumped at the chance to have my 4 main characters drawn by my favourite artist. I decided to go for all 4 at once since it would be unlikely I would get another chance if I only asked for one, even though it wouldn't be cheap. It was a long wait though due to Tracey being a very busy artist with his job plus the 50+ commissions he accepted, but I was patient and only sent him reminder e-mails once every few months just to check what was happening, and he in turn was appreciative for my patience and politeness and understanding. It was all worth it though as I got 4 awesome linearts of my characters with all the details either perfect or improved in some way. Initially I was planning to colour them myself but then I discovered another Archie Comics artist on DA who is known for colouring the comic cover art and was offering Colourist Commissions. The idea to have him colour the Tracey pics was too perfect to ignore and he happily accepted.
The result is gorgeous, I always liked how Tracey draws female characters and he really made Ruby look cool with her stun pistol while also redesigning the holster to better suit the weapon. Not to mention her expression is just perfect for an action shot.
This and the other 4 are the best thing to happen to my characters, and can only be beaten if they cameoed in the comics themselves or even the games (both being impossible
) so I'm going to print these out and frame them on my wall.
