Zoey Powers Poll
Added 2024-12-18 00:44:00 +0000 UTCHey Y'all!
I'm currently working on bringing the new Zoey Powers into the world, but I'm curious to hear from you concerning her design. Zoey, for the most part, was always a brunette, but I was thinking of making her a blonde this time around. What do you y'all think? Should her Base look be Blonde or Brunette?
Oh, and here's a pinup of Thea I made for her to thank her for letting me make Tiny Trouble:

How about a little red? :)

2024-12-21 04:08:16 +0000 UTCIn the end I chose a color that was closest to her original color, which is brown with a little red :)

2024-12-18 18:06:36 +0000 UTC(A) Awesome picture. Amazing outfit, but I couldn't tell it was supposed be Thea, because of ... er ... the distracting ... er ...cloud? (B) I'm naturally blonde with blue eyes, so I always identify more easily with characters who are blonde, with blue eyes (mainly because eyes and hair are big things for me), but I can find all colours of hair, skin, race, etc., attractive (and usually have in real life). Other features, like skin colour, sex, age, size, sexuality, athleticism, etc., don't affect me, personally as much. I guess it comes down to whether you want readers to be attracted to the character or see themselves as the character. I don't tend to see myself as characters who are not blonde as easily, so it becomes a second/third person perspective on the story, rather than a first person perspective, which usually doesn't make too much of a difference for me if the story, scenes, and artwork are good. I can transpose in my head. If other people feel the same way I do, natural blondes are a small minority of the human population (~2%), so they are generally over-represented in media, especially western media. Red hair is even more rare (between 1-2%). Most people have black hair and brown eyes, however, many people and cultures historically have found blonde (or red) hair more attractive, probably because of its relative rarity, novelty or exoticness, and many people have historically dyed their hair blonde (or red) for this reason, e.g., the widespread practice of bleaching all hair colours blonder in Scandinavian cultures for centuries and documented historical accounts of this being seen as more attractive by several other cultures throughout time. If you want more people to see themselves as the character, and doing things that the character does, then probably stay with brunette or darker hair and brown eyes. If you want the character to be a bit more of a stereotypical exotic/unattainable character that people see as someone 'else' unusual, 'other' than themselves, who the reader does things 'with', not 'as', blonde (or red, blue, pink, green, ...) might serve the story better. Is Zoey the subject or the object in the story/scene? If you just want a change from what you did before, maybe go with blonde or red or, as someone else suggested, maybe change colours, like a chameleon, based on choice, necessity, utility, inconvenience, mimicry, emotional state (like auras), stress/anger levels or a mysterious random plot detail that gets explained later, but confuses and frustrates the character now. "Why is my hair blue today? I have a job interview with a Trump supporter." This could make the character change visual prominence in the scene, depending on the colour palette you are using, to make them stand out more, clash, or fade into the background relative to other features of the scene.

2024-12-18 06:59:36 +0000 UTCI think brunettes are underrepresented. Blondes seem to be to norm for bimbos/sluts (not suggesting Zoey is one…but there are many), and your trademark has long been sexy redheads (which, to be fair, are my favorites). I think you should keep her..both for history, and to give the dark haired ladies some love.

2024-12-18 03:34:23 +0000 UTCWill you be working on this with only Thea or will Tom Reynolds also help with the new Zoey?

2024-12-18 02:31:28 +0000 UTCCould be fun if maybe there's a storyline that causes her personality and/or powers to go haywire based off her hair color.
