Alexis 'Lex' Murphy
This is a quick job (so no real shading) of Alexis 'Lex' Murphy from the Novel 'Jurassic Park' by Michael Crichton. I'm not Japanese or American, so forgive any mistakes I've made on the baseball side (Like the Darryl Strawberry Special glove not quite being right or something).
This is more my take on the character because Michael Crichton isn't a writer who puts too much detail in things which are completely unimportant, so we don't have full descriptions of what she was wearing on that weekend in 1989. With what's stated (like her glove, Ball, New York Mets cap) and that she is 7-8 years old, very keen baseball player, quite active and outgoing, favours her father and quite impulsive, I've decided to give her a broken/missing tooth, the plaster on the nose (quite often cute). Her hair is blonde, I decided a more dirty blonde, has her her under her cap, so I decided to give her a bit of long hair but it's a pony tail which is going through her cap. For the outfit, like I said, nothing was stated in the novel about what she wore, so going with the baseball theme and being an active 8 year old in 1989, I kinda based it on an old Bananarama picture ^_^; though not fully. Blue vest like but not a baseball one, giving her arms free (there is abit where her arms are check for wounds with no comment about clothing on them), slightly but not very baggy, and jean/shorts which were common for active girls at the time.
Don't know if I'll do any more but I felt like doing this quickly and spend a tiny bit more time then I wanted to but really enjoyed it. I
