#8 - Spy Gal by Elora Heasley
Brock on May 14, 2008
Today's fan art is near and dear to my heart. This was drawn by my daughter Elora. I had no idea she was going to do this, so I was delighted to find this on my desk one day when I got home.
She did this drawing a year ago when she was just 4-years-old. I love how little kids always insert themselves into any drawing they do.
Here's a picture of Elora taken just a few months ago. She's 5 now.
Now, try to imagine that face just a couple of years younger and with a different hair style and you have Dictator Tot. Yep, I based Dictator Tot on my own daughter. There's a conversation DT has early on in Chapter 4 in this strip that has some lines taken verbatim from some of the things Elora has said to me.
She's a fantastic little girl.

Don't forget that if you'd like to contribute to the fan art you can PQ me with a link or send it to heasley@th3rdworld.com! (Just be sure and PQ me to let me know it's there as I don't really check that email all that often.)
Contributing Drunk Duckers get their piece put at the top of the queue, in the order I receive them!

Artistic ability runs in the family I see. And she's not shy of little shameless self-promotion either! Cute kid!

Fenn - You guess correctly, my friend. Been wanting to use that name ever since I first saw the movie. I also gave one of the SuperFogeys "Elora" as a first name. It's at the end of Chapter 3 that I call it out.
