Actually, I drew the original pencils, and Des inked them in a
style similar to how the girls will be presented in the animation
stuff. Think "Batman Adventures" meets "Skunkworks" (but not _that_
way!) To keep things flowing smoothly, and in order to retain the
animated feel, the colors used are bright and bold. The scans aren't
that great, but there are more than 2 colors used per object! (some
have 5 or 6 colors, at least).
Des inked the pictures with her usual pens, and they were colored
with Prismacolor markers and pencils, same as usual...
