Been a while since I put together a good group shot. ^^
This was taken when the seniors of the Underwood College furry basketball team held a fundraising car wash this past spring.
All six of the kids declared for the draft, btw, and all are hoping to go pro in the FBA this year, so wish them luck. ^^
L-R: Silas, Xander, Jarrod, Big Sue, Bailey (the team captain), and Wescot.
Wescot created by

As for me, I'll be on the west coast doing 3 gigs in a row until Tuesday morning. Wish *me* luck as well.
EDIT: I has uploaded a version featuring Bailiey in the color I had intended him to be from the outset. He's got a tan now. ^^

This was taken of the group recently? Wow, they all look like young high schoolers having a good time in the summer sun. ^^
Great pic though! I love how you took a couple of the pics I sketched and incorporated their designs into your pic! They are definitely looking like a big happy family! I love the little look that Bailey is giving Wescot, haha!
Good luck to all of them in the draft this year, and good luck to you with your gigs! :)

This is a really adorable picture, and one I'm really happy to see. As you've seen with my commissions, I highly value pics that treat the characters of the FBA not just as basketball players, but as characters with lives off the court. This is really cool to see these kids as student athletes, before they take the plunge into professional basketball.
I like how the four on the left are all grinning wide and facing into each other. There's an invisible separation between them and Bailey and Wescot, which I think might be telling of their futures. Silas, Xander, Jarrod and Big Sue look more interested in having fun in their senior year of college than in thinking about their future. While Bailey is totally focused on what will come on draft night. Wescot looks more reserved as well-- but also more confident. Maybe he feels better about his chances than the others do-- or maybe he's actually been contacted by a team interested in him, and he hasn't shared that with the others.
Regardless, like all of your best pieces, C-Cat, there's a story going on just in how the characters are arranged. These six may be coming from the same school, from the same program, and play on the same team, but they're not on equal footing. And the way they're arranged tells that. Great, great piece!

Interesting, considering that Bailey, Wes, and also Jarrod, are regarded as the "stars" of that season's lineup.
So maybe that's reflected in how they're arranged.
I made Jarrod the one screwing around with the hose to show that even tho' he's one of the "stars", he's not a kid who's above it all. ^^
