I probably would’ve done something with Fry and Leela before now if I wasn’t always worrying about how Groening’s characters look in my style. I’m sticking here with an approach I tried in Marge’s Character Ask, which I think is a nice middle ground between drawing them completely different from how I draw everyone else, and making them not look like themselves. Hopefully people will enjoy this one, ’cause I am fond of these characters and wouldn’t mind revisiting them more often.
I had this idea of Fry trying to do something cute when Leela arrived in the Studio, but I figured it’d fall flat on his face. A simple dumb prank seemed fitting, though clearly they’ve moved past that by now.
