Studio Tour 10 – Lum/Aimee

I wanted to draw these two characters together for a while. Aimee Brightower is one of two protagonists in Galaxy High, who I drew back in 2015. Lum is the female lead of Urusei Yatsura, who I drew on commission in 2020. Both girls were in the 1 Club prior to this pic, but I wanted to pair them with each other rather than more popular characters like I do for that series. So, instead, I dusted off the Studio Tour series for the first time in a while. Urusei Yatsura and Galaxy High have an interesting history together. Urusei Yatsura was extremely popular in its day (and has a new series airing right now, though I haven’t watched it yet), and Shinsha was tasked with creating a similar series for the western market, since importing anime was rare back then. They created Galaxy High, and inverted the “alien girl in human school” premise to “human boy and girl go to alien school”. They also traced some animation from UY for GH, including the last shot of the opening credits where Aimee looks a lot more like Lum than usual.

December ’15 WWOTM – Wendy Garbo

The WWOEC Woman of the Month for December 2015 is Wendy Garbo from Galaxy High. I’d never watched the show before, but I gave it a quick glance-through for this pic. It seems pretty fun, and there are some cute characters I wouldn’t mind drawing. However, it’s hard to imagine me having the time to drawing more Galaxy High stuff, even if Booey Bubblehead is really cute.

The line in this pic is a reference to something Wendy said to Aimee Brightower (the girl between her legs) in the first episode. She bragged about keeping an excellent record of the school’s boys, but I imagine she also keeps track of the best lesbos in the class as well.
