So during this picture, I discovered that there is a limit to how cheap a pen you can use for serious inking. The limit is a Papermate Metal Roller Micro.

THE PEN SMEARED. THE FUCKING PEN SMEARED LIKE GRAPHITE ONLY WORSE BECAUSE I COULD NOT ERASE IT.

So I had to computer clean it. With a touch pad. D<


Okay, I redesigned Dib and Zim for the fact that everything I think about them fandom-wise is like 6 years in the future. Dib's boots are pretty badass, yes? Also I love his shirt. XD Zim hates it of course. Zim's wig is explained [link] <-- there. I figure the clothes happened whenever he finally figured out, somehow, that his kind of stuck out. Also he outgrew his uniforms.

WHICH. I plead for here:
Earth, canonically, is presented as having a pretty intense sun. Which means that it is both warmer, and more radiation-ridden, than Irk. May or may not have lower gravity. Radiation causes damage, lower gravity causes skeletal breakdown (see: astronauts, osteoporosis, etc); Zim's pak goes into regeneration mode. Only, being Zim's pak, it fucks it up. And adds bone structure, causing (probably fairly painful) slow growth, until it figures out what it was doing and starts compensating correctly. It probably takes it like four or five years, though. And I don't think Zim would get more than 6-8 inches (8 shown here, I think).

Which seems like a decent bit when compared to his old height, but ultimately, compared to Dib.... it... really doesn't do all that much. Sorry, Zim.

So yeah. I had too much fun. ^^
