Betty Boop

Commonly known as one of the most popular 'cartoon sex symbols', Betty Boop was completely different from other female cartoons in it's time. She was the first and only female character drawn to resemble a fully defined woman's form, hence one of the reasons she rose to popularity as a sex symbol.

At first I thought it would be much simpler drawing her as compared to Scooby in previous sketches. Phew, I was wrong. The curves of her body were quite hard to capture, but obviously as it was her trademark, I had to make sure she didn't look ... well, fat.


Sketch No.3: Betty Boop with Bimbo

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Bimbo (the dog on the right-hand side) is actually Betty's boyfriend. In fact, Betty was actually a dog character, but over the years, she was eventually transformed into a woman. However, Bimbo, her boyfriend, still remained 'dog-like' in the later installments.
