Wendy’s turn to be made over into the… opposite archetype (I consider ‘geek’ and ‘punk’ to be opposites in the archetype quartet)!

In case any of you have been wanting to see Wendy Wyler with both her eyes exposed, here you go! Figured since she’s supposed to look nerdy here, it’d be fitting to give her barrettes, which meant I had to draw both her eyes, since… well, that’s kind of how barrettes work. Also, that sweater and those braces (for the sake of this artwork, they’re fake… but I might make an AU version where she is the geek of the girls, and the braces are real) look adorable on Wendy. And she looks adorable as a nerd. That sweater is now a canonical part of her wardrobe.
Onto the art itself!
I was originally gonna have Wendy showing her natural blonde hair color in this piece, but since it’s been a while since I drew her and I thought she’d look unrecognizable, I decided to have her depicted with her more recognizable, black-and-fuschia-dyed hair instead. The background was traced from the Punk Gilda piece, but given improved textures and slightly resized, to a perspective more fitting for Wendy (who is an inch shorter than Gilda). The door asset, however, is the same as from the aforementioned piece. This is supposed to be… well, Wendy’s sister’s house. The house in Hatcherwood where she goes on the nights she practices with her band, to get away from her father.
Also, yes, Wendy has freckles on her nose now, as well as on her cheeks. It was something I decided on in the gap between artworks featuring her; I gave her those additional freckles so that she looks more like an 11-year-old (which she is), and less like a tiny teenager.
Anyhoo, that’s all for this one. One more Grunvale girl to draw as the opposite archetype, and I think you know who it is. And then there’ll be the other eight works to draw for this series.
