I drew it on paper with colored pencils so I couldn't use the exact same colors... I also messed up with part of the outfit. I forgot to put the purple at the top of the clothes. Also, the character sort of reminds me of Stargirl... ish. And it didn't end up half as well as I hoped it would because I got lazy. I might still fix things. ---------------------------------------------------------------- ABOUT: Name: Francesca a.k.a Chess (Sry about the cheesy stuff about her- oh also Cheesy could be a nickname) Likes: Being alone, love, music, nature, being bored/boring stuff, ummm egg salads Dislikes: Being embarrassed/crowded, hatred and angry people, tight spaces, cabbage Personality/about her life: Kind, sensitive, seeks adventure (when she's not being lazy), and emotional. She lives with her mom, dad, and younger brother (named Clayton). Her life seems too typical- the kind that could be on TV- a best friend (and another one that sometimes is rude), no pets, and she does one sport (track- if that even is a sport). Story (ish): She wakes up one day noticing how mediocre her life is and she wants to be different. When she goes out with her friend (Zoei- sounds like Zoe/Zoey) to the mall, she finds that outfit because it's different from what her classmates wear. It's a dress and tights, unlike the cropped tops, ripped jeans, sweatshirts, shorts/short skirts and other things. She also put her hair in cute buns instead of leaving it down. Chess was blonde, but she dyed her hair half purple so she would stand out. The purple and yellow weren't a common combination so she new it would make her look different, even if she seemed like a kid. Obviously people would notice her outfit- even if they didn't have positive feedback, but it satisfied her. Then of course... there is a boy. She gets a crush on him, blah, blah, blah. And then her birthday comes soon. Zoei finds a cheap ukulele that matches her new look and buys it for Chess. She thinks it's the perfect way to impress the boy when he notices her (if he ever will). So she learns some chords (the easy ones like C, G, Am, and F) and finally talks to the boy. Most people freeze up or act foolish in front of people, but Chess wasn't. She learned his name (IDK yet) and they actually got to know each other (she got lucky). After a while, they are very close and Chess thinks the guy likes her. But then he calls her his best friend. Zoei finds out and is still frustrated because Chess stopped hanging out with her. Plus, Zoei didn't like hanging out with the not-so-nice friend. Chess is upset too and guess what. She plays the song playing right now to the boy and he is failing English so he can't extract information properly. He thought the song was about how Zoei should think about how Chess is having fun without her and learn to accept it. Zoei changes her look, too and deals with the other friend. Her old look (t-shirts, regular jeans, and sneakers) changed to a more common look. Chess decides to leave the boy for a while and hangs out with her real best friend.
