Hmm...Yum Yum kinda puts Jasmine to shame, doesn't she? Big rack, little waist. I do like the more realistic depictions, but the one with the slight belly, though realistic, looks a little...weird. It's far more realistic, but I think that once it was animated, it would be a little disconcerting looking. It's kind of a shame that he simplified her looks as much as he did, but it's still an interesting looking character. And while I haven't seen the film, it's interesting to see how sexualized the film is, as evidenced by the sketch of Yum Yum sitting on Nod's lap with her boobs in his face. That ain't an accident.

And think about it...her name is Yum Yum.

Also, unless you start finding a lot more modern sketches of the Cobbler in his more masculine form, I'm inclined to think that Williams decided that he didn't want the Cobbler to change by such a degree, as the audience might have stopped empathizing with him. He's interesting as an innocent looking, rounded character. But the skinny angular looking version is just...meh.

Looking forward to seeing all of this stuff. Should I expect to suddenly see my gmail account completely filled up a couple weeks from now, with about 4000 attachments?

Edit: And I think that sheet of Witch models has scarred me for life.
