Because she is the coolest lady villain EVER. My brother and I were obsessed with the game 'Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego?', and I think I can accurately blame it for my fascination with history.

Also, fedora, brunette, red trench coat (though mine is more a peacoat...), thief...she's so seriously cool.

And I'm REALLY proud of the shading here! It's so bloody fantastic! I've heard before that using purple as shadows for red works well but I could never get it to look right before! :happybounce:

Oh I soooo miss Carmen Sandiego. The old cartoon (the cool one with the virtual-head dude that looked almost exactly liked Egon from Ghostbusters, not the crummy one that mixed live action and cartoons) was awesome, and the 'Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego' game (for PC) kept me distracted for hours. ^^; She's the direct inspiration for one of my semi-villainous characters named Trident. Up until Carmen came along I'd never seen a female villain that was anything other than a sexist stereotype; she changed the rules for me, and I love all the more for it. ^^
