Dita! the sniper

This was the funnest character to work on out of the four here at the bottom. I based his design of a desk lamp. The instructor wanted us to make a "gadget guy" and to me a mechanical-armed desk lamp is nerdy,mechanical and analytical, so I based his frame on a desk lamp. I originally had kids picture viewer as his night vision goggles but once again my instructor didn't know that people back then had picture viewers that looked like archaic night vision goggles if placed over a tanker cap. So I didn't fight it and just went along with fold down lenses. I know there were no night vision goggles back then, but once again this is a cartoon and I am trying to push the limits.
I still like the idea of a "nerdy sniper" Persis calculations plus a deadly weapon make for a potent mix.
