Phillip J Fry (v) (fixed)
Fry contemplates the meaning of his existence.
Actually this is from a frame of the fourth episode when he's trying to remember the time robots enslaved humanity (2:45) during his talk with the red haired woman at the bar.
He looks a little angier than I would have liked. I am pleased with his mouth, ear, nose, and eyebrow though. (I'm not even an ear-nose-and-throat doctor either) The subtle change of color doesn't stand out too much but you can still see it, making you look a little closer.
I avoided black outlines, straying away from the animator's style but I liked it better this way. This and the ship are the only ones that don't have outlines.
HOW-TO PARAGRAPH: I struggled for 15 minutes getting his hair and face lined up with each other. Of course, I was forgetting my own knowledge and I deleted all the points on the face shape at the top near the hairline and just went SCREW IT and made a big arc covering up the hairline with the face color. The only actual lining up is the eyebrow, which resides on the edge of the eyes and face. I darkened the color his skin is and made a really skinny hook shape. This is easier if you're zoomed into 1600%. Same technique with his ear and mouth. For the background color I didn't bother making a huge square, I just filled it in with the paint bucket. Don't worry that it's not a vector shape, it will scale exactly the same as if it was one.
