Good Service
A few entries ago, I was talking about creating a figurehead for my company. The Mickey Mouse to my Disney, the Flo to my Geico... OK, maybe not Flo, but something everyone can recognize. I decided on a coffee serving robot/android--- a "Coffee Droid." Why not? As I mentioned before, she'll "merge the sexy and nurturing qualities of a female while incorporating the mythical, medicinal, and beneficial qualities of coffee".
So, I did a little sketch. Just playing around with the idea. My only concern is incorporating her into a logo. I'm talking serious simplification here, but concerning backgrounds and overall personality of a web site, she'll do just fine. Took a little risk with the maid get-up, but it looks better than a Barista, I think. After all, this company is going to provide a service---services, eventually. Maids trump Baristas any day of the week. They don't make you feel bad for not liking a band since it's inception. Maids don't hate everything after the year of 1978. Hell, I think all coffee shops should have french maids, really. We have Hooters, for crap's sake. Why not have french maids with passable accents...? Then again, I think I just lost my female readership.
That's what I get for rambling.
Anyway, this is the direction I'm going in. Thought I'd share it for those that are interested in the progress.

she'll have an accent? interesting..
@Hunt4Truth - I was speaking in general, replacing Starbucks Baristas with French Maids. Then again, you just gave me an idea. A voice recording for the site... Maybe a welcome screen with animated lip syncing for the droid. I'll need to brush up on it, seeing that it's been forever since I animated anything. I'll need to find a voice, too. Thanks.
Enjoy
nice work, again. but her face looks a bit creepy to me. lol
@buddy71 - I'm sure it's the lack of pupils. That's something I'll be adding in later on when I digitally color it.
Thanks for stopping by.
