LeeC:
has Faye lost weight?
Pilchard123:
Or a limb?
You have her card key, right?
Is it cold in here?:
She's now got a better way to meet her emotional needs than Pepperidge Farm cookies, so it's plausible character development. It's too bad Jeph has started getting irritated with questions about it.
SJCrew:
It is now that I remember why I like Dora. Such a beautifully flawed fictional character. <3

Jeph never seems to know how he wants to draw Faye. She started off thin with the old artstyle, and maintained that size up until the beginning phases of his current artstyle. Then, out of nowhere, she's thicker and I'm like "Wait, what? Since when?" Now it looks like the old Faye is making an appearance, though her upper body looks quite out of place with those thighs...
There's this one comic in particular where Faye is wearing a yellow shirt at the CoD that highlights exactly what I mean, and my mind keeps coming back to it when I realize how inconsistent Faye's size has been. I think this is back when Ms. Pritchard was around. I may just end up looking for it.
EDIT: It's not this one. Big arms and gigantic breasts. I think we can pretend it was this one though.
Old Faye had a cuter head too. And those arms. <3
pwhodges:
Jeph has said on various occasions (most frequently with reference to Dora, but also to Faye and others) that he has clear ideas of the characters in his head, but is still learning how to draw them; so he puts the variations down mainly to the evolution of his style and technique. In some cases, though, there was also a progressive change in the character (most notably early Hanners).
He also dismisses some comments about this as nit-picking that is beside the point.
