brendalaI hope I don't get in trouble for this... ^_^;
Since Asian-Velma is now canon (though only in the two made-for-TV live action movies) and that worked out REALLY well, I thought it would be interesting to try "race-bending" the other characters:
I opted to try an all-Black cast first.
I wanted to make them recognizable. However, I also wanted to avoid making them look like palette swaps of the originals. So I changed up the clothes and hair a bit.
I had Aisha Tyler in mind when I drew Daphne. And I wanted Fred to look like a slightly less dorky Carlton Banks.
In retrospect, Shaggy's hair probably should have been messier. But, oh well. XD
I might do more of these if the mood strikes me.
