Penelope Pitstop

**bcire68** · 10 July 2010, 08:23 AM

As requested...The beautiful Ms. Peneolpe Pitstop who could always find a willing young gentleman to help out when she was in peril (or when her car broke down in one of the wacky races).

These are flowing quite quickly now. The first one that I did took me probably 4 hours to complete. This one took probably less than 2 hours. These are rough guesses as I wasn't really timing myself but I can definately notice a difference in how long they take.

I hope you like her.

That looks really good. There is another Hanna Barbara character you've missed One of my all time favourites was Scooby Doo.

Hi Frances,

I've been planning on doing Scooby Doo too, along with a few others. I will get around to them eventually. I'm going to try to get a few more out this weekend. I'll have to see how it goes. I just got hit with this weekend's Honey-Do list. (You know, Honey do this, Honey do that...) So that might cut into my play time.

from wiki:

"According to Iwao Takamoto, Penelope was an afterthought in the development of Wacky Races. Joseph Barbera requested that a woman be added among the racers, so Takamoto and Jerry Eisenberg designed Penelope and her car in about two hours."
