My friend Bianca offered to do a couple of trades with me as part of her advent calendar of TF art project.

Today's prompt was "Retro," and lemme tell you I struggled to come up with an idea for this that really resonated with me. Then I figured out what I wanted to do, and I struggled with making it too.

I don't remember the last time I've had to dig so deep to research the parts I needed for this piece, and I gotta give props to my friend Rulare who helped find an archive of VCL that included the exact page I needed to complete it. Those of you who got this reference are the real ones, lemme tell ya.

If you don't know what a VCL is; in a phrase, it was quite literally the oldest furry art gallery to ever get shut down. It kinda sucks how hard it is to browse its archives nowadays, but consider this my part in spreading a tiny bit of awareness about our community's history. With soft-core smut, of course.

I included the full size version of the drawing too, for your enjoyment, and you can see her half of the trade here.
