Description
Bettie was Dave’s early muse and later friend , they had a wonderful bond in real life.

Never thought I’d be able to have a beautiful bikini Bettie figure by Dave Stevens! And she’s not a small figure either, almost 17 inches from head to toe.

Dave’s pencils are so tight, he even drew a faint leopard print design. This is likely the final prelim to the painted Bettie, Dark Horse released as a Dress Up magnet set (see additional pics)

That's a nice prelim!  I have a few of the Bettie magnet prelims in my CAF!

Ray, They are great, the color one is so close to the final version!  You were fortunate to meet Dave and purchase directly from him!  And it's interesting to see that he was working on this project since atleast 1998 (as your other prelim suggests)

Beautiful art! I owned this a couple years ago and it is, indeed, a very tight, very detailed preliminary drawing. Congrats on getting it!

Quite lovely with the curves and shading to bring emphasis to their shape.  The hand and fingers also speak to the elegance of the line.

I see Dave was going through my wardrobe again for magnet design ideas.

I would say it's a toned figure.  And awesome at that...
