The Adventures of Jessica Truth
 


"Miss Jessica Truth"

In December of 2006 I came across Joe Griffin’s cartoon series about Miss Jessica Truth, which revolves around the adventures of a young English teacher and her students. Miss Truth’s biggest problem is that she can’t seem to keep her clothes on, and just about every mishap in her life winds up with her completely nude. Her students are more than happy to help things along and get her naked, and more than happy to eye her voluptuous body.

Jessica's main nemesis is one of her students, a precocious girl call DaNeesha. DaNeesha's purpose in life is to get her teacher into as many embarrassing situations as possible. The young teenager portrayed in the pictures is my rendition of DaNeesha, and yes, there are some occasions where DaNeesha gets to spank Jessica.

I highly recommend Joe’s cartoon strip, because he is a talented cartoonist and the artwork and humor are unique. His work can be seen at his website:

Joe’s series fascinated me to the point that I decided to try my hand at using Poser to create a couple of short stories inspired by his ideas. During the second week of January 2007 I took a break from working on images for my own fiction to do the Miss Jessica Truth renders seen on this page.

This is the first time I ever attempted a Poser interpretation of someone else’s character. I used the DAZ Stephanie Petite model to create my character for Jessica, trying to come as close as possible to the way Joe portrays her. Within the limitations of the facial features of the Sp3 model, I feel I came fairly close, although I would have liked to make the face a bit rounder and the lips a bit fuller. I was more satisfied with how the body came out.

Unlike the pictures from Joe's original series, which are full of people, the technical limitations of Poser kept me from putting more than two DAZ figures in any render that had background objects. For the three pictures with the crowd in the background I used a group of Poser default low-resolution figures and re-rendered the picture several times to add figures 20 at a time. The cops are Poser Don figures, which was why I was able to get more of them into my pictures.

There were other limitations as well, such as the lack of props and some of the hairstyles (such as dreadlocks) worn by Joe’s characters. Still, I very much enjoyed working with the model and the character, and in the future hope to do some more renders with her.

I wish to express my thanks to Joe Griffin for sharing his character Jessica Truth and granting me permission to use her in my own art. Once again, I highly recommend a visit to his Yahoo group.
