For all the ladies i've drawn, i have only done a couple of bugs -- one of which was in a letter to my friend B. a couple of years ago (see below). The other was a souped-up version i had spotted in California.
This is a quick sketch done with a Sharpie marker on a piece of cardboard (which was a little too big to scan well, hence the poor quality) in preparation for the 1974 Superbeetle i intend to draw today. There just aren't enough bugs here.

Glad to see "you're working out all the bugs." Sorry...I couldn't help it.

This is exciting! My father is a trained VW repairman, and these are his favorites. He has had an office job for years now, but still has a variety of Bugs sitting in the back driveway/garage. He loves them.
Looking forward to the results!

LOVE them, France, and your souped-up one, too! I think the wildest bug I ever saw was right here in my little Midwestern town--half bug, half MOTORCYCLE. I wish I had a picture of that!
