Motu Redesign challenge #85 - The New Adventures of TEELA!
A landmark number once more. And every landmark number in the challenge deserves a special character. : )
Many are aware that there was a New Adventures of He-man toyline and animated series in the early 90's,
but considerably fewer people know about Teela's one and only appearance in said series.
One of my personal favourites of the whole NA show, Teela shows up in the episode "Once Upon a Time", sent by
The Sorceress to aid He-man mentally and physically in his battle against Skeletor, because of the tremendous bout with doubt and home-sickness that
he is going trough at the time.
Definitely one of the best episodes of the show, it goes into depth exploring the feelings that He-man has,
while stranded millions of years into the future.
Although Teela's personality was more or less the same, her appearance was quite different from
the original classic depiction, however!
Sporting more of a purple and pink outfit, as well as having died her hair blonde, Teela had an all-new look.
Some could say it harkened back slightly to the first mini-comics, with the blonde and more lose hair.

The rules are as EVER:
All people who choose to participate will have two weeks to come up with a redesign for this
character. You can use any medium you wish. You can sketch, paint, make a 3-D model,
make a sprite, make a custom action figure, whatever you want. Its entirely up to you!
As well, you don't have to force yourself to make your design conform to the new OR OLD cartoon &
comic book's style. Be as drastic in your redesign as you see fit. Whatever makes you happy.
If you can't think of a new design, or just hate the idea of working on this character,
you do not have to feel obligated to participate in this particular challenge.
You will still be free to participate in any future challenges you wish.
