Artist's Comments

A boy like me is told he is both nine and ninety and
A boy like me should shut those books join the army
But a boy like me would never be seen fighting for peace
I want total chaos and a holiday home in the east
A boy like me should know much better
Than to raise his flag in stormy weather
But I just cant get enough electric shocks
I want to buy a lighthouse and
Ride a giraffe on the rocks, hey!
I dont give up
I want two dogs two cats a big kitchen and a welcome mat
I want all this and all shall have
I dont give up
A boy like me don't ever
Give up his dream
No

And he's pretty much amazingly hot.
And You did an AMAZING job drawing it.

Just wondering...if these pieces are so big, how do you get a perfect scan like this? What do you use?


BTW...awesome picture quality as usual; love the skills in shading you possess!

It isn't a scan. I have to photograph them, then I pull them onto the computer. :)
