You really cracked me up good with the remarks of your Tough Critics and those references do help to relate better. Disregarding the critics, I think it's a good sketch, it's got Dan's signature all over, and it's specialty is speed and to capture all the movements =) <br />Nice shadow shot, and thank you for your compliments on my I-10 drawing. Yeah I work like an engineer too when it comes to art, I am trying hard to refrain myself from using the ruler or measuring tape >.< Which I didn't and I am pretty proud of myself.
