thanks guys!

Busted! Yep, it's a part of the face that I'm particularly partial to. If you read up on it, it's a very interesting little dent--can indicate infertility and other health issues but I think this is my favorite thing about it...

In Jewish mythology, an angel strikes a newborn on the upper lip right before birth to create the philtrum, so he forgets all he saw and knew as a soul.

When I drew this face I kept asking myself "Is this a compassionate face or the face of a corrupt man?" I'm thinkin' the corrupt side won out. Honestly, I thought the thing people would notice first would be that awesome comb-over. '-)

I did try to go to rehab, but I failed.

Well awesomeness..congrats! :)

It;s not about the style. It;s about how well the style is drawn. And so far I really like this :) Excellent hair.

its not sad, very few people have original ideas anyway. i've never seen/read that book so glad you drew it

very well done, neat.yeah, most ideas get repeated, stolen, or just people come up with the same ones at the same time(Happens a lot.)

I found out, original ideas , scripts, ect,. books plot, fashions, get stolen all the time by people who are more powerful, and bigger. Even Laurel Burch, the designer, lost her whole business to her partner, had to go out on her own again. happens constantly. I knew people who lost their writing, even jokes, to others who got em published.

as for coming up with "originals, " I no longer try to come up with originals, i've seen stuff stolen too much, there's no way to protect them. I know how to copy something that is copyrighted, so it's legal and you can't be sued. Huge businesses can sue small timers, and win, cause they're big. and if big companies steal your copywritten stuff, good luck suing em.

I've even had ideas stolen by newspaper columnists, cause they got ahold of it, and they never even asked; i really did not care, ha ha!! but at least they could have asked me. ha, ha!!! look at it as a form of flattery. I saw a very ancient movie, one time, and realized Spielberg had stolen all of it, for a much newer movie, it was exactly the same.--or he bought the author's rights.I was just surprised cause he's so inventive on his own. you all say who you got it from, that's honest. and polite. great drawing!!!

elly draws great

Outstanding.

Thanks, Ziggy

I believe the world, it spins for you.

I was wondering about those delicate colors, so I've watched the animation, and it looks like you were gentle with the canvas, and careful with your darker tones. It's really nice.. :)
