Description While he still might not be fat enough, I like how he turned out. And my family has informed me that that is probably the cutest opossum there will ever be. Those things are dirty ugly IRL.

Anywho, yes, this is Goku, per Dragon Ball era. I had a lot of fun drawing him upside down. I also like how the tree turned out. Granted, the pic is a bit sparse as far as detail work goes, but I still like it. It's also interesting to note that this is the first pic I've competed where it was sketched traditionally, inked digitally, and then colored traditionally. A bit of hassle? Nah. I liked the sketch marks on the original too much to erase them. lol.

I'm so tired my eyes are crossing... And yet, I have the strange desire to try to level my MapleStory character... Ahhhhh, the dilemma.....

Media:
Pencil
Eraser
PSE 3.0
Copic and Prisma markers

P.S.
Loved the new episodes of Monk and Psych. I'm so glad those shows are back.

P.P.S.
Watermark will be removed and higher res pic put up once trade has been completed.

P.P.P.S.
Trade complete, watermark removed. Enjoy! (I'm starting to feel like Gandalf with all these postscripts....)

Ah yeah... you sent me a link to what journals are? That didn't make any sense.

But she won't know who I am... and... I don't know... fine. I will tell her she's amazing. When I eventually get to her manga thing...

M'kay, so now what you do is you go to that marvelous thread of Bella's and click on her signature. Since I apparently didn't have the right one... Then you have to navigate within the journal.

I want to know this:

Did you turn it upside down to draw goku, or did you just draw him upside down to start with?

lol. I turned the page whichever way I needed it. lol. Rough sketch was done with the page right-side up, the majority of the facial structures were done page upside-down, and then I turned the page as necessary. Another reason why I like traditional media so much: it's very easy to change the angle of the page.

Ohmygosh... Yes, those things are EVIL. I found one once when taking out the garbage at work. It was in the trash can. lol. I don't think Goku would have too much of a problem with it, though. lol.

Thank you!

xD I know so ebil!
I found one in a trashcan before when I was 7. My grandfather was playing a trick on me and told me to go look inside the trash can. It was huge D: After I ran in the house my granpa told me he would show me how to skin and cook it xDD Took me a while to figure out he was joking.

lol, yeah Goku never has any real problems with anything xDD he's so carefree.

LOL! OOOOOH! Speaking of cooking: So one day we were going to have lunch with a couple of missionaries from our church. Mom asked them what they wanted to have for the meal. Neither were from the Southern states, and she wanted them to have more of an option than lasagna or some other casserole. One of them asked for opossum. I've lived down here all my life and don't even being to claim that I've had all the dishes specific to the south (like squirrel), but I hadn't heard of anyone seriously eating opossum. We looked it up, and sure enough, folks have tried it before. They said it tastes like crap, though, and is really tough. We ended up making a possum out of red velvet cake. We had little Xs for it's eyes with it's tongue sticking out and were going to try to put tire tracks on it, but that was a bit more hassel than required. lol. So that missionary had one of the best tasting possums ever.

It was pretty funny to watch their faces as we pulled the cake (covered) out of the fridge. lol. My mom apparently got the idea from Steel Magnolias.

They were LDS.

Yup. Even sawed off the "Lamanite" leader's head with a table knife and stuck it to a fork with gum... All of our group got little toy soldiers as commemoration. lol. That was an awesome year. Our guys served the gals breakfast on Friday morning, complete with "My Little Pony" "placemats" (rectangles cut out of gift wrap) and one of them singing to us while we ate. (He was pretty good, too.)

Loud counselors are so much fun.

No idea.... I've heard a couple of folks say that they have had them, but I'm with you. No clue how to eat them. Not sure I'd want to even if I did. lol.
