A bit too dark, but a great drawing!

Perhaps its your monitor? or maybe mine is to bright, but it looks fine here

The light looks perfect on this end. I'm sure you monitor is just fine too. GL!

Fantastic job here, and thanks for taking so much time with your SBS. Very clean and helpful naration. And I LOVE this little guys background story...VERY creative...GL.......JB

hang around, I would like to see more of your work

Oh don't worry I plan to

Matisse would go nuts LOL.. great job

EDIT: for clarification of gouache, if any of you have ever tried to work with it.. it's like having and enema with hot sauce... (though the results are magical)

(I had to stop using it after my first attempt working with it (I used so much of it I would have used up all the paint in one day and my art professor would have to double my tuition)

check out Matisse's blue nudes.. they will blow your mind

doesn't look like a drawing!!! Off Theme, but it is a good piece.

It's a painting... I had to draw it before painting. To be honest, I still don't know whether paintings are allowed in this contest, I hope that the contest moderator clarifies it to us...

nice one

lchappell would jizz in his pants if he saw this. XD

before i vote i know this was yours, good job buddy and good luck

I think this is amazing, love your work!!! Keep painting I want to see more of your stuff!!

nice theme..good job

Well now that we know colors are allowed, I give high marks for this...the painting is obviously just painting and no other effects used like some, LOVE IT!!

Fantastic
