Worry not, for it does not interrupt the flow of sex.

I don't even have words to describe how awesome that is! He is a personal hero of mine too.  :)

I was going for something with Dropship-levels of detail. Thanks.

Yeah, when doing these time-consuming pieces, the shading is where most of it comes from.

I'm not drawing completely from eye, though. I draw guidelines across the photograph and the paper I'm drawing on. Really helps keep things in proportion.

I can proudly say I had the honour of meeting him once.

Have you read his book?

I'd love to meet him, lucky!

No, I'm not much a reader though I'm very capable, but I have read a book related to a few of his experiences. Shattered by Eric Walters, it covers homelessness and the Rawanda Genocide. Though not much a reader it's been on my mind to purchase and read both his books "Shake Hands with the Devil" and "They Fight Like Soldiers, They Die Like Children".

I did a project on him once and it was really awesome to see him help with the flag at the 2010 Winter Olympics (on T.V of course).

Hey, I did a project on him too! That's why I got to meet him. Signed my copy of Shake Hands With the Devil. I highly recommend that one. It's not easy reading, though. Few books are as crushing and sad as that one. I cried a few times while reading it.

Didn't know he had a second book. Should pick that up sometime.

Oh, wow, two new, amazing works! Both are great, in their own ways.
The first I like very much, it's simple and clear, like poster from movie. Even if he is a bit out of proportions, it doesn't disturb. The whole work is very stylish and I love colours you use. :)
The second - well, welcome back, pencil-man. :D It's amazing drawing, great shadowing, 3D mood, honestly everything is great there. In one word - perfection. :)

Thanks, key. Glad you like the Bond one. :)

Perfection? Can praise get any higher?

I can't say how much I appreciate this. Feels great when my work is seen and loved. :)

I didn't know either, it was published the October of last year.

There is a video on it.
