This is part of my Neutral Milk Hotel folder, which is way too large, and I probably need a new art muse. The words are from the song "King of Carrot Flowers pt2/3". So, you know... I have this myth in my mind that I can doodle cool things.

Don't ask why there's a garbage can. ^_^

8) Dude. This. Is. Pure... AWESOMENESS! 'nuf said. Lol, looks like he's sinking more than floating. Trashcan? Ha ha.

Hilarious. Long live the funky artistic creations of YWSians!

P.S. love the boxers, er, wait... swim trunks? maybe?
Our happiness here is all vain glory,
This false world is but transitory,
The flesh is weak, the Fiend is slee
Timor mortis conturbat me.

Haha this is really awesome, Clo. It's really fun to look at. The dude is missing nipples though. That's what I first noticed.

I can't give any other advice though. It's way awesome.

Just write -- the rest of life will follow.

Would love help on this.

this is cool :)i only have a couple things going on inside my head about it:

1) his upperbodiness is bare. i think that it shouldn't be. i don't mean put a shirt on him or anything, but there should be manly something or otherness there. i like to call them man boobs. but don't make them saggy. *shutters in disgust*

2) his left hand looks funny. instead of two of his fingers being folded over i think his hand should be completely out and flat.

3) the ear that we can see is way too low.

4) one shoulder is longer than the other. i don't know if it supposed to be like that, but it just looks funny to me.

5) his left leg looks like it is about to turn funny. the line at the end of the page for his left leg goes up at a weird angle for a leg.

those are all the things that i saw for this. i think that you are really creative with your work and i love it :) i really only see the little things in your pictures and those are easy to fix :)
i hope this helps :)

happy drawing :)
omg lol thx HD!
