    Default February Challenge: How to Catch a Cartographer

    This is just a little fun entry, since I don't anticipate having the time to put in a proper entry this month. Apologies to Ascension and Ravells (your avatars are really easy to draw! ). Unless I get taken by a fit of ambition, this is the final version.

    I love the poke with sticks part. This is great, man.
    If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.

    I love the color scheme. Were you by chance watching Mythbusters when you drew that? It looks like their style

    Thanks guys, I thought of it as I was falling asleep last night. I just based it off what I remembered of that sketch from mallrats. So long ago, it probably doesn't look anything like it

    How to draw better than Djekspek!? I have to get some of that!..... Oh my god, a box! I love it, simple but brilliant.

    People come and people go. I walk amongst them, I see their faces; but none see mine. I pass them in the streets but nary a glance is spared my way, for what interest would they have in a Wanderer? Not of this world... Forever Alone... Forever Wandering... LoneWandererD...
