[Wiro]

AHAHAAHA!!! What's up with all you crazy cartoonists creeping out of the woodwork all of a sudden? :D
Awesome sketches! I really hope you'll be able to catch that into 3D as well. I bet that guy trained for months, hahaha! And his hair looks like a big question mark, making him look extra clueless
:thumbsup:

Apologies(mebamonster,Benno,BrainFaucet,Clanger,paconavarro)

BUT I will be back working on this again from tuesday. yay!

And given that the deadline Isn't untill october the whatever, like any good sports person worth their trainers, Im going to pace myself, and make the experience worth while...

Anyhoo thanks all for the interest and taking the time!

Hey Drongo............. I loved your Beast of Burden creation. One of the best .................And this one looks to be just as promising. I know it will be top notch coming from you. I am looking forward to seeing it progress.

Downhill racing in a bath full of ice while 99% naked with the bath full of lobsters and crabs??? ............With electric gizmos attached to your poor ol' character............?

We shall see, see you soon...........:beer: :)
