In Greece I saw this sceen,
A huge red wasp eating a normal yellow black wasp.
The scale of the two insects is about right.
How do you like the picture?

The problem with the dotty style is that the contrast between main lines and faint details vanishes quickly. It frustrates me a lot when I see my own drawings on a different screen with a different font. In my emacs every dot had made the picture look much better and I could see a million details. With the other font I just wonder why I put als those strange spotty things all over the picture. :( Andreas . .--. _ .' ) + ' . . .' `-' ( _ .
