Request : Pears

· 6 messages · 9 Nov 1994 - 13 Nov 1994
I was wondering if somebody had any pictures of pears, you know that
kind of fruit that is very juicy, wide at the bottom, smaller at the top.
I have made something myself, but it's very poor. It's my first attempt
at making a assci so don't flame me about the amateure way of drawing a
pear. Instead send me a better one.
I specially would like a pear in sig-size, I mean about 5 or 6 lines high
Here is my attempt at a pear

No I think you're wrong. It's an overhead view of a hippo.
I've tried to make it a bit clearer. I assume "e" is for "eye"
