Thanks for telling us what it is! Just one question: is the head
on the left?

From the same pocket where I keep my string and gum and jackknife, 
I pull out these two beauties for your approval:

Yes and those are legs on the second line. 

Both drawings are great. The drawing by Tua Xiong is close to what 
I want but not quite small enough. I'll keep working on mine 
though; and in the meantime will close with the same old:

How about these, they're abit...err...strange (room for improvement!),
but they are reasonably faithful to the original (if that's a good
thing!!)

Oh my! What would happen if you were unfaithful to the original?! 
Great work though.
