Following Joey (aka Brainchild) Millison's lead, I tried my own hand at making
a cartoon self-portrait. Tell me what you think (of course most won't be able
to compare it with my actual appearance, but concentrate on the stylistics ;)
/'~~~~~~~\|/
,/' ____ `\ I did the best I could with the glasses
| ,,__/ '| \ (I have the oval kind), but if anyone
,|_./___ ___ | | has any suggestions it would appreciated.
|-( o)-(o )`|,' Other than that, I don't have a pony tail
(| ~~~ ~~~ |) nor do I wear a hat. Maybe we can put
| `-' |' together a pictoral collection of regular
\ ,____, / artists on these newsgroups! ;)
