A Little Side Trip of Great Fun...

My arm is improving...I can do most things for a period of time. I'm making progress with the physical therapist and I can almost bring my right arm up level with my shoulder. I can now draw for short little stints :)

I've been thinking alot lately about the steampunk genre, my absolute favorite theme of all, and my chibi drawing style...so here's a little something I came up with just for fun and to get me back in the mood to draw again...it's wayy out of the Pearl Too universe and literally off into the wild blue yonder, steampunk style...I give you my son, Zack, as a chibi steampunk airship captain....

Note: The above drawing was 99% colored using the Photoshop techniques found in the video tutorial at the bottom of this page...check it out, it vastly improved my abilities in that area, thanks to Wil, the heart and soul of Creative Soul TV.
