Artist's Comments

Well, it's finally done. Way later than it should have been. But I did get pretty backed up with school stuff and stress and woo, fun. And laziness, I don't deny that there was some of that in there... But now it's finally finished and I can send it on its way :) This took me...I don't even know how long, but it was a while. All done with a mechanical pencil, on 11x14 Bristol board. I used 3 different reference pictures and made up the pose by combining them and a little invention. T'was fun, but it took too long. I sortof rushed the body, but then again, I'm frequently guilty of that... This is, of course, a German Shepherd Dog, named Ursula.

EDIT: uploaded a slightly darker version...trying to get it to look closer to how it does in RL. It's a little washed out in the scan.

You should know better than to wake a man when he's sleeping. 'S bad luck.

Ah, fortunately I know how to counter it. The man who did the waking buys, the man who was sleeping, a drink. The man who was sleeping drinks it while listening to a proposition
