Cool - Onika art on its way! Besides, you've got a dragon
here to who tends to remember such things and would have
eventually prodded you. :-)

Argh - didn't bring a disk to save and view - next time!
Yes, library computers mean that you rely on the ol' 3.5"
magnetic media to move data around. But better than being
disconnected, so I won't complain too loudly!

That's pretty good - I tend to use references for nearly
all my stuff at the current stage of my drawing. My
structures are not strong enough to 'work out of my head'.
In some ways, using an existing pose can be harder,
especially if the viewer has the original reference to
compare against (a real killer when airbrushing). Though
since they usually don't, you can get away with lots more.

Hmm, I can guess the pose - I'll have to wait and see!

Doing a quick bit of math, if you take 5 minutes to answer
each email, then you'll be up for a 25 hours session. If
you're brief at 2.5 minutes, then it will still be a good
~12 hours! :-)

Since it is now daybreak, JMH has decided to go to bed.
Having slept through most of the day, he'll arise again as
the nocturnal artist and emerge back online... :-P
Scrapper, Black Dragon, who understands the backlog issue!
