Drawing in 4 X 3.5! Good Grief. You should do like a challenge - and
self punishment. Why was the smaller paper sized used instead of
11 X 14 or higher? I think you should try and stick with the larger
size if it's possible. Your detail skills would love it, and the CnC
fans
would love to see those skills in action. [My opinion only.]
... and for that house perspective at that 4 X 3.5 size, I'll kick the
letter grade up a notch.

Heh. Alas, no mushrooms. I did find a bag of m&m's I bought a few
months ago. [Do m&m's go bad?]
The blue did seem odd as I know you like to use a red pencil.

Yep, That's what it is.
The blue hue must be coming from the scanner and how it
interprets the light ink strokes. I de-composed the ink color
and found that the lighter strokes fade to a gray with a high
blue hue number. The blue comes out better if one moves
the page up and down fast enough. The original page must
look like having just faint gray lines on it - no blue hue at all.
Interesting.

Realistic Felines and Servals? Sure the fans would
recognize them. :D. Try a few stand alones to see
what the fans think. [Don't forget the human.]

At 4:45 in the AM? Ya got me there. Not too many
I guess. Heck, I don't even know how many women
get UP at 4 in the morning - to do anything.
[Well...there's sex...;D Maybe some of the women
type fans can educate us on other things. Wait...Are you
hinting that Des does laundry early in the morning? Now
I am curious.]

My bad...I thought it was 4:45 PM. :/
Actually, I thought you were following the model
sheet that was posted on the CnC forum - no more
earrings - maybe something else - setting a precedent
for the character; (hence my pondering of how far the
restyling would go - but Cheetah and your post
answered that.)

Evil ink.
