Willy the Pimp

Ok, so his name isn't Willy (doesn't have a name) but it worked for a quick title... Below is my latest Xara work. It's a "mascot" of sorts for a website I'm working on. Not much to say otherwise, it's a pretty straight forward xara illustration. Enjoy. Ask if you've got questions.

I like it! Joe. Shading, colours, graduated fills (I wish I knew how to do that),$100 bills, how about printing us some?

Great character drawing, Joe. Memorabile, so he will be easily identifiable with the web site. Excellent use of tints and shades for the fills.

Excellent drawing, Joe; your skill with caricature is obviously well-honed. I sent you a PM with an idea I wanted to bring to your attention.

It's a nice drawing. However, I have to say, that seeing life from the other perspective, I would fail to give grandeur to those who really do "keep a good girl down".

Thanks for the kind words. This really isn't much more than a repeat of what I've been doing with Xara for the last few years (sadly). Maybe one of these days I'll get the time to expand my focus a bit.

Sally,

Not sure how this is "giving grandeur" any more than if I'd drawn a thief would of been glorifying breaking and entering.
