    Default Bad News

    A suspicious looking character waiting outside the county courthouse and the seasoned and weary detective deep in thought and keeping an eye out.

    Honestly, it was my intention to include the right side wheels. I don't know how they got left out, but this stuff happens to me all the time. sheeesh!
    Problem solved. Thanks Steve.

    Thanks Gary!

    Another classic, Ron. Must have had the two wheels stolen in the first one. I'd check out that shifty looking guy.

    Great image Ron. I really like the people lit up in the office. Nice touch. I also like the way you did your tree. I have a hard time with trees and shrubs. Your building gives a great feel to the image. The only critique that I could give is that the flags are not casting a shadow. Just a fantastic image all the way around Ron. Thank you for posting. You know, this is the type of artwork that looks good in restaurants, diners and office buildings my friend. Keep up the great work.

    Ok. I've added some shading and touched up a few things, but I think I'm done with this drawing for a while. I'll come back and revisit it after some time and inspect it again.

    I didn't like the title I gave it in the beginning because as the drawing progressed I went in a different direction, so, I've renamed the drawing "County Courthouse".

    Much better Ron. The first one bothered me because the texture in some areas made the planes mushy. This revision is first class.

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.
