This really sickens me - mainly because I have a deep respect for Llamas, but when I stumbled into a local latrine I couldn't believe my own eyes.
I'm not sure how, but has managed to transform Llamas into Urinal Cakes! According to some sales charts [ which I found on the Internet ], he's making a bloody fortune!
If you gave a llama to Dave, someone has probably already soiled it in one form or another. Dave's clients aren't exactly Fortune 500 companies. After all, what kind of place would even buy Llama Cakes for their urinals?!?!?
Do me a favor. Give me a llama badge instead of giving one to Dave. I'm sure that after I turn this photo over to the authorities an investigation will ensue - but until he's properly shut down, I don't want to see anymore llamas harmed and turned into Urinal Cakes!
BTW, could use a llama badge or two as well. Thanks.
UPDATE: Thanks to a generous benefactor [ who will remain anonymous unless he wishes to be named! ] I've pulled ahead to FANCY LLAMA!!! At long last! My dreams have come true and in doing so, defeated the Devil(pig) all in one fell swoop!
Man, it feels good. Thanks to everyone that donated badges! Hit me here if I didn't throw you one back and I'll gladly return the favor!
LONG LIVE LLAMAS and down with ( sometimes good does conquer evil! tee-hee! )

Any time you put your work out there [ in a comic book or on the web or in a gallery ], you're up for criticism. Sometimes the critiques aren't necessarily valid. They're coming from fans or, in a lot of cases, keyboard warriors that just want to be negative for the sake of being negative. But in almost all cases, there's something to be learned by criticism.
My wife is a perfect example. She's not an artist, which is my usual go to excuse wh
The Secret Drawing Ingredient
If you're an artist of any kind it's extremely important to hone your craft and technical abilities. After all, the better you draw and the better you are at mastering the drawing tools you use - the easier it is to convey your unique message for public consumption.
But how important is technical ability, really? Obviously, it's very important. Understanding anatomy, light and shadow and perspective are key to solid drawing. It's important to always be improving in those departments. It's also very important to master the tools you use to draw with. Learning to render or color professionally can only increase your appeal to both fans an

Q: After all, what kind of place would even buy Llama Cakes for their urinals?!?!?
A: the same kinda place that still employs the "trough" (pronounced troff, phonetically, in case i spelled it wrong) system of urinals... just one big toilet where everyone pees at once. its one of the creepiest things to piss in a trough. but i guess its one of those things that "gives you character".
