Saw you at Akon, Love your work!
Thanks! Hope you enjoyed the con.
Welcome & I did
Hey there, awesome work dude! Really fun and impeccably executed. I notice you're local too! If you're up for it, we've started a monthly sketch-group for local comic artists, illustrators and cartoonists called :iconsketchbomb-austin: and it'd be great to see you at a meet. We have a Facebook page and Meetup Group too if you're interested.
ITS SOOO AWESOME TO SEE YOU AGAIN BTW! im really happy with your commision, and its still on the wall if you wanna see a pic of it there.
I'm glad you're happy with it! =^.^=
