happy birthday jamie! unfortunately, this isn't a good representation of what the original looks like. it's much lighter and doesn't have the "fuzzy white spots" -- i just didn't have the patience to layer on enough ink wash to make it this dark.

both of these have a bit of photoshopping going on -- basically i just darkened them and flattened the contrast a bit, then added a few fuzzy white spots for light effect.

See the above comment -- sadly, the originals aren't quite as snazzy. Here's what they look like: (& they're ink washes, not watercolor..)

your not giving yourself enough credit! those both would look awesome framed on my wall!

well they weren't meant to be framed, the first (w/ papercutter in it) is much nicer as a stand-alone piece, but still.. i thought about making them frameable (ie: dark and w/ hand-done lighting effects) as i was drawing it, but just said fuckit and went the lazy route.
