I thought it might be intriguing to offer up the preliminary sketch for this week's "Say What?" I concentrate on maintaining the spontaneity of the pencil rough when I ink the final. Kinda tricky.

cop: Drop the sharp object and step out of your vehicle.
john: drop the... you mean my pencil? I'm not in a...
cop: Hup! It has wheels, ergo it's a vehicle; I'm not going to argue with you about it, sir, just step out slowly, please. Do you know why I pulled you over?
john: No. wait, you didn't...
cop: Your lines were all over the place.
john: Well, I was going to ink it next.
cop: Sure you were. Have you been drinking, sir? Is that an open bottle next to you?
john: what, was I drawing while intoxicated?
cop: ha. you make me laugh. I'll only give you a written warning this time, since it meets my quota and I'd be fired if this went to court, but let me just ask you... is my ass really that big?
Love the expanded editions, John!
Cowboy and G! Now there's a buddy cop flick I'd like to see.

HEY COWBOY
I think I'll cook up a visual scenario for Flinchy next. Not only is he fun to draw, but you guys riff like nobodies business.
Hey Z
I enjoyed that! I was hoping someone would get to the DUI reference. Neat stuff.
