  7. I figured you would have an excellent "robot" contribution and I wasn't disappointed. Excellent color pallete and as usual, your linework is fantastic.

  8. Great bot. I like the limited colors. I think my life would be much more simple if I would follow your example.

  9. I love theis old school laboratory and creation look you have here! The scenario is amusing, and the the limited palette creates the feeling of a dungeon where unspeakable scientific experiements occur...very Dr. Frankenstein! I'm glad you were able to finish this for this week's topic - it works perfectly!

  16. I love your line. I'm really into line and keep wishing I could use it more effectively and more expressively. I love the hatching. And just as much, I love your use of limited color.

  17. Excellent! Looks like it 'sproinged' to mind fully formed! My favourite of your recent posts!!

    I love the light on the mad scientist's face and the cockeyed angle of the poor robot. The hatching in the darks is beautiful. ~ Arna

  19. Wow, yeah. I love robots and I love this drawing. It reminds me of the art from Jacob Two-Two meets the Hooded Fang...the original book, not the new Nelvana cartoon.

    Hooray for Robots!
