  1. Really love the details and the main character, but there is a thing that catch my eyes... that ox (bull) over there! Loved it! never saw you drawing this kind of animal :)
    You should come to Brazil sometime and take a look at some exotic new animals for your drawings.

  3. Ah, I love it! I especially like the ox. :)

    I have one question for you too; What do you use for cutting your illustration boards? What type of cutter? I've been searching for one for a long time, but I can't seem to find anything as it is either way too weak or way too solid for the purpose. Thank you in advance.

  4. I bought a used 16x16 inch cutter at a flea market. It's big and heavy, but it cuts better than any of the fancy newer ones I've tried to buy that were more expensive too.

  5. Thank you for your quick answer. :) Hmm, I just have to try my luck and look around for one then!
