I'm incredibly happy with this, I have to tell you. I started out asking just for a simple villain or hero portrait, then dinosaurs were introduced (The whole Ankylosaurus situation was Mike's brilliant idea.), which of course necessitated wolves and wenches. And my deceased dog Basco. At this point, the three sisters of fate (my wife, her sister, and a dear friend of ours) were needed to watch over the proceedings. Oh dear, Mike must have though, this is very very serious... I better add a tortured comedy sidekick. Boom, Andre Navarro, looking decidedly unhappy with the situation.

Mike's doing commissions for people, and I highly recommend using him! He loves him some crazy ideas! ^_^ I'll leave it up to him to tell you his prices and such.

I debated with myself whether I should put this in the Artists' thread or in a new thread, but you do encourage making threads to pimp your stuff, so I thought I'd make one to pimp Mike's stuff.]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=8409&Focus=244917#Comment_244917 2010-06-15T03:53:51-07:00 2013-05-19T10:30:04-07:00 Oddcult http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/account.php?u=214

Mike is an absolutely phenomenal artist. And I don't say that just because he drew me slimmer than I actually am (while managing to nail my usual mood). Really, though: simply phenomenal.
