    Nice! Is that the Nesingwary 4000? Its nice to see someone take a ‘realism’ approach to the characters.

    Awesome! How much does he charge for stuff like this? I might have to hit him up once his Commisionathalon thing is over.

    Scott, please lose the greengrocers’ apostrophe.

    I’m going to beg my family to get O to do a full-color rendition of Icesnake for my birthday.

    Did he do it for free? Do you understand the concept of a commission? A commission is when you pay an artist to make an original piece of art for you. The whole point of Commissionathlon is for O to get people to pay him for art. As for how much it cost, I’m sure O works out the prices with his clients on a case-by-case basis, but the Commissionathlon FAQ said that full color art starts at $100, which is more than a fair price for your very own original piece of artwork.

    @Cephas: You don’t think I know what a commission is? Why am I replying to this…

    Was there for the recording. While painting O’s double monkey grip was a blur… a blur of awesomeness.

    Plus the play list for the night was pretty good.

    Is it just me or does Gerp look strangely like Kimbo Slice?

    This blew me away when I first saw it and I couldn’t even type words to describe it. Still that way.
    .
    Look at Henry. He’s so completely loyal. Who cares what his stats are. He can never be replaced. He’s Henry.
    .
    And Gerp. He could be your best friend, or he could as easily rip your lungs out just by looking at you. You got me, O. 100%. This piece has drawn me in completely and tells a fantastic story.
