I dig it. It's got that oldtime oriential style.

I suggest you get a Wacom tablet if you want to transfer stuff like this to the computer, or if you just want to draw strait onto the computer.

It's what I got and use now, and it's a ton better. Although it takes a few weeks to get used to.

The tablet I bought was about 95$ at Bestbuy. I'm sure if you went around looked for them on the net you could find some deals for them.

yeah i think i see what you mean
but as of rite now, im just browsing the sticky for a good coloring tutorial, somethng that is easy to follow... maybe adding the color aspect will flesh them out a bit.

i mean how could i digitally color these pictures, if iwanted to?

I think they kinda look good without that much detail. I mean, it could just be his style.
