Thunderbird Posted December 10, 2012 Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 I'm in awe of the skill of people who can draw or paint well. A friend was on a corporate do a while back and they had a cartoonist doodling people and also a chap cutting silhouettes out of card. Apparently it was amazing.

demonwolf444 Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 Correct, you obviously dont think much of it then? seems some love it others hate it. In real life its a lot more imposing, and the stag comes out and accross you a lot more. As said before, the crappy phone picture makes it look worse than it is.
