Why're you photographing this at all? Wouldn't a scanner be better?

I live in quite a remote place, scanning is not an option, would be nice, cheers

Living in a remote place is not a problem.
The scanner I useΒ (professionally for magazine illustration, although it's an average-quality scanner at 600 dpi) is so light and thin I carry it in my backpack (with books, laptop, camera, sketchpad, etc.) when I go out to the library & know I'll want to use it. (The library doesn't let patrons plug in. But anyway, average-quality though it is, this is the only scanner I've used or wanted since a friend hauled it out of the back of his closet & sold it to me for 10 bucks, 6 years ago.)
I saw similar scanners on eBay for $20, including shipping, and you can probably find them at garage sales.

(Avoid the thick-looking ones. They're HEAVY and require wall power.)
The only caution I'd give is, "there's a lock on the bottom of this kind of scanner, so the reading head doesn't get messed up while you're carrying the scanner around. USE the lock, or the thing will break."
This type of scanner gets all its power from USB-- no wall outlet electricity needed.

I hope you're a pro, and the job at Windward Mall is just a part-time gig. This is awesome art-- of you're not a pro, it's a waste of your talent. (Wow.)

the amount of detail in every little element of this piece is jaw-dropping. you never fail to amaze. the eye (rendered amazingly) in conjunction with the composition of the hands, ties the whole thing together perfectly.
another masterpiece, sir.
