GREAT piece! It looks a bit blurry. Is it reaaly like that or it's just a scanner thing? I must say i really like it. !

It's probably because I took a picture of this with a digital camera. But, I didn't think it really affected the aesthetic quality of it so I didn't bother to scan better. Thanks for the fav!!!

Nice drawing? His right arm (the one holding the gun), looks a little long, but that is a hard perspective to get. The bullet holes in the wall are awesome, and excellent details on the gun.
