Description Character created by *JDCONE

Illustrated by Eric Blumrich perhaps the best damn illustrator you've never heard of.

Here's a piece from one of my favorite Oswald stories I was there and I remember.

In it Oswald eats a ladybug and has to go into dream to convince her mother to give a replacement ladybug to her owner.

Oswald has to perform a number of tasks and eventually gets married becomes an emperor and goes to war with his own children.

All that in one night, gotta love them dreams, lol.

Aww, what a cute story!
That is a fantastic illustration, props to Eric!
I would definitely scan that in at a high color hi resolution. Black and white drawings very rarely scan in well on grayscale..

Yea, Eric the artist did this all in pen and ink by hand.

I only wish I could get a better scan because the one that's here doesn't do it justice.

I may try scanning it in color to see if I can get all of the details.

I think Eric told me that it had twelve hundred lines or some where in that area.

Don't ask me how he counted, lol.

Yeah, that's the look he was going for.

Like an old style wood carving.
