Flying naked men

I just thought I would share this one. Mr Chris Holland (XLJ) is planning to get a back tattoo, and elected to commission me to draw him one (presumably in some effort to avoid ever having to get it done). This is my latest proposal. Damn him for making me draw feet.


My most enduring memory of The Mary Whitehouse Experience[1] is their book, The Mary Whitehouse Encyclopedia, for the following entries[2]:

Feet: The natural enemy of the Artist.

Hands: See Feet.


It remains true to this day.

Not to sound too critical, but when designing something to go over a person's back, it is better to start with a surface of the same dimensions as the back.

That way (once you've measured Mr Holland) you'll know what size it needs to look good at, and can make it look good at that size.
