Those laces are the cats "meow" Pete. When I was a teen, my buddies and I were always drawing these carachters on our notebooks etc. in school. We always had hairy warts on them as well as a
"Halo" of flies buzzing around their head and of course the proverbial drool out the corner of the mouth! The more repulsive (GROSS) you could draw it the better it was! You are turning this into a masterpiece of revulsion. Tip 'O the Hat to you Sir. Rick H.

Love those laces.....the warts are good too, but if I said I loved warts it would seem rather strange

Hi Rick thanks for the nice comment very kind of you.
I don't think I could do the flies buzzing around his head but might have ago at the drool coming out of his mouth we're have to see.

Cheers Tim, I see what you mean about the warts and yes it would be strange indeed.
Sorry to see you and yours aren't too good at the moment, I really hope you both get through it ok.
Pete.

Hi Joe I think quite a few of you over your side of the pond grew up with rat fink by the sound of it, just hope I can do it justice.
Pete.
Just out interest whereabouts in Ohio are you, I lived in Chillicothe south of Columbus down the 23 for about 18 month in a satellite garage back in the early 80s which was multi franchised until it went all belly up and had to come to the UK.
Pete.

Pete we are in columbus..we Have some friends who live down in Chillicothe as well ..pretty sure the rat fink is going to be outstanding

Just what we expect to see in your work Pete, perfection in the making.
