Thats very good Ray, but theres one thing I must know before I vote… What exactly is holding the two halves of the eyewear together? ---

Well see, morpheus’ glasses just didn’t have the ear things, they were supported by the nose. But these glasses have no support, technically they should be falling forward and onto the ground 😛 ---

Ok, I decided to overlook the faulty eyewear and vote “YES!! ABSOULUTLY LOVE IT!.. WOW! you’re Awesome!” Simply for the fact that you ARE awesome and that drawing is too. ---

I hate you Ray! darn young whips, drawing all the time… You realize, I have to hunt you down now, just because you can do this… maybe I’ll have my g/f work up a doll for me… 😉 great drawing Ray. I too like to draw in Flash. I learned to draw in Flash before I was taught Illustrator, and never really even got into Photoshop because of FW… but I digress… I just want to know how did you get my high school grad photo to draw from? :beam: Rev ![](http://www.aulman.com/rev.gif) ---

well i cant draw very well on paper (or anything for that matter…) but this is how i drew it… I made a very rough sketch with my Wacom pad… (it helps…) and i mean rough like… OMG thats ugly lol then i took time and traced over it, in flash to be smooth, and etc, and shape it to my liking (I love the pencil tool)… then i colored it a but… and it seemed to look ok =) hehe if you tell me to draw on paper and a quick drawing, i cant do it. (i cant show you the rough sketch i just made either, i accidentally deleted it =) ) Ps. hope its not a voo doo doll Rev 😉 hehe jk ---
