I can't stand George Jr., but I'll be damned if it doesn't look just like him.

Nice work.

I like the style, it's very loose while being tight at the same time.

Keep up the good work!

how do you guys do that rough style of picture?

Tinusch · Posted: Sun Oct 14, 2001 8:18 am

Overall, I think it's great, and it definitely looks exactly like him. Love the colors and rough quality of some spots. I think the rough, sketchy look works really well in the forehead area, but toward the bottom, like the chin and suit, I think it's a little too contrived. It looks like the sketchiness came naturally at the top, but then at the chin it just looks a little too rough and forced. Just my opinion. I'd say tighten up certain areas and it would be perfect. But I love it as it is anyway. Nice job.

I've always liked your style fleabrain.. just wonderful. The nose is really great. Skin tones look better compared to the roller coaster one. Yum. But. george is just kinda looking stupid there...

you need to jazz him up and make him look .. better. Put a chimp on his shoulder =)

Wow Poprockz, not only did you manage to deface a wonderful piece of artwork, you also managed to make a "joke" that was entirely distastful and utterly retarded. How old are you, like 11?

You must have a lot of time on your hands now that your career as Corky from "Life Goes On" has gone bust.

He still looks like a dang monkey

MoleculeMan · Posted: Tue Oct 23, 2001 8:35 pm

Bears a striking resemblance to the prez! Nice piece. And come on people, Pop and others were just joking around. Lighten up. Jeez-us.

yeah no kiddin kids! fuck, isnt your country based on the fact that you can make a mockery of your little monkey lookin puppet of a prez without goin to jail? MAN hes an idiot, i pity all of you! NOW GET IN THE JAIL!

this is old, but i failed to say how much i love it, fleabrain. the background works so well with it and i have no idea how you made it... and i love you short brush-stroke technique! also very decent resemblance.
