I am a bad, bad man. Mmmm...

bad... like a naked girl running out of a shower!

I gotta say, this has got to be one of the nicest things anyone has ever done to a sketch of mine! All that digital inking probably took you longer to do than the original took me to draw.

Wow, this seems to be a popular image. I should draw naked women more often.

Anyway, this is from a friend of mine who doesn't read the strip, by the name of Alan Cook. Like so many artists, he has a Piro complex.

So without further ado, and minus digital inking (but plus pretty shading), Occultech's latest ad:

I've watched you draw, so that's possibly true.

Piro complex?

Whoops, my fangirl-nerdishness is showing again. A Piro complex refers to an artist who constantly puts himself down ("I suck, I'm a hack, I can't draw" etc.). It's a joking term that originally referred to Fred Gallagher (AKA Piro), creator of Megatokyo (at least to the best of my knowledge). So what I mean to say is that my friend is a very good artist but refuses to admit it.

Alternately known as the Doruk Complex
