And then the agency called up and asked me if I was able to draw a crazy old man with a large, covered erection, smoking cigarettes, with the remains of many old smokes on the ground around him. For a t-shirt.
I laughed, "For real?"
"For real. You have free reign to go to town on it. Cartoony and expressive."
"I love you guys."

They totally have my number.

Priapic, slight lean, yep, I think that will do.

I've got my own image in my head, but I can't wait to see yours (if you show us, that is).

Yay, keep rocking, OR ELSE.

More than seeing the image, I am dying to know WHY they wanted this, and WHAT it's meant to be selling (if something other than itself). Seems writing stuff on the internets has worked in your favor!

Teh internets giveth and has not yet taketh away. Especially when I get to do stuff like this.

I'd explain why, but it may compromise the client (I'm not completely 100% on the disclosure aspects of some of my stuff yet), so let's just say I own the rights to a picture I'd never have thought to draw myself but am going to plaster in my journal anyway!

After. I know. Seems like a strangely apt occurrence. Eh?

Don't pigeonhole yourself into drawing erections. I know many people who have trodden that road. It is a lonely, sexually frustrating place. But successful.

You're right. I'd hate be known as the penis guy.

I did and I appreciated that too.
You'll notice how well it worked for the client when I update next.

No too high on my blush-o-meter though, that part's broken.

Season's greetings!
