Paul, that Mustang is out of this world. You are a true artist. :D That puppy is getting printed out and hung up in my office.


Aw dude, I'm touched. I spent close to three minutes getting all the proportions just right...well, I did a crayon study for about a minute (like Wade Meyers does a pencil study before painting), then went straight to the mouse, fought with getting the lettering just right--that was the hardest part because of the four cups of coffee I drank--made my hand shake. This reminds me of the time I drew the Bismark sinking in first grade art class--mom put it on the fridge right away.



Ah here it is in all it's glory!! :D

Aw man, I got goosebumps! I need a moment....... :cry:

Well, the first two beers are the good stuff, then if it's combat drinking conditions, I drink the "light" cheap stuff the rest of the time. For a six pack of Stella, I can barely buy two gallons of Jet-A. Good news is it only burns 300 gallons/hour...HA!

Well, at those rates, I think I would probably ration the Stella! Nothing like a good Schlitz to hanger fly with.

I can't believe you took a whole three minutes on Bears Mustang though! But it does look beautiful in his office!!!
