Don't take this the wrong way, but why? Is it because of the scale?

I like the piece. It has a nice folk artwork appeal to it.

I took some liberties with this one. Though the Snowstorm blitz occured before Habs was making his famous needles, as a kind of tribute to him I used a Habs needle for the plug in the drawing. The pic of it sucks because if you see the real drawing you can see the plug bag hanging over the guys shoulder and his plier sheath on his belt cinching his Grundens 38 even though he is only slightly over an inch tall in the real drawing.

Yeah it's folksie but you can see the individual scales in the real drawing the background is almost a drawing by itself.

It's fun doing them again after a 20 +/- year hiatus

Why even try.........
