By Oey, who has fulfilled my vision before. This time tho', I didn't draw it out myself (like my snowflake), but I sent him a pic and the idea and like a mind reader, he made it. <br/> <br/>I got a scorpion, Ernie's sign, the segments of the body spell out his name, subtle but there. Beautiful color, a blue grey, almost mettalic color with kick ass drop shading that pop in out in life size realism. <br/> <br/>This guy is the best, I highly recommend him for pretty much everything. He's so creative and yet, he listens very carefully to what you say, what you want and creates a special piece of art just for you.
