Ha ha, you mean you saw it on facebook before you saw it on dA? How odd. I remember submitting it a long time ago, too. I remember thinking, hey, this is pretty decent. Then I saw the public graffiti wall and my jaw dropped my eyes melted, and I was put to shame!
But now I have one of those fancy-pants tablet-monitor thingies like the pros have, so maybe I can step it up a bit.
=^-^=
Thanks for the comment and the fave. Very much appreciated.
By the way, if you haven't seen the replay, I added the link up in the description on this page. I watched it a few minutes ago and I think my technique was pretty rough then compared to how I'd do it now.

I thought this looked awesome anyway but when I learned you did this with Facebook graffiti I was stunned! You must have amazing patience for all this fine detail heheh! And the best thing was how you made the most of what you had (since the graffiti tools don't really give you a lot to work with)
Impressive!

Thakn you. You're very kind. I'm rather proud of it myself. I think using limited tools forces resourcefulness and creativity rather than overdoing the technical end of things.

I will say that the phrase at the bottom is what elevates this from being "just graffiti". It's well-drawn, obviously - but that adds the perfect touch to make it "art".

Thank you. I spent some time deciding on a phrase. That one seemed to fit nicely.
