Wow, you are drastically improving with the amount of detail that you apply with your art. From afar this appeared to be a simple picture and yet lovely at the same time, but I enlarged it and I saw a great deal of work put into this! Very nicely drawn, I must say! ^^

Wagon wheels aren't so easy to illustrate huh? Those spokes, poles, supporters, what ever they're called. They change view as they reach the other side. That wheel must have taken some time to draw. It looks magnificent. That wheel has seen some better days. Ahhh the stories that wheel could tell. Beautifully illustrated it is.
That saddle looks marvelous as well. I like the way you left the very edges lightly shaded.
That Hard Caliber looks beautiful. Again that is something that is hard to draw and look good. Beautiful detail on that holster.
This is a marvelous drawing.

..I appreciate it Shane. I thought it was a remarkable coincidence that we both had wagon wheels under our drawing pencils at the same time---some people believe that there is no such thing as coincidence, and they may be right....
...your use of the wagon wheel in a holiday card is inspired; what a beautiful Christmas card you created!!!

Its certainly odd that we were both drawing wagon wheels at the exact same time. I thought that a snow covered wagon wheel would be an unusual Christmas card.

Damn, you put so much detail into it. The wagon wheel hurts me for the level of attention put into it. >_<

....I think I zoned out doing that saddle, had an off-planet experience, came back and it was done....

LOL I do that as well. Three days later, the page is filled up, you're covered in charcoal or graphite, and wondering why you're hungry and sitting in a cold puddle. XD
