Oh hey, it's my face! For what occasion you may ask? Well, I finished drawing all of the pages for Black Ball Issue 5! This week on my weekly newsletter, I did a video talking about the ins and outs of the project as a whole, what happened along the way, how I'm feeling disappointed about taking two years to finish the book, but how I'm trying to turn it around into a positive state of mind. I'm just in my BMW Sauber phase!
