Word of the week : DISCOVER

I decided to use an old Peanuts comic I saw on the web as inspiration for this drawing. I wanted to try to get the look and feel but not completely copy it so I made sure not to look at the Peanuts image again until the drawing was completely done (when I then added the Dell logo). I think it came out alright. I wanted it to look like an old kid's discovery-type mag but I think I should have added more gadgets hanging from the kid (compass, etc.) to really get the idea across. I think it fell a little short.

Of course the Peanuts is better but who could top Schulz (even though he probably had nothing to do with such a lowly affair as the comic book reprints). The Peanut's color palette stands out a lot more then mine - and of course the characters are better even if you had never seen Charlie Brown before.
