Dick Tracy!

Dick Tracy and Company for David "BroHawk" Williams. David came up with the best scenario for using the mugshots, and I loved digging up all my old Dick Tracy comics looking for bad guys. He gave me free reign as to which ones I included. I tried to stick with ones that appeared several times or just looked flippin' crazy. Case in point: The Brain. Personally, as soon as I finished "Little Face" I couldn't stop laughing, so I think he's my favorite.

I tried to stick with the aesthetic of the strip rather than the movie as well. Nothing against the movie, I just like the strip better.

And if you look around you might notice that David himself is in there, couldn't pass up on the chance. If you don't know Dave (the guy is a legend as far as I'm concerned) go give his work a look, you will not be disappointed. Before I get a print made I'm going to stick the logo underneath as well.

3 of these things are not like the others:

this is really REALLY great, Evan. I was pretty jazzed to see this badboy. Lemme know if you do up prints.
I love Dick! ...wait, what?

Thanks fellas. Matt- Unfortunately I won't be doing prints since this was a personal piece for Dave. However, I doubt this is the last time I'll draw Dick Tracy, so who knows?
