I was pretty much self taught and my computer graphics professor loved me for it. As for toon Als, well here's what I've done recently.

I like Al and love swimming, why not have the best of both worlds?

Here's my official TRO Comix logo, Ryan.

I didn't think about adding the logo to the stand-alone "TRO Al" because it was filed with my other TRO character designs.

Thanks! That logo's acutally a parody a college program's logo.

I have GOT to get a scanner so I can do more drawings. I've had nothing to do but work so far and it's driving me nuts!

I plan on a Jedi picture too.

Mad Genius, I love your drawings of al.

Aron, I also looked at some of your stuff, and its great too!

I want to draw some al-toons..but ive been busy with finals and I don't have a scanner so that kinda limits me. I'd love to submit some of my art though.

I believe I have a temp solution.

I can take photos of what I've drawn and inked but they wont be good for coloring and they wont be thehighest quality themselves.

I gotta draw though, it's been 4 weeks.

Well I jumped right in and started the Jedi one.

Oddly enough, it's going to look a bit like the first one I did layout-wise. He faces the same way.

It's a lot more active though and He's going to be wielding a lightsaber in one hand, and he will have his trusty accordion slung over his shoulder.

Here's my question to you guys--- when I do get a scanner to color it... what color would Al's lightsaber be?

I toyed with the idea of a Hawaiian print lightsaber and I have no clue how I'll do it--- but I thought I'd toss the question in the air--- if Al was a Jedi--- what color would his lightsaber be?
