Well, I did originally draw a pic to thank you guys for the 300K hits but I didn't like it very much so you can have this instead. This was a pretty neat drawing that started out as more of a sketch of the characters separately but as I kept going I integrated them and decided to ink and color it with watercolors. Of course, once again I made the mistake of using watercolor on improper surface so the picture is rather warped in many places and was quite difficult to take a photo of. The colors don't look as nice anymore. but I still think it's a good example of the direction I'm going in with my art. I'm becoming comfortable with my tendencies, like drawing biggish heads and elongated pupils, but my anatomy starts to suck a little when I worry more about style. This is particularly noticeable in Zoro's weird positioning but I liked certain elements of him so much I didn't want to redraw it. All in all, I'm pleased with this.

So the first three strawhats, yay. Even then they kind of seemed like a complete set. But y'know, I really like how things started so simple like this and then snowballed into more and more awesome. Oh man, I have such a thing for super long series.
