Through the Wayback Machine!

A friend asked to see some old artwork I’d done for Playboy.com years and years ago and I couldn’t find it anywhere! So…I went to the internet archive’s Wayback Machine! Good lord, I had an ugly site back in the day! There was one thing I did miss though: This little animated me

This one is a little more successful but only because it’s more crap to look at.

I began adding more life to the line on this one
…and finally, here I left those color fields out of the equation!
