Description Cheesy title. Anywho, here you go, Princie. You gave me carte blanche, and I took it. Sorry I spent a year thinking about it.

Red-tailed hawk stooping. I kept bouncing between eagle and hawk, so it still has a bit of an eagle head. It's in watercolors on paper with nasty instant coffee dumped all over it. I used the back of an old knife the pad over the eye, so it shines in the light.

Refs from ~Turly . ^^ I think the pose ref is a yourshot, but I'm not sure.

Comments and crit are appreciated.

XD I get ya! I'm an advanced chesmistry student and my father worked as a chemist for a while, so I'm well aware that there's more to chem than meth.

there is a running gag at work/school that we could just say "fuck it I have student loans to pay lets just make meth."

Except it's REALLY dangerous to make, especially right now (the almighty grapevine says it's cuz psuedoephedrines have been restricted - I dunno, though). XD So you'd probably just blow yourself to Texas.

P.S. You look btter in the photo, blame my stupid drawing and useless drawing skills for uglifying your face. *headdesk*

The Sierpinski triangle/spiderweb was referred from one of your spiderweb photos, and is white with a black background. *scratches head* If only I can remember where the heck I misplaced it...

Did you actually ride in the trunk, or are you quoting something? xD Cuz riding in the trunk sucks.

Oh, yes. That's we used to do to get past the security guard when he's checking ID cards. XD But we've quit that; the new rent-a-cop isn't strict, and it's not worth dying to go to lunch.

Yeah. It's not fun. And if somebody rear ends your car, you get squashed like a bug, so it's kind of scary, too. xD (who was in the trunk, out of curiousity?)

The other issue is that it throws of the balance of the car. It's not good for the suspension. Moral of story is don't do it. xD
