The Cartoon in the Helmet is better, although I have to say, there is a reason why you only draw cartoons with 4 fingers... You're not being "cutting-edge" by using 5.
yes i hired these people because of their portfolio - they did this first and pretty fast and I was pretty happy with it - then it was time to develop that illustration into a logo and more - then the usual excuses began when they missed deadlines they promised - finally a week ago after almost a month of this she told me she was having serious personal problems - then she burned her hand badly - so she handed me off to another artist with a great portfolio and after 3 days she emails to tell me they have a huge job for PBS and I can't use that artist - so she shows me this guy's portfolio and it's very good too and there are styles of drawing close to what I want - so that's where I am now - probably gonna give him a C note and move on.
