Right, so I pulled out of the previous GFX round due to not being able to finish on time. Since then I've been working on the image on-and-off and now it's finished only about a week late.
The picture shown below is half the size, the fullsize one can be found by clicking on the picture.
The full resolution pic (1280xs1024) is low quality...the high quality version is 1.1Mb and doesn't fit on photobucket xD Lame. Except I feel justified with the size...this was hand-drawn from start to finish.
I should have tidied up the sketchlines more, but wasn't actually intending to spend this much effort on it. Meh.
[url=http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm193/kingryanv/stropmaraccas.jpg]Mexican Strop - Once again, Strop has donned the full length dress, opting to the colour of white. The lovely belt just adds to this dress, showing his slim waistline. With a maraca in one hand and a tambourine in the other, Strop is ready for a nice afternoon somewhere in Mexico!
Virus Strop - Oh NO! Strop has been captured and injected with a deadly virus that is making him turn into some kind of beast. He is suspended on a cliff wall, standing on a board placed between two points in the rockface. The virus was injected into his neck, so his face has been mutated, and it is slowly making its way through his body. As his legs are mutating, the spikes are piercing his trousers. Soon, he will be fully transformed. When this happens, he will be too heavy for the wood, as you can see the rope is already fraying, and he will fall. His shoulders will snap as the chains hold him and he will end up as carrion.

Oh...and on the second pic...let me tell you a story.
Me: Hey Sally (Name changed for security reasons) look at my picture. Sally: Wow! That's real nice. (Sarcastic tone) Me: I know! Sally then grabs it and scrunches it up. Me: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
