AAAttackers Street-Art

It wasn't literally on a street...
As you all know, Byakko is a bit of an iconic mascot for the web-comic. So I drew him outside in an area of high foot-traffic. There's a Swedish neighborhood in Chicago called "Andersonville." This area has a lot of hip restaurants and bakeries. My birthday was on the 28th of August and my uncle was treating me to dinner and ice cream there. But I drew this today on the 29th, we celebrated today instead.

There's also a well known comic book store called "Alleycat," which is actually in an alley. You need to walk through a tiny nook between two buildings, follow it and you'll arrive in a small alley and there stands Alleycat. In front of the store there's brick pavement and lots of chalk. So people just draw random stuff all over the ground.
I was eating a rapidly melting ice cream cone from a nearby ice cream parlor while drawing this. So Byakko was the fastest thing I could draw in my current situation. I even signed my pen-name "Epik" in the corner.

Yeah, people who hang around Alleycat will definitely see Byakko. Isn't it awesome?!

That's a great drawing and very cool that others will see it!

The 28th would have been my eldest brother's birthday as well. I hope you had a great time!

I see what you mean (I confess I have a t-rex plushie that I love, maybe because mine doesn't talk. XD)
