Something’s Always Missing

imagined by: James Mathias

For all the things he had, Chuck always felt something was missing.

I drew this for the Illustration Friday topic “Missing”.

I hope you enjoy it, it’s been a while since I posted an illustration, even longer since I participated in IF and today felt like the right time to do one.

Hey. My first time back at IF today, too.

Nice work. I need to learn how to be so sophisticated with color.

How’d you manage to do this on August 5th, it being late on the 3rd?

Oh crap, ha ha, I just mis-dated it. Oh well, I was thinking of Sunday cause that’s when the new episode of 4400 hits. Sorry about that, all.

mmrtnt, thanks I appreciate it.

I was just thinking “What ever happened to those awesome drawings?” as I was loading your site up. This guy is hella cool.

I noticed he has different colored s h o e s this time. Any reason why?

peroty, thanks! I waited two days to see if your prophecy was correct, turns out you’re no Nostradamus. Them’s the breaks kid.

Kim, thanks I appreciate it. I hope you continue visiting. I need to clean up the CSS on this site.

Brent, thanks, I’m going to try and do at least one per week, drawing that is. The Shoes are different as they released a new version of Air Jamadus so everyone is wearing them now.

Man, I like it. You draw just the way I would if I could.
I can draw somethings, but not as clean as yours. Keep up the good work. Wolverine and Spider man are my two favorite dudes.
