A year before I was born, made it a not too distant memory. Just growing up and looking back, Woodstock seemed years ago, even if it was only 12 years before birth. I had a Beatles phase, and still keep all the CDs in my car for easy listening or road trips. Simple music. Though they weren't at Woodstock, just the association with that whole era or generation, not unlike modern times in a lot of ways, with unrest Memorex, Senormac and 1950's war comics 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your drawing reminded me of this book that I must have checked out of the library a million times. I haven’t looked at it in about 40 years but the name and images are still fresh in my head from my childhood 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t looked at it in about 40 years but the name and images are still fresh in my head from my childhood The story is that, he was shot to death on the 8th of December, then on the 20th of December (coincidently it was my 20th Birthday) I stayed home alone and while having some Scotch Whiskys on the rocks and listening to The Beatles music, I took his picture from the White Album (LP back then) and started to draw him. Eventually whenever I had time (between surfing trips and hanging out), I finished the pencils then the inking (with a Rotring 0.1 pen), so by early March it was finished! You have to keep in mind the Christmas hollidays and that summer starts in december here in Perú and people go away for the season! I took this picture from the Internet, but now I notice that the shadow is to the right (the picture is inverted) Edited June 8, 2020 by Memorex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senormac Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 (edited) I'm really excited to show a couple more "progress shot" pictures for my upcoming book. This is the first page of the Jim and Joe Parker section. They are walking down a graffiti marked alley in East Portland on a reconnaissance mission.
