Description Well, it took long enough, eh?

Here you have it, the coloured version of my most popular deviation. It took me forever because I had inking problems, and then marker problems, and then scanning problems.

I didn't want the scanner to cut off my signature like it normally does, so I put it under Leo's arm, thinking "Ha! It can't possibly cut it off now!" And so the scanner just chopped off Leo's arm instead. Cheeky scanner.

Jason flopped. I mentioned at the sketch that I didn't like how he turned out. I tried to re-sketch him, and then I tried to fix him while inking, and then I tried to fix him again while colouring, but it just didn't work. His torso's too long, his head's too big, his arms are too short, and his shoulders are too narrow. His pants are the wrong colour and he isn't looking at the... camera? Jason is just a monument of UGH. I guess I just didn't put the same effort into him, because I didn't get as attached to him as I did to the other two. I dunno.

It's funny... so many people are hating on Piper. Not Jason.

I didn't really mind Piper. She's alright. I dunno, something about Jason just really rubbed me the wrong way, I guess.

But regardless, Leo is my favourite

you know, the scanner has limits to where the paper goes, so if you watch where the paper is on the scanner, it'll fit.

My scanner is one of those "all in one" printer/scanner/photocopier thingies, and I'm pretty sure it scans by ink detection (so if there's not enough pressure down on the picture, it won't detect it and it'll just crop that bit out). But thanks for the tip... I'll have to go look at my scanner now. I'm a little scanner inept

lol, my scanner is the same thing. I love it, but hate it at the same time. Mine has an indention where the glass is so I can just fit it in. Mine will, if I have something on both sides of the paper, cut it in the middle and have two pics. I'm no computer wiz, but I'm good enough

He's a little stereotypical and flat... I'm just hoping that he improves when and if he gets his memory back
