Description I don't know... I just wanted to try draw Smithers as a kid. I'd say this was attempt 1... ^^'

I like to think Mr. Burns would have showed Waylon Jr. pictures of and shared 'some' memories of his father with him when he was younger. (In some alternate parallel universe I suppose... xD)
Hairstyles/clothes etc are probably waaay off and aren't in line with canon but I like Mr. Burns with that hair and haven't spent as much time studying the Simpsons or Burnsmithers as some fans. (Which is of course cool if you have too )

(Playing around with palettes again, added other shades to it though... oh and I actually did a background o_o' err sort of.)

Such a dear concept; Monty sharing photos with young Smithers ^_^ 

i love your style, it's both simple and elegant, and you're able to convey a great deal of mood in your pieces. There is a beauty in this piece, and I can't help but smile as I look at it.

This is so precious it makes my teeth ache (in a good way). Their expressions are great - Waylon with his youthful ebullience, and Monty with his wistful reminiscence.

Beautifully rendered.

No, I say his hairstyle seems pretty correct for the timeline you have Waylon Jr. pegged in. That slightly balding comb-over seems reminiscent of the 60s - early 70s which Jr. should be the appropriate age as seen above. They keep switching around the timelines however, so it's enough to drive anyone mad.

If I remember, the season 13 DVD had a commentary for The Blunder Years episode, where the people who wrote the story, were explaining that Smithers was apparently born in the 70s.. But that could've been changed.

Thank you for the confirmation, I was having a little difficulty putting all the timelines together in my mind.
I ended up just re-watching a bunch of the Burns/Smithers flashback episodes, which helped but I still wasn't 100% sure. ^^'
New fandom and all.

I'd definitely love to see that, anything with Mr. Burns (Especially him being the villain) as long as they do it right Saying that though, I'm sure they've parodied spy movies to death by now.
