Description A Tribute, to two things. One being the fire fighters that literally risk their lives for us everyday. All of the medical people out there really, the army, navy, seals, all of them. I know we watch movies like the Avengers, Fantastic Four, etc and say they are the heroes...but when reality comes around, it's the people without the powers. The people like us, that made a choice to save lives. They're just like those heroes in our movies in the end.
The second thing this was for, was the horrible earthquakes in Japan a year or more ago. I never was able to draw a picture for them, but I pray for them as often as I remember...
A friend I've known online for quite a few years asked me to do this for him around the beginning of the year. Unfortunatly, I got stumped one some things on the picture and ended up slacking and getting crammed with other projects to finish, and didn't get to finish it when I wanted to. So to make sure I finished it, I changed the views a bit, made it close up. Quite a few changes were made, and I'm upset I didn't get to do everything he'd wanted me to do for the picture...But the turn out of it isn't as bad as I feared, somehow, it worked out all right. So I hope you like this Tommy. It took a long time, and I'm truely sorry I couldn't fit everything in the way you had described, and completely the way I imagined it. But I hope you like it none-the-less.

Arigatou! ^^ It took me forever to figure out how I wanted the colors to mesh. :/ at first they were all rather bright so I tried to dim 'em down, but then it got too dark, thus started the back and forth battles XD good thing the undo button exists!

no kidding...it'd be like it's taunting you. saying "mwahaha I exist but they havn't figured out how to make me work yet, so I will sit here and stare at your face and torture you until the day humans figure out how to make me, the undo button, work! >D " Or something along those lines XD

it.....is.........AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!! HOLY COW IT'S INCREDIBLE!!!!!!! IT'S THE BEST TRIBUTE I HAVE EVER SEEN!!!! I am glad this pic was made cause like you said what I and many others of us do everyday is no easy task and we do all we can to make the situations as less grim as possible. whether it be a fire, a car accident, a fall or whatever knowing that lives are saved is the biggest thing we can ever be grateful for..also to add this picture will serve as a tribute for all of those who have perished in this year's deadly outbreak of tornadoes and the 5 year anniversary of the Greensburg KS, F5 tornado and the one year anniversary of the Joplin MO, F5 tornado which most of all of us emergency personnel were out there searching through rubble and pulling people out and those who didn't make it so Watashi no kokoro kara kansha SilverRiku. arigatōgozaimas. Anata wa shin'yūdesu.

Do itashimashite Tommy. ^^ I'm extremely relieved you like it, and agreed that this should also be for the tornado victims, as there were many... We've had a lot of tornadoes this year, it's kinda worrisome honestly...Demo, I bet that was hard to go through, glad you guys are still okay! What of your friend from before? is he doing all right even without a house?
