this has been my favorite cartoon strip ever. &lt;br /&gt;
It&amp;rsquo;s been long since I did anything in ink, let alone watercolors, but
decided to emulate this in photoshop and see how well I could do it. I
ended up creating about 5 new brushes that mimic ink &amp;amp; pen and
watercolor. I think the final result ended up being a bit more
overworked than how I would have done it in watercolor. But that&amp;rsquo;s the
thing about going digital it&amp;rsquo;s always hard to finish something up
because you can keep working right over it, and create more than one
version.</description><media:content url="http://community.imaginefx.com/fxpose/system404s_portfolio/images/47936/original.aspx" type="image/jpeg" height="610" width="800" /><media:title>Spaceman Spiff</media:title><media:text type="html">&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://community.imaginefx.com/fxpose/system404s_portfolio/picture47936.aspx" &gt;&lt;img src="http://community.imaginefx.com/fxpose/system404s_portfolio/images/47936/thumb.aspx" alt="Spaceman Spiff" border="0" &gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Spaceman Spiff&lt;/p&gt;I was finally able to get &amp;ldquo;The Complete Calvin and Hobbes&amp;rdquo; collection,
