SKETCHBOOK: "Mascot Makeover"

Last summer, I was sketching in Lawrence, KS while my wife was taking an evening class. I must confess that I have often made fun of her alma mater's mascot...what kind of bird is a Jayhawk, anyway? So I decided to beef it up a bit. The color version above is a photoshop variation of the original sketch below.

(And for any university representative whom I've just made nervous, this is a "parody" for my own amusement and is not intended to be used for any kind of product...unless you want to make an arrangement...but you'll probably have to chat with Marvel Comics, too. No lawsuits please!)
