The King; Legal Ducks

Update: Allow me to introduce... The King: (Through and through inspired by the same-named character in Mark Twain's original story)




And here're the legal eagles ducks:





J. and A. Drake. Lawyers from Duck, Duck & Waterfowl.

Those two drakes are very, very loosely inspired by two real life lawyers. A former elementary school classmate of me and his associate. (Well, they, the real ones, don't look or act like ducks, of course. They just have, hopefully, a good sense of humor. At least in this case...)

  1. Great drawings as usual, but what pencil do you use for clean up? I can see that it is a Faber Castell clutch pencil, but what hardness of lead do you use? Thanks!

  9. Schön kauzig, die beiden - und mit Gimmicks, das mag ich. Man könnte sie eigentlich auch zusammen in einen Mantel mit vier Ärmeln stecken.
