for those who know me...Now ya just knew I would not learn a new technique and not have to try it on a critter...didn't ya?  But I have to admit I cheated.  I drew the outline out on paper and scanned it into my comp then sized it down. Next, using a pixel technique, filled it all in.  Took long time. If anyone wants to try to pixel this your self  I have included the outline below.  this is actually just a part of the picture.

 

 here is the outline

 

 

Have fun...my verdict is still out on pixeling.

 

Love ya

Robin
