Just a warm up here, every now and then it's nice to take a little break and draw people with their clothes on. This guy is from an old anime favorite of mine called Cowboy Bebop. I used to be a pretty huge anime fan, and I wouldn't say I've outgrown it. I still try out a new one on Netflix every now and then, but for me there was sort of a "golden age" of anime that has passed. I've yet to watch a new anime that could grab me like Outlaw Star or Evangelion or Full Metal Panic did. But I'm still optimistic that another classic will come along someday. Because if you're like me and you love animation but don't care for sugar-coated stories aimed at kids, our Japanese friends will hook you up.
