7-2: Father

Fun fact: There are totally painting elephants. Not half bad, really, they're just no Da Vinci.

So, here's Gary's dad. He's not a bad guy, really, but I'm sure he's made his mistakes like anybody, and Gary's dissimilar interests often leave him grasping for something to keep him in his son's life.

Not his fault, or Gary's. Gary just has very… eclectic tastes.

I think I already mentioned that I had some difficulty with Gary's parents. I actually had his dad outright bad, then I thought… meh, too common in characters. So I made him just a bit balding.

Want to know the worst part of this comic? Even thought his was fairly easy copypasta, I had to draw one thing I hate most of all.

COUCHES. I freaking hate couches. As you can see, I'm not very good at drawing them, and it's frustrating, trying to make them look natural and realistic.

I'm so glad I didn't have to draw it more than once.
