Hey thanks Working, I appreciate that. As always, I had a lot of fun making it. I swore when I first saw CMathewmans entry I thought it was yours for a second. Just your style.

You are getting yourself off to a very nice start at such a young age. dafont.com is an excellent resource, overlays are a powerful tool and matching perspective isn't something everyone can do. great work! I look forward to watching you progress on here.

This came out really nice. How did you do this? Mind sharing?

With your feet on the air and your head on the ground

Try this trick and spin it, yeah

Your head will collapse

But there's nothing in it

And you'll ask yourself

Where is my mind?

No more rope and too much dope

She's lying on the bed

Angels pacing, gently placing Roses 'round her head

And I don't know what to do

Now that pink has turned to blue

Now I don't know what to do

Now that pink has turned to blue

Hüsker Dü - Pink Turns To Blue (yü tübe)

lyrics

Yes, that is the singer Pink. hahaha
