To bad the movie camera was not invented two thousand years ago, it would be amazing to view the history of the world in video format.

Walking the streets of New York in the 1920′s was putting your life on the line :) Also, you might get to see some famous people in this film, enjoy!

Who’s the famous person walking on the other side of the cab at about 3:10 into the video. ;)

To me this is a real honor and a privilege since I have high respect of O as an awesome artist and person.

If you want to see a great illustrator and webcomic, you need to check out Commissioned. Right now O is running the Commissionathlon which is a series of commissioned work in which he videos his commissioned illustration as he creates it, great stuff. He also comments on what he is doing and why he’s doing it during his videos, which is a great source of information for aspiring and veteran illustrators a like. So if you want to learn some things about illustration, then please visit his sight daily, I do! You can also hear O as a weekly co-host on the highly popular podcast “ExtraLife Radio” which is one of my all time favorites by the way.

Thanks again O,

Steve
