Wow, nice custom drawings dance robot dance.
How much extra is that? Couldn´t find a info on that.

Thanks.

You gotta ask qu.one about cost when you order from his site. Depends on the level of complexity. The art itself was Adobe Illustrator files that I made and sent to him. Laser etchers like vectors.

Thanks for the info dance robot dance, but you are a professional drawer and I am not.


I took a look at your homepage and especially your second life "Mr.Biggs" caught my
attention. I really like your drawings and as someone who loves "adult" comics and also
works with children I really enjoyed what I saw. Lovely!
Too bad your children comics are in english, otherwise I would have probably bougth some of them for my 4 year old son. But we are German and I tell you, I have a really hard time to find good books for him. 99% is just junk on the market, O.K. maybe 98%

Hey Barik, thanks for the niceness. It's the same here, you know. 99% of what is available for kids is just garbage. But I'm glad you like the MrBiggs dot com stuff.

I took a couple of pics of the cheeks on the MD tonight. These are really swell.

^ That looks awesome!

Looks great! Ordered!

Very sick!

Mmmh nice! I am jealous.

I'm thinking of fashioning some cheeks of my own... does anyone know the max depth for the screw-holes in the side of the MD? don't want to risk damaging anything inside the unit by going too deep.

I guess that as long as the screw thread is 3 or 4mm longer than the thickness of the cheeks then that should be sufficient?

that's good to know about the 4-40s! i went by the Elektron site :^)

And just want to say that I am moving as fast as possible to get these done! It's hard since this is something I do on the side. Thanks!

I made some stainless steel ones. The material was 16swg (around 1.6mm) thick and the holes countersunk. I think i used M3 x 5mm csk screws. Your definitely right in your assumption that screws will interfere with the internals if they are too long.
