It’s obvious that this rendition was from my sloppy memory… and for some reason I took the liberty of adding braces to his already well-arranged grill. Maybe I had braces at the time? I’m kind of embarrassed at how I drew him and that I don’t even remember who took the photo but I still think it’s kind of cool.

Grey Magazine have just launched issue one in digital form. While the focus at Grey is to make a quality print magazine, they realise that not everyone can get hold of a copy, particularly those outside the UK. This is why Grey have decided to make the magazine available online roughly one month after the print copies are sent out.

Click here for the online version of the first issue. The print version of the second issue is due out in August.
