Either that, or they'll just paint rows of people on the back walls, like the first couple seasons of American Gladiators.

JayJaxon Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 I have been in constant contact with Mr. Okkonen over the past couple of months because I am doing a continuation of his book. I didn't realize he was still drawing stuff. Good for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your concepts have been great, so I can only expect the same quality. Glad hear someone picked up the ball on this. Look forward to getting a copy.
