Dear community, my advanced google & hnsearch skills having failed me despite my best efforts to remember the appropriate keywords, I have this unusual request:
Approx. one month ago (order of magnitude) someone posted here a link to a one-page comic strip. It pictured the evolution of an artist on his way to mastery of his drawing skills.
From what I remember, the artist had "a good taste" (watched Calvin & Hobbes – &/or star wars as a child), persevered where most people stopped until finally achieving the quality he always aimed for – but never attained – the previous years. (final picture of the guy behind his computer screen with a graphics tablet).
Does someone remember this post ?
I'd really like to retrieve this submission as I wanted to share it with a friend who just started publishing his drawings on the web.
FYI, if you're into the drawing thing, there are some related posts that I ended discovering today: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3032389

Stunning improvements. By the way, you should definitely check my friend's work there -> http://pierrefeytis.tumblr.com/ – and maybe I'll take the freedom to present his company here, he's a motion designer & associate at http://vodcreation.eu/ they do short movie clips to present your startup/business/service/event if that's what you need (working essentially in France, Paris).
Enjoy your week end :)
