Right, so I pulled out of the previous GFX round due to not being able to finish on time. Since then I've been working on the image on-and-off and now it's finished only about a week late.

The picture shown below is half the size, the fullsize one can be found by clicking on the picture.

The full resolution pic (1280xs1024) is low quality...the high quality version is 1.1Mb and doesn't fit on photobucket xD Lame. Except I feel justified with the size...this was hand-drawn from start to finish.

I should have tidied up the sketchlines more, but wasn't actually intending to spend this much effort on it. Meh.

I 'member Strop...back when you were running a Doctors Threadergury. Those were the days!

Gratz Strop...good luck in your medicinal endeavours.

Oh, and...umm....don't come to SA, the medical system is rather...flawed...at the moment...but yea...

You're still a bogan...

So know were gonna see the Dr. Strop character running around a AG trying to find patience? Cenere seems to sustain alot of injuries particularly hand injuries, neck stress and headaches...

I have actually consulted Strop a good amount of times on my head aches, wrist pains and other joint pains. Sadly there have been about as much result out of it as there have been with my doctor, but he is doing well enough. Perhaps we will meet in person one day, and he can examine me properly.

You must wonder if it one of those psychological dilemmas where the mind creates pain. Perhaps we could name it Ceneritis or RCD, Repetitive Cenere Disorder, where by repeating things that once caused you pain physically will force the mind to literally hurt yourself.

"Eyes front, soldier." Haha that made me smile. I wish I could draw that weapon; I have a friend into sniper rifles who would like a drawing of that for his birthday.

And I'm sure he'd be very willing to do so...

Perhaps so. He might figure out why I have those random pains, would probably prove a point of "Strop is awesome doctor".

Finally a doctor... seems like he was in there forever, although I do remember some pictures he drew during exams I think.

Thanks guys, I actually didn't know that everybody was posting here, coz I went overseas and by the time I got internet this thread had been buried!

A real-life consultation would be nice (for diagnostic purposes), but I know a few people who have a similar issue, and my feeling is that what we really need right now on the topic is better research, because we're kinda stuck with symptom control that "may or may not work". After all, headaches suck!

Okay, to keep this sorta on topic, I'm rehashing something I drew and posted in the WoM thread.

isn't wrist pain normal for someone who uses a keyboard alot? i've read that keyboards aren't healthy for your hands... its on the back of some of them actually as a potential health hazard... so an avid gamer who uses a keyboard alot might succumb to such a pain b/c of over use... (is it carpal tunnel?)... u've prob been told that before...

is that a picture of a horse? i think it is... but (not knocking ur art) the face might be seen as having a more bovine influence. usually you see people with a more canine'esque infatuation. I like it... it made me both lawl and go "wow" at the same time. Great drawing Doctor Strop

I can see where you're coming from on that. With the top of the head and ears not visible, some cartoon horse heads look like cow heads, but then again cartoon cow heads tend to have exaggerated brow ridges and noses, so I guess it goes around!

You sound like you've visited the furry subculture, indeed the land of a plethora of profligate foxes and wolves.

Well, I do use a keyboard a lot. It is the tool of my trade, so I pretty much have to. The problem here is that it does not seem to be what causes it.
More so, because it is not only wrist pains, but finger pains, elbow pains, shoulder, ankle, knee... Let's keep it a joint pains, eh.
Which is very annoying, especially when a wrist pain kicks in while I am lifting a plate or something. Happened not long ago. Was unpleasant.

Anyway.
Strop, the Strip-legs look odd. Very, very awkward.
