Tuco, The Cat
Once Upon a Time I cat sat for 6 months. A gravy job, let me tell you. I sketched a loosey-goosey book of line drawings of Tuco, the cat. Cats are great subjects to draw. And Tuco's a fun cat, fab-u-lous cat.
The last few days I've scanned photocopies of the original. Bless Photoshop for the ability to clean up a lot of dirt, etc from the page. Still at 200+ pages, it's quite the cleanup job. I do about 10 pages/hour.
Whatever happens to the final PDF document, it's nice to have a digital record as paper gets lost and damaged - as I've already found.

I be digging Tuco, Big TIME!
What adventures does Tuco get up to? Does he solve crimes? Or is his super power helping the work day go faster?
I WANT MORE TUCO!!!

Funny stuff.
The drawing you see on the cover was the last and only one I did without actually looking at Tuco. Guess it's a sum-up of my idea of Tuco after many many drawings. It's quite in character, actually. No one drawing looks the same - for good or bad.
Yes, Tuco did get into some adventures. I'm contemplating putting the story down alongside the sketches. It would be a nice momento if nothing else.
