I know I wrote this post, but apparently I deleted it at some point instead of posting it. Oops.
Here goes:
This is my cousin and good friend Erik, who readers might recognize from my Texas adventures. He's a great drinking buddy, and travel companion, and overall swell guy, who happens to look good in uniform too. This is drawn from an official looking photo, and I got scared I'd ruin it if I tried to ink it so I decided to leave it in pencil. It was fun to draw but the uniform details was a pain in the butt :)
