On my way back from SPX, I flew from Washington, DC to Minneapolis, then from Minneapolis to Portland. On my flight between DC and Minneapolis, I shit you not, this is exactly what the First Class flight attendant looked like! I could not stop staring at him during the three hour flight and wanted to be in first class so bad. Even as the connoisseur of facial hair that I am, I have NEVER seen anything like this guy’s facial hair combo. I was absolutely speechless and spent the final 20 minutes of the flight planning what I was going to say to him should I get a chance to as I was exiting the aircraft. I ended up with the classic “Great facial hair,” to which he responded, “thanks, you too.” I drew this diagram in my sketchbook during my Minneapolis layover, and decided it needed some color.

In other news, I made it into Hire An Illustrator’s HAI! #03 promo book! My “Morning Commute: 50,000 BC” illustration is featured along with pieces by 59 other artists. Check out a small preview of the book below or click here to see it at a much larger size.
