Wow. I guess this comment is kind of belated, but...wow. That is one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. Not only are the characters portrayed amazingly well, the painting work is beautiful. I absolutely love it.
Anybody else hear The Peanuts theme running through their head, or is that just ME?! Why is it the great one's leave before you've had enough of them? Or, is that one of the things that make them great?
Both. The greats leave their legacies behind so that others can learn from them. As for the Peanuts theme coursing through, here's a remix of it ("Linus & Lucy"/"Let's Have a Party") [ [link] ]
