My own private Hell, would be, playing poker for eternity and every hand would be Deuce-Seven. The worst hand in poker.Tech Notes...I actually shot my hands with a digital camera to get this angle. I than sketched the assorted characters with pencil. I scanned that drawing and sketched it in Illustrator in full color. I did the background seperately and I liked it so much I decided to make the Poker Players monochromatic with the hell background behind them...It turned out ok, I like it.
