PvP Guest Strip

Scott Kurtz has been under the weather recently, and has been using guest strips created by other cartoonists. I've had the idea for this strip for awhile now, ever since he did a series of strips about Scratch reading Garfield in the newspaper, so I thought it'd be a good time to finally draw it. I took too long however, as Kurtz has recovered and has no need for guest strips anymore. *SIGH* I sent it to him anyway...

I tried to recreate the art style of the Garfield strip as accurately as possible, while keeping Scratch in Kurtz's style. I felt the point of the strip wouldn't have come across as well if I had drawn them in another style. It was allot of fun, especially coloring it, and I wanna do cartooning more often.
