#91 Bringin the news!

I've been 'interning' at an online "newspaper" of sorts, Mondokio.
I certainly have learned a lot in only the couple weeks that have passed!  I have to really consider my time limit and medium I'm using to create the look I want.  It's been hard for some of these because I'm accustomed to spending a week at least on  illustrations, soooo less than a day been an adjustment! haha also, they have to be in black and white.
