A quick Cowboy Bebop woodblock print. This is Spike Spiegel, as seen in the show's iconic opening sequence. My last print took forever to complete, so I wanted a quick one before moving on to the next big project. This one's only two colors, on 6x8" blocks.

I've been remiss in sharing progress updates for the Gurren Lagann woodblock print, but I finally finished printing it a few weeks ago. Here are some photos. 6 blocks (12 faces); 24 colors/impressions; 200ish hours.
