"Pilot of the Airwaves" -- finally finished!
This artwork is a tribute to the decades before the internet, when a friendly late-night DJ and a transistor radio were often a teenager's most faithful companions.
The backgrounds were painted in watercolor, Gouache paint was used for the characters, and Staedler Mars Lumograph Black Pencils added the finishing touches.

I agree. And Wolfman Jack was a real DJ. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zAagySB7SU
Great art! And a looong time since i heard that song. thanks! Memories.. I build modern broadcast electronics at my day job. (Thot I wuz retired. They dragged me back out!) Tho the equipment in that picture is also familiar. (I've worked on that age (and older) of equipment before. I is old...)
We even have some posters of a 1950's radio station setup. Way cool! Loved the old AM DJs. Wolfman Jack was a bit south of me, but we had a few of our own. (Hmmm. And that odd thing Marsha's holding to her head with the wire... Know i've seen that somewhere before.:)
(BTW, Very nice job on the equipment. I'm even thinking that left turntable might be a Rec-O-Kut. (SP?) Very good.)
Fun pic! Thanks for sharing.. Hope whomever ends up with this loves it! I'd hang it at work, of course! Be safe! Stu

This also reminds me of the many nights listening to WLS on my old General Electric transistor radio. Took it wherever I went. I also listened to CBS Radio Mystery Theater on it that came on a local station. Used up many a 9V battery doing so. Oh the memories. THANK YOU for drawing this.
