I was on CAF when this beauty popped up for sale, then it was gone in about ten minutes. Fortunately for y'all, I'm quicker than the Flash when it comes to dowloading scans.... feast your eyes on this:
It was done in 1980.
Here's the original pict before increased the contrast, someone more skilled in photoshop may be able to get a better image from the original below:

Ahh, the Horta. What is it about the old image that causes the pain? The differences I see in 1980s technique and today lie in how texture is done. But 30+ years of experience grants you quite a bit with how to differentiate hair, metallic surfaces and cloth.

Thanks for the good laugh this morning John. I think we all have that reaction when we see our older work. it's part of that journey of never being pleased with our own work.

JB,
Is there any way you can you can further explain what you see in your drawing skills then that causes you pain today? To me, the anatomy all seems correct, the shading seems good, etc.
