    This painting is a work of heart. You saw that, right? Hahahaha, hahaha, haha, ehem, it did not work? Well shiiiiiiii-
    Anyhow. I've been through a roller coaster painting this. I don't quite remember to be exact, but if I recall so-so correctly, I would say I've been drawing this for a couple of weeks. Two maybe? As you can see the main leitmotif is The Walking Dead. I drew it while you were playing the Second Season that just came out, but as you can gather, it took me way more for it (the drawing itself) to be featured in the art intro of your gameplay videos.
    The whole "the making of it" process made me highly conflicted. In a weird and funny way. On one hand drawing you and the best characters from S2 of TWD was great. Drawing the curves, the tiny details and ornaments, the combination of colors and reaching a perfect nuance. On the other hand, it was painful. I was working on my ordinary BenQ PC along with a hand wrecking ordinary mouse on a Windows program burningly similar to Microsofts Paint but with just a little more good features and gadgets you can use. My eyes hurt because of the computers brightness and at one point everything literally started melting (only in my mind). BUT, even after such a bizarre train of feelings running on my nerves, I finally finished it. And I loved how it turned out. I gave everything and all of me. I put my heart and soul into this, because I love the story of the game, I love the strong bond we share with the characters and last but not least - I love you, bro! You've been not only an amazing youtuber, but an awesome person as well. I have something to tell you and I need you to remember it:

    You are one of those few people who are truly honest with the people around him. You compromise, tolerate, work your butt off, try to satisfy us, just so we will be happy with the content you are uploading. Sometimes when I watch the videos of the day you have uploaded I couldn't help but wonder "Do you ever catch a break?". I know that the whole process of filming, recording, playing, working on the videos, uploading is unbelievably exhausting, but you keep your head up and you move on and continue climbing and it hurts me watching. You do so much, so much just so we will be happy, spend extra time on videos, just so we will be satisfied with the topic, gameplay, length of video. And lately you've been uploading a lot, along with story driven videos, which is even more work. I don't know how you do that. This clearly shows us how dedicated you are, what you would do for us. How much you'll risk, how much time you'll take only for us. You are so kind, so sweet, you are really a good person and what you get in return is terrible. A lot of the bros aren't thankful for what you do and this makes you helpless and you fell bumped out and turned down. Like we betrayed you, which is true. This happens. And it isn't fair in any way. So, what I'm saying to you right now is something I've been dealing with since I learned that the world isn't the prettiest flower. You'll never get full approval of what you are doing, even if you are the best person, the kindest, the most honest, the one that will do everything for our sake. There will always be people who'll try to turn you down for what you are doing and who you are because they seek for attention. Or they may be just bad people. The world is kept fixed on the most fundamental thing - the equilibrium. Bad can't live without good and vise versa. So, the only thing we good people could do is.. Try to keep our chins up. Do our thing and look at those who will appreciate it. Meanwhile, Felix, you deserve to breathe. Go on a vacation, don't upload for a couple of weeks. You are not a robot, you are a human being. You need to live. I think that there are a lot of us who will understand you and there are a lot of us who think the same way as me. You are amazing in what you do and great at being the person you are the today. Everyone who knows you personally is lucky to have you as a friend by their side. Tho, let's be honest. I've never seen you, and I still feel thankful for knowing that a person like you exists. So, that was a big monologue hahaha. This whole thing got diverse, didn't it? Anyway, here's my drawing, hope you like it. I know that you don't really look exactly like yourself on this art, but hey, I tried :D

    Good luck bro and stay awesome as always! :)
