I've always had an obsession for devon aoki. Ever since a complete and total stranger approached me at a party and told me I look like her! (I'm flattered to this day!) I also like her brother Steve. And the aparicio sketches are brilliant!

It's great to have interesting-looking models like the lovely Devon working again, instead of another cookie-cutter type.
