When I was making my profile picture I couldn't find the right one. The ascii arts were either too big & detailed or too small & simple. Eventually I had come across https://dribbble.com/shots/14677-cole-as-ascii-art . However Cole barely couldn't fit so I started adjusting it and changed it more and more. i think it might be my first ascii picture, which is still heavily inspired by someone's work

post scriptum: for this post I tried making another drawing of Cole. Really good that I don't need to come up with a name for him. I guess I'll add the dog now and then in my messages
