Ben Hur

Detective Alex Tardio
'Detective Alex Tardio... 19th Precinct... Robbery.'

Let's just say it was instant infatuation on my part. And just when I thought I couldn't love William Fitchner any more.Also... this may just be my first venture into pastels.

Have you hugged your Hiroyuki today?

Yudaina
I was going to do something completely different last evening when I suddenly thought of Hiroyuki Sanada... I do that a lot... so here's a little sketch from last night of Yudaina :-)

Life's little mysteries

Sherlock
I don't think he will ever cease to fascinate me :-)
Makes me think of that Lovin' Spoonful song... somewhat paraphrased.

'And he is still a mystery to me, I thought I'd grow up gracefully, I'd understand him thoroughly... but he's a mystery to me.'

Sparkly sporran

Tirion of Awel Glyn

Tirion
It's done... it's finally, finally done... man that took ages... I just couldn't decide what to do with the belt... That's all it was... the blinkin' belt. So I figured... if in doubt... add some bling ;-) Lord Tirion of Awel Glyn based as always on magical Mansai Nomura :-) <3

Lights out

Yudaina - wip
So thanks to one of the lovely ladies in the 29 faces group mentioning my favourite subject... well I just kinda had to ;-) Still gotta a few finishing touches to do, but here's a pre for now. A young Yudaina brooding in the dark... brooding... brooding.... broooding ;-) Based of course on my most favourite of favourites - Hiroyuki Sanada.

William

William
So after I had been to see Independance Day 2 my brother phoned and in conversation said 'Don't you just love that guy who got sworn in as president in the end?' Why yes... yes I do. Also, I've wanted to paint him for ages. The oh-so-very-handsome William Fitchner <3

Pectoralis major-ly problematic

Tirion
Made myself finish this today... I hate painting chests... I mean, I love chests, they're beautiful... but they're so difficult to paint, trying to hint at the bone structure underneath without overdoing it. Also... I kept the cape. I'm calling this one of Tirion done. As always based on magical Mansai Nomura :-)

Shiny satin

Tirion - wip
Tirion again... because I can ;-) And because I love Mansai Nomura's face :-) Not quite finished... also... not sure about the cape... so a wip for now.
