Two for the sighs of one

Yudaina

Little Micky - wip

Face number 12 and 13. Yudaina and Little Micky. Still not feeling it, but that's not going to stop me from trying... whilst screaming internally throughout.

Yep, still handsome

Yudaina

Unfortunately I was detained elsewhere tonight, so not a lot of time for painting. So for face number 5, a rough and ready Yudaina, as always based on holder of my heart Hiroyuki Sanada. 

Hello handsome

Yudaina

Face number four. Hiroyuki Sanada. Holder of my heart and the face of my nomad king Yudaina. And yes, I really do think he's the most beautiful man in the world.

Through the dark

Yudaina

Done. Young Yudaina in the dark... based on my heart squeeze Hiroyuki Sanada.

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.

Sleeping King

Yudaina

Another one of Yudaina who seems to have become my June guy of choice :-) I'm suffering really badly from hay fever at the moment and the tablets are making me really sleepy, so it seemed appropriate to have one of the nomad King sleeping ;-) As always based on beautiful Hiroyuki Sanada <3

Juuuune

Yudaina

Another guy for June. This time it's a somewhat pensive Yudaina - as always based on Hiroyuki Sanada whom I love an adore :-)

Hello middle distance my old friend

Yudaina - wip

Face number 17 for the 29 faces. Yudaina, mildly displeased.

Here's lookin' at you, middle distance

Yudaina - wip

Wip of face number 16 for the 29 faces. Having another go at Yudaina. Based on Hiroyuki Sanada whom I adore <3 :-)

Dim the lights

Yudaina - wip

Still a wip. But I just had to take some time this evening to sort out the lighting a bit. It was annoying me something awful.

Cranky King

Yudaina - wip

Yudaina with frowny face. Probably because the lighting is all over the place. Wip of number 23.

Rough 'n' kinda ready...

Yudaina - wip

Yes... it's him again. Another wip of Yudaina. Face number 22. Woot woot.
