Pointy eared shenanigans


Face number three. Trying to stay loose.

'And so they march, footfall like thunder, death in their hearts and fire in their eyes.'

And is that blood on his face or tomato pure? We shall never know ;-)

'Tis September

Mission statement for this here 29 Faces: Keep it loose!

Face number one... My nomad king, Yudaina. Based on my most beloved, Hiroyuki Sanada. 'Cause he's brighter than sunshine

This old heart

Micky
... is weak for you.
Little Micky rocking his spangly puffer vest and rainbow sleeves, adding colour to a gloomy day at the airfield.
So, an iridescent puffer vest seemed like a really good idea until I actually started painting it. Did I learn a lot? Yes. Would i do it again? Aaaah!

What a man

A might, mighty good man
Hey gang :-) It's been soooo long since I've had time to do any painting. For various reasons, all of them terribly dull. But here's a little sketch of that mighty, mighty good man to whom most of my heart belongs. ;-)

Waiting to accessorize

Tirion
So, this one of Lord Tirion has been hanging for ages... and I do mean aaaages. And it's still not done. It's getting there, but the lord is not averse to a bit of bling and I am currently stumped trying to design said bling. So for know... here he is is... blingless but still smiling benignly as ever. Enjoy. :-)

Keep talking...

Carth... Kaidan... no wait! Raphael Sbarge
Raphael Sbarge is an actor and film maker who has a delightful habit of regularly turning up in all sorts of tv shows. Which is pretty awesome, because, well so is he.
But before I even knew what he looked like, I knew what he sounded like. Because he is the voice of Carth Onasi. I shall refrain from waxing lyrical, however I can provide a ten page essay on how much I love Knights of the Old Republic should it be required.
And more... he is also the voice of Kaidan Alenko from the Mass Effect trilogy.
On top of all that he just seems like a super neat guy and he has a hella charming smile, so hey, if ever there was a reason to paint him, there we are.

Anyone who knows what love is...

Precious the pilot
Sometimes I wonder why I paint. Sometimes it seems like a rather futile and odd endeavor. Particularly when it makes me want to scream in frustration. And I wonder... why? Why the hell am I doing this... but the answer is really simple... I paint because I can't not. :-)
To put it in the words of Irma Thomas 'Anyone who knows what love is, will understand.'
And speaking of love... here's my first face of the 29 faces and the new year in fact. My pilot, Precious. :-)
