Description Am I excited about the upcoming season of the Sopranos that starts March 12th? Me? Oh, well, HELL YEAH!!!! It's better than a X-mas morning humjob covered in chocolate, hundred dollar bills, and videogames!!! I can't hardly wait! Just too bad that this is gonna be the last season... Here's a toast to ya, T.

for those of you with doubts as to wheter this is an actual scratchboard, or who think it may be vector art, here's a link to a closeup before adjusting levels, curves, and cleanup of the final product - [link]

scratchboard, 8"x9"

Damn Ben,so what do you think is Tony a goner? I cannot imagine the show without him,I am pretty bummed over it.
I deleted that journal about the sopranos before I responded to your last comments,but I do remember you were interested in an art trade.
I was thinking after getting the scratchboard I ought to send you a drawing...just not sure what yet....but if you would like a drawing I can send you one.

That would be sweet!

After last night's strange coma dreams and Edie Falco schooling everybody on acting and AJ being a douchebag and Vito's cry for help...what was I saying? Oh yeah, I think the most likely scenario is that he will miraculously come back and see it as a life altering event. It was a good episode, but I hope next week has a little more action.

It will be very interesting to see what happens this final season...it's almost depressing that this indeed the last season. I love this show so much! Great work on the scratchboard board again.

I know what you mean. I can't wait for the season to star, but at the same time I realize it's the last one. sob! Thanks for the fave!

Cool...I love the Sopranos as well,I have been wanting to do a collage drawing for along time and finally found a good reference book.This is very good scratching by the way.Wonder who is going to get whacked this season? Still wish Adriana was back....

ATLbladerunner In reply to choffman36 [2006-01-27 21:38:36 +0000 UTC]

OOh! I would love to see one of your collage pieces for the show! I almost put in Christopher, Paulie, Silvio, and even Big Pussy and Furio, but decided to keep it simple. I have no idea who they're gonna kill off this season, unless Uncle Junior dies, or the end the series with Tony gettin whacked. If that happened I would cry for days! I'm bordering on obsession with that show. And you're right, I'm gonna miss Adriana too (Mrowr!) and I still miss Big Pussy, he was the best!

Right Pussy was the best....I wish I could pick up the Sopranos DVD sets,but they are damn expensive,I have been able to find some single disks for $1 a piece at a local movie joint,but you gotta take what you get and they arent in order which sux.

I've been pretty lucky, I think I've gotten one season every Xmas for the last few years. So far I've got seasons 2,3,and 4. I'm not sure which one is my favorite though. Have you got a favorite episode?

I like several from last season,including Steve Buschemi's demise....I still think Pussy's death was a really good one even though Tony was in the shitter most of it.

I thought last season was great, but a friend of mine thought it was not very good. I think he's crazy. There was at least one point in every episode where my jaw dropped it seems. I also liked the episode from I think the third season when paulie and Christopher take the Russian into the Pine Barrens to kill and bury him, he escapes and they get lost all night. Those poor bastards! I always wonder if we're going to find out what happened to that guy!

Oh yeah that was a great one,didn't Paulie like go animalistic on a sandwich at the end of that one?

LMAO! Yep, and Tony got irritated at him because he had the mayonaisse on this chin. Paulie became such a puss during that episode!

wow...thats really cool. i've never tried scratchboard before. is it hard to do? well, probably not hard for you but for a dunce like me?

ATLbladerunner In reply to lydibugg [2006-01-27 21:44:22 +0000 UTC]

The way I do it it's not too hard really, it's all in the preparation and transfer of the reference and not making any big mistakes. And to be honest, I don't really take full advantage of the medium. Do a google search for Thomas Ott and Patrick Arrasmith and you'll see what it's really capable of. You should give it a try, you might like it!

i will have to try it sometime...it looks fun. i see what you mean about Ott and Arrasmith's work is almost unbelieveable! i don't know if i would have the patience for something like that. thanks for the inspiration...your talent always amazes me.

Shucks, thanks! I know what you mean about their work, I wouldn't have the patience for that either. Looks like way too much planning and little room for mistakes.
