Description
following a trip to the tailors (and the barbers), and having survived a surreal assasination attempt involving apple pies, 'Gentleman Vyse' leaves ready to exact revenge on all who oppose him, yes even those b******s on facebook...i was in a foul mood so i drew a 'tenacious dave', even so the gold piping and red cumberbund show my true colours as 'a gentleman'.
it also reflects the colours of my alter ego the Black Knight (aks and i shall tell no lies) and my family heraldry (clan bell - scotland)
anycase, this is me, and how i feel!
hope you like the background; i went to town on this one:
ww1 newspapers
old texts (faustus and his scholars/the story of sir gareth)
etchings (artillery medals and fencing)
worn table top
scrunched up paper
etc etc etc

Hmmm... yes, Vyse isn't having a good day, is he? Pity the assasination attempt failed... I'll have to be more cunning next time.
I really like the colours in this one though! Grays rock my world.

yeah? seems to be my colourscheme in real life! though they do say: black black and more black is the mark of a man who can't dress... wonder if i'm that bad?
yes you'll have to try hard to pin the general! hes skinny - harder to hit!

Ah, no, I'd have to disagree with that. I think black's really quite stylish... with a few browns thrown in here and there.

"Yes even those b******s on facebook..." that part made me laugh!! Thanks for trying to add me to your friends list there; I don't have a facebook account yet (because I'm not in college yet), so I wasn't able to add you. As soon as I get one, however, I will add you!!

The background is very nice indeed. I do like this peice, but beware of your heads. His is a bit small, and off center on the neck and as is the body to the feet.. He's tilted so much to the left...you could actually use photoshop to rotate him around a wee bit. The form of the body is very very good. Quite believable. .. I'm such a critic I appologize.. but what I am trying to say is that it is a very nice peice showing much time and skill.
I wonder... what program did you use?

yeah i noticed that about his head myself, too lazy though! lol. its good old photoshop for the backgrounds and colouring, but free hand drawing for the rest! im really glad you liked it! i find that when im engrossed in a picture - drawing it - i forget about things like that! i'll sort it out if i have time!
excellent name and icon by the way, very apt for this deviation!!!

Thank you, very much. And yes, your art is incredible, and I can honestly say that I do the exact same thing... with the crooked thing.

Ha ha! Oh, have you seen "Enemy at the Gates"? Remember Major Konig... he smokes the best cigarettes, wears leather gloves while at work, and snipes in his full Nazi uniform rather than combat gear... *Whispers* Sharpshooter Jones... Jones.. inspirations...
So yeah, that's wehere a lot of it came from.
