Description I always imagined Geldoblame having an affinity with nature. After all, he had a huge vegetable garden inside of his house.

I don't think I'm ever going to get over this character. I've been drawing him constantly for three years and it still is massively enjoyable for me.

There are some imperfections here, but I'd rather not address them. Some things are better left unmentioned, right?
After all, it is just a sketch I made during a lengthy critique.

No, he was just growing (and being) fruit fit for an emperor.

Thanks for sharing that video. I didn't realize that "Nature Boy" was the title of that song. It was very beautiful. I hadn't heard the original before, only the updated version from Moulin Rouge.

Thank you very much.

Lots of songs were "modernized" for Moulin Rouge. Get this: Lady Marmalade was a disco tune. o_O

And no prob. <3

haha David Bowie popped into my head when I saw this, from Moulin Rouge. Kiesu already said that though. XD

He looks so peaceful! I like the general tone, with the yellow sunlight filtered through the trees. He's found a little canopy of trees to hide out in, and he was just so comfy he fell asleep. aww

Oh, gosh, me too! But "Nature Boy" was originally sung by Nat King Cole. Still, both versions are pretty.

Immediately thought of Geldoblame from the very thumbnail. <3 I'll never get tired of him, either.

That's what I've always thought, too! He totally gardens in live over 9000 TA drafts, too. But what I really love about Geldoblame's room is that one pot with the writing in it. You could pull so many things out of that.

Lastly...is that the Verus Scrapbook I spy~ <3

Why, yes it is.

I want to see these drafts. I really need my Geldo fix.

I will spiff them up and send them to you soonish, bb!

Hm, for some reason I think of Geldoblame every time I listen the song Nature Boy form Moulin Rouge soundtrack. Your title made me giggle for it : )

Lovely soft piece of art you have here. You made him look so adorable. : )
