Description The mask was down over his face – that fearsome mask behind which the tethers of sanity slackened. Gone beyond all help, he grew ever haggard & more terrible to look at.
—Civa

Model: Civa (me)

[I have to thank for the mask I’ve featured in this deviation.]
---

Addendum: I have reduced the yellow of the mask, strengthened the contrast, & applied a signature.

For me it tends to be a matter of envisioning my portrayal. Sometimes I'll have an internal conversation in my head, where bits of ideas gradually converge. 

 

Or maybe I'm just crazy.

Country drivers are bad enough here. I don't think I could handle the traffic of a larger city such as yours. Never a traffic jam here.

Lady-of-Slaughter In reply to Onyx-Philomel [2012-06-25 00:50:47 +0000 UTC]

Ha! As I've told a friend of mine: "I'm fucking sick of redneck drivers in their macho trucks who think they know how to drive in the city. I was born and raised in Los Angeles. You wanna play games on the road with me? Fuck you. The closest thing to traffic you've ever seen is a herd of cows in the fucking road. I'll show you what offensive driving is, motherfucker."

Onyx-Philomel In reply to Lady-of-Slaughter [2012-06-25 02:24:25 +0000 UTC]

What's amusing are city dwellers who buy those macho trucks, with no practical purpose in mind. Well, overcompensating for something.

Honestly, I'm surprised rednecks venture anywhere near Los Angeles. is there even a rural area in that city?

And speeding down country roads at night is very tranquil to me. Unless there's a deer ahead.

Lady-of-Slaughter In reply to Onyx-Philomel [2012-06-25 02:51:44 +0000 UTC]

Not really rural areas in the city, of course, but it's surrounded by desert and mountains that could pass for Devil's Rejects territory.

Even here, our deserted road nighttime speeding is hardcore. The best place here for such a past time is in the ultra-upscale neighborhood of Palos Verdes- and the roads there have few streetlights, are composed of mostly hairpin turns and blind curves, and the entire route is only one rickety guardrail away from a straight drop off a rock cliff into the Pacific ocean. I have friends who have done that route at a more than unreasonable speed, late at night, while stoned as fuck. Dunno how they made it out alive, actually.

Onyx-Philomel In reply to Lady-of-Slaughter [2012-06-25 03:00:44 +0000 UTC]

A lovely movie reference.

I wouldn't think of an upscale area as appropriate for nocturnal speeding. In this region, the upscale areas have cops -- asshole cops (I've been pulled over three times, & followed several times).

I wouldn't dare attempt a speedy drive near a cliff, especially if high. Not that I'm a stoner (though I've grown up around so many).

Lady-of-Slaughter In reply to Onyx-Philomel [2012-06-25 03:24:41 +0000 UTC]

Palos Verdes has cops, but not nearly as many as surrounding areas. Probably because the houses are kind of far apart, all set far back from the road, it's a very quiet area. The residents might also find police presence to be unsightly; it wouldn't surprise me. But I know they're around somewhere- just don't get caught, that's all. lol
