. . . so I clicked the tag and jumped about a foot. Whoa, hello there.

This is gorgeous (if terrifying) work! The cropped, up-close composition makes it that much more intense, and I mean . . . you've really brought across the character. Vividly. (He just has so much . . . presence. I think some of the wrong-hotness in the film comes from Tim Curry's voice/carriage, but there's a little something here still.) Marvelous job on his features, and the shading of his red skin! The color is generally complex and beautiful (so detailed - omg his teeth). I love the shine on his throat, and the misty swirl through his claws. Wow.

This is nightmare-inducing. And I mean that in the most complimentary way.

I wanted to start a comment, "Let me be the first to say that you have made something really fucking scary, congratulations!" but I spent too many minutes staring enraptured at that little piece of visible gum, and was beaten to the punch.

Let me (hopefully) be the third to say you have made something really fucking scary. Congratulations! Way to reclaim sparkles for the realm darkness.

Seriously, I am all about those gums.

This is awesome! I love the detail on his horns and claws!

My reaction can be summed up as:

"OOOH! SHINY!!"

Eeek. EEEK.

That crop/close-up is crazy effective. And the different shades of red and orange in the skin are beautifully done. But every time I scroll back up, his stare kind of freaks me out all over again -- seriously, I can cause myself a little uncomfortable tug at the base of my spine just by scrolling back up and looking into his eyes -- so I think I need to be closing this tab now, haha. Fantastic work!

I am so completely in love with the texture and colour work in this. It's basically one colour, but there's so much variation and ... guh.

SWEET JESUS

That is fucking astonishing! I didn't expect anything in particular, so the up-close intensity and absolutely goddamn PERFECT recreation of this character caught me off-guard. I can't even think of what to say to you about this piece, but it made my heart pound faster and I keep scrolling up to take in the burning-hot stare and the contemptuous lip-curl and then scrolling down to recover. Even though I didn't find the dude hot in Legend (I think I was pretty young when I watched it, so I mostly registered TERROR) the dirty-bad-wrong sensuality totally comes through in this picture. I am seriously amazed.

Excellent, startling work!

Yikes! I don't know the fandom but this monster looks scary. The close-up is very intense, he seems to look right at you.

Oh wow, that is amazing!

HOLY CRAPOLA. I don't know the movie at all, so I had no idea what was waiting behind the cut and uh... I sure as hell didn't expect this! But oh man, this is simply awesomely scary and creepy-- I keep having to scroll up for short bursts before having to scroll down again, but this is intensely well done, wow *_*

[identity profile] dramedy.livejournal.com 2009-12-16 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)
wow, that was an interesting jump cut to GIANT RED TIM CURRY. Awesome. the details, the work that obviously went in to this. just. WOOOOOW.

Holy CRAP. Never seen the movie but this is phenomenal work. I'm in awe of your coloring and detail. *___*

OMG, WOW!

This is just absolutely amazing! The colors and details, I could stare at this for ages. You've captured an intensly frightening yet somewhat alluring feel to this piece that leaves me in awe. You are amazingly talented mystery artist, I feel so lucky to be gifted with such a fantastic piece of art!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Yeah, I keep coming back to this. Three times today. AWESOME. Intense, vivid, and soul-wrenching.

LOLOLOL

Oh, mystery artist, I love you. And that's before I even saw the terrific job you did! I particularly love all the gleaming points and the sharp claws are fabulous and really well spaced -- you show a lot without us seeing it. Awesome!

Holy crap! This is amazing!

Really amazing work, wow!

Never have sparkles been so genuinely terrifying. I'd say a good chunk of bad wrong hot came across, mystery artist, but now I need to hide.
