(2007) 5 1/2" x 10 1/2" Pencil on Paper. Processed and framed in Photoshop.

Godric Gryffindor with his lion and sword. Again, the magical object is not aligned with the traditional symbol of the wand, but the elemental alignment is spot-on for Fire.

Thank you! I really loved drawing him. I'm a leo myself, so I just love these magnificent beasts!

Well of course. That is Gryffindor. Who's your model?

It's really a mishmash, I used a random portrait of a guy from a google search, because I liked the face, but he was bald, so he's wearing another random reference guy's hair. And after he was done I suddenly decided that he really reminded me of the actor Christopher Lambert who played the original Highlander... But that happened completely by accident...

Um, he's prettier than Lambert.... :D
But yeah, I did have a fixation on Highlander back when I had a fixation on Queen (and their theme song for Highlander, "Princes of the universe").
And yes, one can't tell that that's somebody else's hair. :thumbsup: :wow:

Well, that's a very nice compliment! And yeah, I loved the movie, too! Actually I quite liked the badass goth guy with the huge sword who was after the Highlander for most of the film, he was just so unihibited about being a people-slaughtering psychopathic menace to society...

Ha ha, the Kurgan, yes? What an amazing guy. Only bad thing about him was that he was too rough with the chicks :lol: but apart from that he was a real cool badass. What a face! He was a guard in "the Shawshank Redemption", remember?
