Flying naked men

[kingandy]

Angel I just thought I would share this one. Mr Chris Holland (XLJ) is planning to get a back tattoo, and elected to commission me to draw him one (presumably in some effort to avoid ever having to get it done). This is my latest proposal. Damn him for making me draw feet.

My most enduring memory of The Mary Whitehouse Experience^[1] is their book, The Mary Whitehouse Encyclopedia, for the following entries^[2]:

Feet: The natural enemy of the Artist.

Hands: See Feet.

It remains true to this day.

Boots! Big chunky angelic metal boots, add a pauldron & a strap across the body & all will be well.
Alternativelt, grab me or someone else & get us to lie there and model feet for you.
You may want to look at the arms and hands, adding vambraces may help sort those out.

(Those than can, do; those that can't, critique)

Anyway - looks cool

Don't use ash's feet!!!!
they are the root of all evil.
He was perfectly normal before they came along.

vambraces is a good idea as can be coloured - have you thought about a coloured wing motif? Different colours (possibly red and yellow to match sword and hair.

Except he might look like a dodgy super hero given too much red and yellow and not an angel of justice type.

I'd spend time talking to the subject to get his ideas - or even spend a night drawing the 'finished product' on his back in Biro or marker pen to see what it looks like
