I started with the eyes on top and then I was going to make it an eagle, but then I got bored of that so I decided to make a man underneath wearing the eagle as a hat. I figured that had some sort of historical reference to Mayans, Inca, or Aztecs (but I don't know which), but then I decided I didn't feel like that either. So, I outfitted him with traditional Robin Hood attire, and gave him a caucasion complexion. Then for fun I added extra horns. Thats what makes it look like a hippogryph hat.

Great picture and I loved reading how it came about almost as much as the picture itself. :)

This looks like an illustration from a novel about vikings. This is completely different in style than your others. I like this .

staci (Jul 18, 2004)

this is a great colorful rendition of a caucasian wearing a eagle hat..but is his spear tucked behind his ear?
thats amazing

actually its going through his head, killing him instantly. I just have problems drawing things with any sort of perspective or logical relation.

Actually, I love Math, and his brother Logic. They are good friends of mine.

Once, my little brother left an extra-credit math puzzle in my car. It showed a large square made of smaller squares, each of which was a different size. It gave you only the size of the square in the middle and asked if it was possible to get the size of the whole thing (the proportions were intentionally distorted a little so that you couldn't use a ruler). I showed it to a friend who had already graduated and was teaching high school math, and he said it wasn't possible. But I persisted that it was, and figured it out a few weeks later.

I'm flattered that this reminds anyone of Icat's work. It was just a doodle before I went to bed. Maybe soon I'll do a "for real" sky.

whatchoo talkin bout willis?
this is a very 'for real' sky...
the tree has great form and detail; in my opinion it couldnt get any better, even if you spent 3 hours on it
its very painterly and quickies are the best sometimes

I love this!

I love this. I still like to lie lay on my back (whatever) in the grass or on the beach or wherever and look at the clouds. My daughter and I think this looks like you are in the mountains and looking up at the clouds. I have no idea where Dino got math out of that, but I hate math. Strange thing is I always like ppl who are good at it, though. Wonderful picture.

You don't know the whole story though. This poor fella pulled the wings off flies as a child. He loved pizza as he went through his life, and lived in exemplary fashion. However, he never atoned for torturing those poor flies. Hence, he was sent to purgatory, and they make him watch a large , luscious sausage and meatball pizza with extra cheese being made before his eyes, and just when it is finished and the first slice is raised, it turns in to a spam sandwich. The poor poor soul. Great eyes and expression, AND bg D

emmamommalag (Jul 17, 2004)

Yeah, he does look like somebody who'd have done that as a child. He deserves that punishment.

DMV (Jul 18, 2004)

Thanks everyone:) I really like the flames on this one:)

Gigandas (Jul 20, 2004)

You did an awesome job with the texture of his hair on this one.The sunglasses seem to be pretty symmetrical too :P.Did it just happen to be, or did you get that consistent pink scheme going thru this one when you planned it out?I think that's the best part about the pic here.Well done once again :).

Knockoff (Jul 20, 2004)

Oh! This is really cool. Your awesome at realism, Laurael! The hair is great, lot of detail :D

laurael (edited Jul 20, 2004)

The 'pink' scheme was planned...yessirree. I thought it would be an interesting shade for this...lol..
Edit: Thanks KO...you're sweet... :)

concannon (Jul 28, 2004)

My god, this is gorgeous. Really. I wish you would finish it, though right now it has a really nice, pristine simplicity to it. I really really like the eyebrows.
