BAMF Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 And as I mentioned in the other thread, Marilyn Manson. Or maybe Eminem or George Carlin. LOL. I LOVE your Freud.Thank you, Kori. Marilyn Manson IS on the list, and I would do a wicked job for him. You will love it. ;)Yeeeeessssssssssss!!!! What era are you going to do him in, do you know? He has many looks...like Madonna or David Bowie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BAMF Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 (edited) It's really hard to say what look is best to paint, maybe you should collage them . He's had 5 or 6 different "eras." Here are some pictures from each era, earliest to latest:Portrait of an American Familyhttp://mansonusa.com/img/?src=/photo/promo/89-95/61.jpgAntichrist Superstarhttp://mansonusa.com/img/?src=/photo/promo/96-97/90.jpgMechanical Animalshttp://mansonusa.com/img/?src=/photo/promo/98-99/5.jpgHoly Woodhttp://mansonusa.com/img/?src=/photo/promo/00-02/36.jpgGolden Age of Grotesque (I always fancied this era...he is the most handsome here, in my opinion--although I'm not sure that's what you'd be going for )http://mansonusa.com/img/?src=/photo/promo/03-04/128.jpgRecentlyhttp://mansonusa.com/img/?src=/photo/promo/04-05/31.jpgSorry I couldn't directly post the pictures...they would have taken too much space anyway.I also have to suggest J.D. Salinger. My angry teenage heart is just dying to see it. Edited October 29, 2006 by Kori Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Pross Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Manson would be very easy and fun to do. I will have to do him with extra exaggeration, but don’t try this at home. I am a trained professional. Hey, I'm still an angry pissed off man...started in my teens, too. I let it out creatively though. Victor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAMF Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 :devil: He's such a DEMON! I'm excited to see your version of him. I just take my anger out on the people crowding up the hallways at my school. :shifty: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peri Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 (edited) Anyone...What personality would you like to see painted? I have 2007 planned out to do many paintings ...>>Larry Flynt for exposing the puritanical and anti freedom feminist movement as having more in common with the religious right than those who advocate for liberty.Ooh, ooh, ooh, I've got one! I've got one! Camille Paglia! She helped make me what I am today--she's actually the one who started turning me away from the rather politically correct, leftist mindset I carried away from college! "Sexual Personae" changed my LIFE! Edited October 31, 2006 by Michael Stuart Kelly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Pross Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 (edited) Peri, Camille Paglia! Sure. Did you know that every suggestion you make regarding what Icon I’m to render, you obligate yourself to buy a product that will have the image on it? Or else to buy copies of Icons and Idols [the book] for family and friends? Hee-hee. :devil: Edited October 31, 2006 by Victor Pross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victor Pross Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs.

Rich Engle Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 By far the absolute best Thompson rendering ever. And there's been a lot. Absolutely fan-freaking-tastic, Victor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Pross Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Thanks, Rich. Send me your address and I'll get a print off to ya. Freakish and creepy! I can see that my Charles Buckowski is getting mixed reviews—mostly critical feed-back from bukowski.net. Our very own Mick posted it and has defended me as a “brilliant caricaturist”; thanks Mick. That was enough to set the others off. But I’m happy to report that someone from that site sent me a PM requesting a print. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Engle Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 I can hardly wait to show everyone the album art Victor's doing for my band.The conceptual renderings are already great. I don't know if we'll make our pre-Xmas deadline, but it will be pretty close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a LOT of painting to do! I better stock up on art supplies. Now I regret the bargain basement fee I offered you—100 hundred grand isn’t going to cover it. :rofl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
