Artist's Comments

I almost didn't make this. I started looking for reference and found that someone else had already painted this situation. The basic sketch was on my computer for months. Then I found top 10 list of advice for artists. And one of em was "Everythings been done... but not by you."

Originality is really overrated. I mean, some of the greatest artist throughout history have used other source material. Michelangelo didn't invent the stories he portrayed on the sistine chapel. Rembrandt did a sketch of the last supper, despite leonardo having already created his master piece.

So I decided, what the hell, this may have been done before, but that doesn't mean I can't give it a go.

I worry that the motion blur sort of blurred his left leg, so I kind of dilineated it a little bit. But tried to not over power the motion blur.

Also, this is my take on Sanguinus' armor, I know there are many canonical differences.

Just open your eyes, just open your eyes and see that life is beautiful. Will you swear on your life that no one will cry at my funeral?

Don't ever be put off from doing a piece of artwork only because someone else already dealt with the idea or theme. You will probably always have something to bring to it that others haven't...

(And there's no need to be overly worshipful of works by "great artists". Yes, _The Last Supper_ is a wonderful work. It is also a mural daVinci did to decorate a dining hall in a monastery. [He also did it in fresco, which was not a medium he was experienced with.] It was not regarded as *so* wonderful that it kept people from knocking a doorway through the bottom section of it a couple centuries later. See: [link] )

Nice work on this one, BTW...

Oh, and ignore that angry, bobbing head over in the corner: somehow I got an emoticon by mishap...
