That looks like my dad when he's English Longsword Dancing.

Except for the gun ... he has a sword.

Well, it's about time that furry sketches got some respect from the arts community.

Are you sure that's not Kelly O? Looks like the same "hunting" clothes to me! Where did she find that mask (if it is one)?

Not only should this be Untitled, it should be unseen.

Oh good, more fucking deer head art. Can't get enough of stuff with deer heads!

you know what gets me. I have gotten slammed on blogs in Seattle for this project for folks being tired of deer heads. When the whole flipping project started because of this. The folks who slam it obviously didn't read the about page for the project which talks specifically about why I did the project in reaction to the overuse of the deer in contemporary imagery.

I really expected a bit more from Seattle. But I guess I shouldn't expect too much from anyone.

Oh Good / why don't you read the about page for the project as stated above. www.trophysoldiers.com.

then if you hate it fine. but don't be ignorant. that's all I'm trying to say. if you can't read two paragraphs before dismissing a project then keep your mouth shut. really sort of ticks me off that I expected more from Seattle. Read....

But you know what. I've always stated that if folks hate my work I've succeeded. So thank you. Glad a handful were upset enough by it to write anything. thank you.

i'm tired of the deer too. that's why I started this along with exploring why we as a culture are so apathetic to the war.

cheers. and enough said.
