Much against popular demand, I've decided to add a picture I drew a while ago, seeing this thread. I thought about photoshoping it, but then I thought, "Bah! I can't be bothered."
It began as a picture of the Lord Wight, but sort of expanded into a little picture of him getting annoyed at a particular running joke...

Sorry, my drawing is not that good.

Feanor of the Peredhil · 04-07-2006, 08:05 AM

Hehe.

The Only Real Estel · 04-07-2006, 09:22 AM

That's hilarious Hookbill!

I especially like the "Crying Eye of Sauron."

Hookbill the Goomba · 04-07-2006, 09:28 AM

Thanks, folks!

I hope I'm not going to destroy this thread now, but I quickly put together another picture that amused me slightly. It's the Phantom with a pile of gold... Demanding (of me) some more. I have no idea why.
Sorry if you're insulted Phanto', nothing was intended.
Plus, I think I made him a little too fat... Well, judge for ye selves.

Hahaha - he has got a definite potbelly.

Is that me on the right? Or is that just coincidence?

No, no, no.

It's supposed to be me, hence the shirt. But Phantom is meant to be quite big in comparison.

Those are great Hookbill!! Love them!!

Quite a lovely satire Hookbill!

And as for the sizable girth of the subject, not only material wealth grows with making ourselves jolly...

Note: 'jolly' is not meant in any relational joke with that of a certain adored-by-children figure of the north. It just sounds good in that sentence.

Ta' verry much, folks.

Not sure if this counts, but it amused me.

It's Witch_Queen... Litterally.

Valesse · 04-10-2006, 10:37 AM

I couldn't resist drawing Meneltarmacil's loction.
I can't resist anything involving Giant Squid.

Hookbill: I'm tittering so much because of that picture people here in the lab are looking at me weird.

Glad to make someone's world a little weirder!

My Brother just saw this picture and said, "The funniest thing about it is how the lipstick is so badly put on. Looks like the Witch King isn't really trying."

I had a picture I was going to post here of Fea, but I've lost it in the depths of my hard-drive.

EDIT/ Found it!

Feanor of the Peredhil · 06-19-2006, 10:03 AM

Aww, and I brought my red dawn with me!

Aganzir · 11-23-2008, 10:31 AM

Note: I don't paint Downers just for fun. The assignment was to paint some photo, and it was allowed to alter it a bit. And this was the best I could think of back then.

Rikae · 11-23-2008, 11:37 AM

Wow, Agan! Nicely done. I have to mention (I hope it doesn't offend you) that something about the coloring of the lips, and the expressions, makes me think of this as a couple of werewolves relaxing after the nightly kill...

I'm lynching those two right away, next game we play together!

Aganzir · 11-24-2008, 11:12 AM

Thank you.

And yes, now that you mention it... I can see the werewolf-resemblance, too.

Nogrod · 11-24-2008, 03:24 PM

That's just awesome Agan!

There's no mistake to be made about the guys - I mean they really look themselves (even with the lipstick - which just makes it more hilarious thinking about the original mood of some of those pics from that trip).

Which is no doubt why he's hanging around with Rune then, having a good drink after dealing with silly and presumptiously serious švejkárna?

Again, you continue to amaze me dear Agan, wonderful work!

Aganzir · 12-06-2008, 07:40 AM

Thank you both.

I also intended to paint Rune in Holger Danske costume, but found that I had too little time to concentrate on such horrible things as chain mails.

Aganzir · 08-23-2010, 09:39 AM

Those on Facebook have probably seen this already, but I'm posting it here, just because. It's Boro and Rune, and I'm very grateful to them for posing together in so many inspiring pictures.
