Hi all.
It occurs to me that I've not actually really uploaded any of my images to this site, and dagnabit, I should've by now. If only as a thank you to Lingster for being such a gracious host.
So, I'm uploading a handful of pics, and maybe more as time goes by. Sadly, most of you will have already seen most of these pics, but maybe some of you haven't and you can enjoy it. Also, I'll include an "artist's commentary" saying whatever nonsense pops into my head. Click the thumbnail for the full-sized pic.
… because I overdid the bicep. I haven't actually made the bicep fit actual physical anatomy. Her shoulder muscles should overtake the bicep and draw it more into her body, something that harsh black line prevents. So a bit of a mistake.
Also, I admit, there's no way her hand can reach her forearm, like it does.
Despite that, it's a funny picture and was intended for Fettcom, namely for the "Threads" section. Wreck Shop wanted to post all the original threads, including the thread I debuted on, on Fettcom for archival purposes. So, the title and the entire theme of the pic is a pun on the word "Threads". I'm a funny man.
Also, the icon on the t-shirt is called "Grimace" and was an avatar option on Wreck Shop's forum and belonged to two posters I have a particular fondness for – Blargolis who seemed to love me, and jnw550, aka "Stoneyman" and "Mr Stone", who was an unbelievably nice and reasonable man, with whom I had many discussions with. Originally, I planned on putting CDR's avatar on the t-shirt since he'd been so after me to draw a picture of a woman's muscles bursting out of their clothes, but I decided to honour two posters instead of one, not because I liked them more than other posters, but simply because of the efficiency of being able to honour as many supports as possible.
Not only that, but that emoticon's face, I think, is incredibly appropriate to the theme of the pic.
Okay, okay. Ness asks me to tell you she wasn't happy with the t-shirt, nor my taking of the pic. She was particularly peeved about the whole thing. And who had to call up the people and demand their money back? Me. Not Ness. Me. She couldn't be bothered to "go through all that crap", so muggins here had to do it. She wasn't allowed a refund, and so she just cut the sleeves off and wears it when she works out, which makes the Grimace emoticon even more appropriate as it now resembles the wearer. (Incidentally, don't tell her I said that.)
