Do not spaz! I repeat! Do not spaz! I had to fix a little typo in the
description. Yes, it was the spelling of cinquain’s strange username.

HEY!!

collective murmuring beneath your collective breath:
'omg. not ANOTHER johnny depp picture!! *guuuuuhROAN*'

i gave you fair warning.

piece that i was going to give it another shot sooner or later.

=P

character in the movie 'from hell'.

was trying something different. *shrug*
hey. i hadda try!

Really beautiful drawing. I like the big grain from the graphite. It almost resembles pointillism. Beautiful tone work and background.

By the way, I've never heard of From Hell before. Is it a bit like The Ninth Gate? Judging from the genre I can imagine Depp was asked for From Hell after his successful role in The Ninth Gate. It still remains among my favorite movies.

well, you need to see from hell.
it was based on a graphic novel written by alan moore and illustrated by eddie campbell.
i guess you could call it their take on one of the theories with regards to the jack the ripper story.
depp plays inspector abberline who joins the hunt for the ripper.
i won't bore you any further with my blathering except to say you should go get it.
now!

This was a great film.

Love the detail, it could easily be mistaken for a black and white photo portrait. :)
