How 'bout an art meme?

I thought about this a while back, and never got around to doing anything with it. Shame on me!

Some time ago we had a doll-maker meme floating around back here. Well, I tried it, and FAILED MISERABLY. There just wasn't anything that my pups would wear, the hairstyles were all wrong... you know the drill. So, I thought, what about...

A fanart meme! I'm sure there's been one of these before, but I can't recall one while I've been here. You don't have to be the next Leonardo or anything -- you can even post a scanned pencil-drawn stick figure, if you'd like! Just post a picture that you've drawn of one of your pups. You can post more than one, if you want, or several of different pups. Any style, any medium. They don't even have to be new pictures. Hell, let's broaden the horizons -- have you made a doll, a sculpture, etc. of your pup? Post a shot of it! Spent some time making a pretty banner or icons? Post those, too.

The only caveat is that you can only post pictures that you yourself have drawn, digital pieces you yourself have created, and photos of things you yourself have made. Trust me, there's loads of lovely fanart out there for a great many characters. This is about you showing off your work for your fellow Millimuns to admire!

Please make a text link to your picture, rather than referencing the image, if the piece is NSFW. (Or if it's just, you know, MASSIVE and a bandwidth killer.)

I'll go ahead and start with a quickie headshot of Roy Mustang ([livejournal.com profile] snapcrackleburn), sans eyepatch, that I drew (and pretended to colour) this afternoon:







C'mooooon, it'll be fun! :D

Something this bad should not have taken so much effort to make. And yet, it did. Bah.

I LOVE. It's in the eyes and the eyebrows and the nose and the sly curl to his mouth.

OH MY GOD THAT IS SKINNER.

AWESOME, in a slightly scary way. I think -- I really think it's in the eyes, though also the mouth-curl.

Also, the 'tash.
