Gerard isn't going anywhere! WOOT!!! ^_^


I’ve never thought much of my doodles that I’m painting on my basement walls (or my art work overall).

In progress are:

Urd from Ah! My Goddess.
Two depictions of Amaterasu from Okami, (all on the same wall, the wall itself is a deep blue.)
And a on a black wall is an Amida Buddha (think of the Daibutsu Buddha in Kamakura, Japan) in silver and white paint thus far…

The four that got painted over are:

Suzaku Kururugi’s Knightmare Frame the Lancelot from Code Geass
C.C. (in school uniform) from Code Geass
Lacus Clyne (holding pink haro) from Gundam Seed
X10A Freedom Gundam (half blown to bits, lol) from Gundam Seed - Episode 50

Some people that have seen the work in progress have asked me how much I’d charge to paint a mural for them. Or if I have a card (wtf?!) standing in line at the Home Depot paint counter. Its just a hobby… kinda time consuming… and I’d have to be in other peoples houses at their whim? Sounds tedious to me… that and I don’t think that I’m good enough to demand a justifiable amount. The time and supplies alone… geeze. Plus what if I see in my head isn’t what they see? One guy wants Malcom X (in the Boondocks drawing style) but also Andy Warhol’ish with multiple images in different colors. T_T

For fun I have no problem but when money is involved I’m squeamish. On another note I probably will not get a chance to finish my four paintings in progress… due to the fact that I either have to get a roommate or rent out my place (and I’m pretty sure not everyone wants giant anime characters, kanji or a big ass Buddha painted on the walls). Most likely they will all be painted over so that the basement looks “normal” and finished. Which makes me sad to think that I’ll never see what they would have looked like completed.
