Brutallo

I haven't been able to update my blog in so long, since I've been so busy mostly with the group film I'm working on, also with being sick as I am while I'm writing this. :(

But this post is special.

A good friend of mine recently passed away. I didn't know him for very long, and I've never even seen him before, but all the same, in the short time I knew him, we were good friends. Adam Dellacecca, whom I knew as Brutallo when I played World of Warcraft with him, was someone I always enjoyed being with and talking to, even if it was always through a microphone in front of my computer. He mentioned to me that he liked my artwork, and that he wanted me to make a color caricature of him, but he couldn't send me his photo, so I made this drawing of his character instead, since it is the way I knew him best, anyway.

It's a shame that he won't be able to see this, but I know that this is something that he would have wanted. I sent the original drawing to his family as a sympathy gift, so now all I have is this digital scan. I hope you enjoy seeing it as much as I enjoyed making it, and may Adam rest in peace, knowing he is remembered very fondly.
