Cale + Calix Wyndham Portraits

Cale and Calix Wyndham from *datenshikurai's historical erotic horror series, Briar Eclipse, set in 1880s America.

I made this particular image for the Briar Eclipse club on y-gallery - [link]
And to help get my mind off things.

I drew these lovely fellows' portraits on Tegaki E. (Yes, I'm serious!)

Oh Tegaki... you're so alluring to a lonely and frustrated gentleman-in-mourning such as myself...
...and the same could be said of the Briar Eclipse cast.

I adjusted and applied various brushes and tools to the drawings in Paintshop Pro to make them look more "photographic". (Cale needed a particular amount of work since I didn't draw his portrait in a proper period sepia tone.) Obviously not perfect, but I enjoyed the deviation from the tasks I'm currently shackled to, and the much-needed change in artistic and fandom-related scenery. Thought the small folding frame of the period would match quite well with what Cale would carry in his pocket... his very full pockets([link])!

Not really in the mood to post the full separate portraits here just yet, so until then, if you like, you can read my artist's comments on them at my other gallery:

**I also appreciatively request that any comments made here be on topic (the art, history, characters, early photography & portraiture, Victorian era, etc). Please don't ask me about costumes, conventions, completely unrelated fandoms and such... that really is the last thing I want to see posted under this picture. Thanks in advance. **
