Finally got the scanner working so I can do 'proper' drawing now with paper and pencil and erasers (have to remind myself not to say rubbers because times have changed and that now means something entirely different). Just to celebrate a little I'm posting a picture done the old fashioned way that no one has seen before cuz I couldn't possibly scan it at work! First of all it's not my fault, the content, I mean. Blame Anise, she wrote it, and the kinky Viking who thought it up in the first place.
Also, be warned, there is an element of - nudity - um - er - male nudity. Well, here goes....

Thanks for the comment but waste no sympathy on Loki. He's chained to that rock for a very good reason - persistent insubordination, mischief making, prank-pulling and engineering the murder of Balder, beloved of the gods, incidentally bringing about Ragnarok in the process. Spending enternity having poison dripped onto one's tummy seems quite a light punishment if you take that rap sheet into consideration!

OMGOMGOMGOMG

When I clicked on this in the PoF files section, I just about died. This is so, so, so bloody gorgeous. Impossibly beautiful. To be honest, I am envious of your anatomy skills. Did you use a photo ref or was this all from your mind's eye? Either way, *applauds*

Oooh, and I love his hair, too.

Is this the one you wanted me to color? If so, gladly, my darling. If not, pleeeeeeeeeeaaaase? *begs shamelessly*

Yep, it's all out of me own head!! Obviously a very scary place - my imagination. This is the one I wanted you to colour. The rock is awash in a sea of flame - it shows up better on the large version of the picture - had to reduce it a lot to get in on the host site. If you could colour it I'll email you the large scale original. Lemme know, ok?

I'll do a corner and snip it and send that too, ok. Thanks. I'm so much happier with b/w!

You mean colour a corner and send it?

Thanks. I'm so much happier with b/w!

Hmm, does that mean I should leave it? *confused*

You asked about the colours so if I do a very rough colour of a little corner - the bit with his foot maybe and snip that bit off and send you that little bit - "study of foot - inexpertly coloured" - then you'd be able to see what i was getting at and improve upon it. When i say i'm happier in b/w i mean i'm not comfortable working with colour. It's odd - I dream in glorious technicolour and envisgae my pics that way but find myself getting all unhappy and anxious if i try to paint. I suppose old dogs like to stick to the tricks they know.
Thanks masses for the colouring offer - whoo hoo, our first collaboration!!

Wow that is incredible! I can't help

really feel his pain!

He's there for a very good reason - Loki, ultimate prankster pulled one prank too many and gods don't have much of a sense of humour.

I know. I've always been oddly fond
of Loki though. lol. I remember reading
something about him once... It was from
his perspective. I wish I could remember
what it was called! I haven't thought
of it in ages.

You did that with no guide? I'll look
forward to seeing more.:)

It's still a very nice pic and makes my feeble efforts at manipulation look paltry

Oh, Sirius! He's sweet - if a little stressed looking! Thanks for the comment about Loki, though. I'll do you a non-South Park Sirius now I can scan it. How d'you want him?

o_O Yay for kinky Norse myth! So, we can blame THAT *points* for earthquakes, then? I've got to admit, that's a hell of a lot more interesting than plate movement.

DAMN, put another notch in my inferiority complex -- you're AMAZING! ^_____^
