SON OF CRYSTALWANK.
(Ganked from SqueakerMouse on
wank_report.)
Yes, it's another "OMG, IT'S NOT PHOTOSHOP, I'M AN ARTIST!" wank. It's small, but tasty.
Meet MysticStormCloud. MysticStormCloud has a DeviantArt gallery to showcase his OMG amazing portraits because "Sometimes I get a big inspiration and then I must paint something... :D Most of all... I like paint people........., especially a famous actors."
I suspect it's less to do with "inspiration" and more to do with the fact that famous actors have lots of nice pictures that you can run PS filters over. It seems a few DAers would agree.
There are little, bite-sized wanklets in the comments for each deviation; a few cry "filters!" There are one or two calls for tutorials, or for step-by-step photos of the works in progress but the real wank happens in the journal section where MysticStormCloud calls out the doubters. But not to worry, MysticStormCloud has an ardent defender in the form of DjSamer who plays the "UR JUST JELUS" card, at RikuDragon in particular. Because the jealousy card never, ever fails.
For extra WTFery, go to MysticStormCloud's main page, then scroll down to the webcam section and there you'll see some photos that PROVE they're real paintings. They're not pastede on. Nay.
ETA: And I've just noticed that according to Djsamera's signature, Jack Sparrow is the "sexist pirate in the universe." I know it's wrong to mock someone if English isn't their first language but I can't help it. I'm having a Spinal Tap moment:
"What's wrong with being sexy?"
"No, no, sexist, Nigel."
ETA #2: Woe! The album has been bahleeted. I saved pictures which my peruse here.
