So after trolling DA for bluesian fanart this long, you tend to notice trends. Mostly people practicing their portrait skills so many times on the same small handful of BB publicity photos that you want to tear your hair out.

However, I give these two pieces by Chainsaw-Zombie kudos as an exception. The artist has made these popular poses his own by his use of depth and full range of color.

Real nice stuff, so lively and vibrant. I like the roughness, so much in line with Jake and Elwood's characters. Thanks for posting this.

Thanks All_Or_Nothing, shows you how DUMB I am with computers... Real nice stuff, I like it very much. They both look so lively, wonderful.
(Actually I thought y'all were praising the works behind the HTML coded message from Jake&Elwood of yesterday posted at 10:49. Confused as usual !)

Those are cool pictures, your right, people tend to do the same things over and over. But those are cool none-the-less.
