The cock is back !!! Thing is ... examples (even this old crappola) are so thin on the ground, I was thinking of knocking up some daubs and pretending they ere ...er... John Seargent or summat. Anyways - Here's some 3D guff. The patina (tint) is intentional - supposed to be gold, but, off-brass will pass thier inspection, obviously. Creepy - as is any of the stuff that is supposedly "photo realist". I am not sure why so mush realist turns up in these selections - I may be pillioried for saying so , but, I think it's because we're often dealing with infantile approaches to Thee Fine Arts here and this must be the lingua franca of celebrity daubers. So - more weird furniture (faird do's , they've taken a good punt at hands.. and a very nice touch on the elbow, wrist nees to be as good though). This Arteeste is ...er... mature , and a bit of a sculpture themselves (imho) European, female. Who the bleedin' ell is it ? ? ? ?

[glow=red,2,300] Well done Tops AND Sands.[/glow] It was indeed, against all reason - b]Gina Lolo Brigida. [/b][/size][/center] "They all have terrible bags under their eyes" Too harsh on thee top lighting - although , these smoothed off, , brassy beasts, would be a lighting nightmare, for anyone. Si, indeedyolo. Gina has got the clay out again. The drapery around thee shoulders, is most likely 'modelled', but the shorts and skirts are most likely real clothes , slipped over the final clay figure, before casting. They all seem to have the same face - which is throwing me off. Still - she does a mean elbow, and no mistake. A large bucket of penne al forno for Tops and Sands a used Fiat handbook for the rest of you lazy fooks, who coud nae be shagged to hit the keyboard.get guessing on the next one, otherwise cock's off !

Val Doonican! lol! I wish. ;D It's an actor. You can tell by the way he uses his light and shade; see the way the the yellow outlines contrast with the way the shadow lands all across the canvas? I suppose there's some comparison to Picasso but I expect a whole afternoon of looking at an exhibition of his would be the death of me whereas I have experience of surviving Picasso. You must have got it by now, Tops! Quick, put me out of my misery so I can get on with savouring what remains of the day. Must be Anthony Hopkins. I'm saddened, would have thought he'd have painted something more inspiring

What a load of old tosh! And the "paintings". Almost as bad as Damien Hirst...
