The Good, the Bad and the Ugly by kerosene

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

Apparently I have better luck drawing Clint Eastwood and Lee Van Cleef than I do my own self… In order to be somewhat recognizable, I felt compelled to superimpose onto my awful drawing an actual photo of my face (as it tried to channel its inner Eli Wallach). Not thrilled with the results, it looked a lot better in my head!

If you aren’t familiar with this epic 1966 ‘Spaghetti Western’ directed by Sergio Leone, you might at least recognize Ennio Morricone’s iconic theme played during the climactic three-way standoff scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_zeiKrRTuk . I just remember watching this as a child and it was such a great western...

So I drew the thing, took a picture of the drawing, didn't like my face, took a picture of my face, and well here it is. A bit of an odd photo but hey, it’s always worth giving it a shot and trying out new things, so won't you play along with the 5+2 "ugly" theme this week?
Fabulous, well done. In reality, the good, the bad and the beautiful!

@paulaw Paula this is probably the most descriptive "la la la la la" I've ever read, I heard it in my head as soon as I read it!!! :)

Brilliant idea! A* for the artwork too. I like the decision to mix your drawn face with a photo it works perfectly. The side of your eye stare is spot on too

Cool!
