More Costumecon 2009

 


Noblemen, bravos at the tavern, ladies of repute and low repute, a milkmaid with her pitcher on her back and a kerchief covering her hair - all of these living fantasy characters appeared at CostumeCon 2009. And I was glad to draw them! Even if I don't invent them, I love to draw them.
Some of them are my clients and I painted them as portraits in their own costume. For instance, Robert, the tall figure to right, had me portray him as an Earth diplomat on an alien planet, and also a cosmic Celtic adventurer in planetary plaid.
