There is a mask you can roll up in Katamari Damacy that has a long mouth. The game calls it the 'Best Mask'.

And then you will cry because it burns when you piss.
:iconwhalewithlegs:
I will have to look at this mask.
:iconwolfenashes:
It can mean so much with only a moments glance :jawdrop: spectacular

I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free ~Michelangelo

:iconstrangledcry:
Wow. This came out amazing. Beautiful lighting.

Let my own lack of a voice be heard.
:iconwhalewithlegs:
thank you! I'm starting to feel good about my understanding of lighting on figures (without models, I mean).
:iconbunsennbeaker:
Wow this is awesome--this is like a full story version of the viral piece.
:iconwhalewithlegs:

I have not ever been so happy to be understood, thanks Ben. I can't beleive how much detail and intuition you recall about The Particulars. You've got to know how happy it makes me when other people catch on to my ideas. And nobody ever has so well as
you always have. Albeit how "far-fetched" they're considered to be.

So long as we think about life this way, we'll live longer and better. Never refer to your livelihood in the past tense. I do that sometimes,
THEN I SLAP MYSELF FOR BEING SO SELFISH. You know, the Gloomy Smart are just as rediculous as the Cheerful Dumb.

"'When you're unhappy, you get to pay a lot of attention to yourself. And you get to take yourself oh so very seriously. Your truly happy people, which is to say, your people who truly like themselves, they don't think about themselves very much. Your unhappy person resents it when you try to cheer him up, because that means he has to stop dwellin' on himself and start payin' attention to the universe. Unhapiness is the ultimate form o' self-indulgence.'"

Yes the way that The Particulars are spoken in this painting...I especially love the space that you have in the center of the thinking web there. That space is so important. Almost the most important part of it all: curiousity.
Ah the tender care of it all in his hands and a face so clearly absorbing everything around him. It's like an ecstacy.
Ben thanks for always listening to my raving antics. or, almost always...it got pretty bad sometimes. But you sparked me up.
I was dying, this philosophy of thinking that you have wonderfully expressed was also dying
