SMRM '81 - Nigel standing there doing basically nothing by *tea

Artist commentary

coloured sketch of Nigel, bassist for my furry band See Me Repeat Me

he isn't actually playing his bass he's just...posing I guess

now that I spent a fair bit of time colouring it (and I really like how the colours turned out) i sort of wish I'd had enough room on the paper I was using to actually finish the drawing lmao

edit - I just noticed the unintentional bad pun in the title

    Oh man this is soooo cool
    I love his face, the little details like the reflection in his eye are what make it great!

    Eeeee, that is so awesome! Hooray for '81!

    He reminds me of someone, can't think of who though...

        Wait, have you ever heard of The Romantics? Because he kinda looks like their bass player to me...

          I have heard of them, but I have no clue what their bassist looks like lol

          the band I used as inspiration was really big in the early to mid 80s, I'm sure you'll figure it out~

                I could tell that Charlie was Simon Le Bon right off the bat, so that's how I figured it out. Plus John's real name is Nigel, so.....

                    I sure do. I was obsessed with them for two months straight a couple years ago. Have you drawn the other 3 guys too?

                      I have been obsessed with them for oh....three years now ;-; they're what got me into 80's music (new wave specifically~)

                      and yup. the character modeled off of Nick is a bat named James, Roger's a rabbit named Tony, Andy's a ferret named Nile.

                      300000000 points if you can guess where I got the names Tony and Nile from

                        Uh...Nile I have no idea.....and Tony I'm not too sure either. Is it because Tony Thompson is one of Roger's biggest influences?

                          haha, Tony Thompson is the one! he was a really goddamn talented drummer, would've ended up playing with Led Zeppelin in the 80s if it weren't for his untimely death 8(

                          Nile = Nile Rodgers, I'm sure you're familiar with him. I love Chic c:

                            Ah, yes, Nile Rodgers. I didn't think of him at the moment. Any reason why Nick's name is James?

                              I think his middle name is James

                              plus I just really like that name :D

                                Hmm, I don't remember, I'll have to look it up. And yes that is a nice name ^_^

    It takes32 muscles to frown.It takes a HERSHEY bar to smile.
    Verdict:Frowning gives you wrinkles,smileing gives you pimples.
