Description Blind Mag from the film "Repo! The Genetic Opera" I love this film far too much.If you haven't seen the film it's well worth a look. It's under the Horror/Rock Opera genres.

Without too many spoilers for those who don't know, Mag was a gifted opera singer who was blind. She went to Rotti, the head of GeneCo. A company which carried out surgery on the rich in a society where being beautiful/perfect on the inside is the new fashion.

Rotti gave her new eyes, his price? For her to become the new face of GeneCo.

I should probably point out that Mag isn't the main character in this film, but rather a major supporting character
Go watch it

I'll say it again, I <3 this film. Probably due to Anthony Head playing one of the lead roles. He has a surprisingly good singing voice (I'd never seen/heard him sing before in a role)

The picture is graphite on a lovely thick cream paper,using a number of fuzzy screenshots from the film. The majority of the hair was done in charcoal with a white gel pen to work in fine highlights and a white pastel pencil for the broad highlights on the face.

I've had to touch it up in Photoshop to restore the cream colored background and the black areas since my scanner tends to reflect off of dense graphite areas :S

Repo! The Genetic Opera belongs to Twisted Pictures (I think)
The art is mine, no stealing ¬¬

This is kind of creepy, Fluff. I'm worried about what's become of you without my influence.

XD Nothing much don't worry. Sorry the reply took so long. Been a bit busy, took up fencing! And the physics lot here are all crazy, so I fit in fine
How's the panto/play going?

Panto is going fabulously. You are mentioned in the directors note of the program, as a matter of fact. You had better come to see it so you can get a copy to show all of your friends. They will be immensely impressed, I am sure.

And, by the way, fencing? THAT IS THE AWESOMEST THING.

And yes very awesome, also...I accrue bruises! What fun

Not a weekend, a Wednesday. We're probably going to film it though, so I can send that to you if you can't make it. Map is going well. Not particularly to scale, though.

I think I'm going to need to see the film sadly. No way in hell I can make a Wednesday during the term. I wouldn't worry about it being to scale. Is it of anywhere I know?

A top hat and a cane? I like the way you're thinking! Of course you should never go underdressed, it's an unforgivable crime!

No. Because it is a pantomime. Fictional, you know. It occurs in fairyland. Have you been to fairyland? Probably not. Have you been to the deep dark forest? That is also on the map.

And it is also fictional.

Fairyland? No sadly...or possibly not sadly. I'm not a fan of the sparkly variety. The Deep Dark Forest sounds more my thing.....on a sunny day.

Oh for the love of-... you had to ask didn't you?

You'll get the same answer as everyone else I have no idea.....However I DO like the sound of that film of the production in February?

Harumph. You've got to get something around your actual birthday. I don't know. I was going to send you the film anyway! Maybe so you can watch it in still, me and Bethany can get you a top hat and cane. You should never go to the theatre underdressed.

hell yeah, first comment, anyway, I love this. The color is so amazing, and it put Mag in such a wonderful light. I love the eyes especially. Its nice to see a fellow Repo fan, there are so few where I live.

Thanks! I likes the reference image I used mainly because of the interesting lighting. The hair in particular, I've never been too good at detailed hair (every little strand like you see in some of the drawings where the detail is out of this world) so I thought I'd have a shot at in in charcoal instead!

Glad you liked it. There are very few Repo fans around where I live as well. Ah well more people for us to introduce to the film!
