Description
You may ask, βWhy does that guy look so bummed even though he has an experimental military jetpack, a Super-Soaker, and obviously just made it rain Benjamins? Did somebody die?? Jeez.β The answer is no; nobody died. But I guess sometimes I wonder why he is nevertheless very depressed, too.Maybe I can even relate to it a little.

Well, I know that rich people party harder than anyone else, period, and judging from the Bens everywhere, and the... is that a Gauguin hanging on the wall? ... he could probably use some R&R. Mo money, mo problems.
Orrrrrr that's what I thought at first glance.

That balloon has definitely got some secrets.
I really dig this concept, the contrast of bright colors and cool material good with such a depressed pose and facial expression Also, you draw the best male bodies. All the hair and tendons and knobs of bone <3 great stuff.

the monopoly man mask is just so wonderful. Seriously though, maybe he's depressed because he has to clean up all that mess. I would be depressed too. this is all wonderful.

SilverCanis [2010-07-23 13:00:38 +0000 UTC]
Wow, the concept is really cool. A man who looks like he can have everything in the world but still isn't happy. His color, expression and pose even amplify it more.
Alhtough you hear that a lot for stories and rich people ('An unhappy rich guy'), I've never seen it interpretted by art before. And it helps that the drawing is awesome too. ;D I love it.

Perhaps for an adult whos landed a proper career. However, the rest of us are not quite as fortunate yet.
Congrats on being a benny raining god.

fuckin yeah, lady, I wondered where you was at.
The pink radius of tender flesh around his junk draws my eyes there like a magnet. He looks like he's been having suuuper weird hate sex. You're getting pretty creepy and experimental with this piece, I'm into it.

Hahaha, really? Man, I always knew I was creepy, but somehow this makes it official. I didn't even think about it very much; I just looked at his crotch and thought "needs more pink"

Maybe the Benjamins came from the supersoaker.
And he's all confused as to why that is.

i really really love this. the way that guy's skin is all blue scribbles- i think it's symbolic, but in any case it looks really cool.
i also love the face on that balloon.
