Description Is under books and novels because the uploading system was playing up. Incredibly. And I have a book on it, and thought that was more accurate than calling it anime

Withnail and I = Yay!

and the full title is 'throw yourself into the road, darling, you haven't got a chance!! because that is what Withnail has just told some bloke to do.

First time I've used acrylic paints for ages...wanted the picture to dry quickly and so didn't bother with oils. I prefer oils but I still like the way this came out, particularly Paul McGann. I didn't have a brush that was quite small enough to do Richard E Grant justice but oh well.

enjoy!

I love the 'darling' in that sentence. The guy looks like no-one has ever called him darling

OH MY GOD!

This is my favorite line in the whole movie. "THROW YOURSELF INTO THE ROAD, DARLING, YOU HAVEN'T A CHANCE!" Some of the best lines in the history of film are in this movie.

And Richard E Grant is so... so...

I'm addicted to both him and this film, so I'm faving this.

Haha! Yeah, it's one of my favourite lines too - probably because it's not one of the obvious ones that people choose, but also because I'd love to be able to shout it at people from my car So tempting!

You can have Richard E Grant but I'll have Paul McGann Deal?

Thanks for the

Thanks! They take a long time to do...am on an oil painting at the moment thats taken three episodes of Heroes (two with Chris Ec ), three viewings of Withnail and I (though valid reason - is a painting of Withnail and Marwood ) and the first X-Men film.

X-Men still makes me laugh for not really any reason ^^

This one was done with acrylics though - and it was the first time I've used them for ages, which was strange - they dry so much quicker than oils I forget and have to mix in the palette more than I do with oils. Though we use acrylics more at my new college, which is frustrating when I know I can paint so much better than I'm showing my teachers

Whoo, bet you weren't expecting that long a reply!

Looks great.

And I'm assuming Mr Grant is the one in the background? I recognise the cheeky grin! You did a good job on it!

He does have a very good cheeky grin. He should well copyright it.
