I'd like to think I could have done a better job if I had a pen-and-tablet. I also like to rehearse my acceptance speech for "best supporting actor" while I'm on the can.

I know from the Achewood board that posts about what merchandise we want are usually pretty annoying, but I'd like to say for the record that I would absolutely buy a shirt with Gleemonex's design. If the public demands yet more Topato shirts, you should go high class.

This one is inspired by James Ensor- Belgium’s famous painter.

Ach, Ovalescent, that did not have to be done.
And, shouldn't it be "Ceci n'est pas une pomme du terre"?

I was wondering that as well which made the word pomme de terre go through my head all day. So I've been wondering.. does pomme de terre mean like apple of the earth or like apple of DIRT.

The Treachery of Images. Turn off your sound before you click because there is horrible midi business going on.

Asterphage's is my favorite so far just because I laughed really hard.

Oh yes it did. Topato nipple-covers will be all the rage in a few years, and she will have been the first to posit such a fashion.

I like "potato" better than "pomme de terre" in the other one. Since you're screwing around with great art anyway, you might as well be silly with language as well.

Thanks! I still find it amusing as well.

(Also, I meant to mention it before, but The Human Condition II and the other Magrittes like it are some of my favorite paintings...)

Yeah, I did draw it by hand, but I used Escher's original as a guide.

Thanks for all the compliments, guys. I used to be all artsy-like all the time, but it's been a long, long dry spell. For some reason the spark of creativity exploded when given the concept, and I took it as a personal mission to do Topato in as many different styles as I could. I’m as shocked as you are that everything turned out looking so good!

As far as I'm concerned, ya'll can do whatever you want with the design.

In case anyone was wondering, the paintings I alluded to ripped off were (in order of appearance):

Salvadore Dali- The Persistence of Memory
Rene Magritte- The Treachery of Images
Rene Magritte- The Man With the Bowler Hat
James Ensor- The Masks of Death
Edward Hopper- Nighthawks
Pablo Picasso- Violin and Guitar
Keith Haring– all his shit looks the same
M.C. Escher- Bond of Union
