Artistic Soldier

Randy (a.k.a. Rail, Monki, probably some other names I've forgotten) was one of the "old school" mtad regulars who was around on the forums way before I was, and he also dropped by the IRC channel pretty frequently. He was dealt a pretty crappy hand by life in general but somehow always seemed pleasantly positive. Sadly, he ended up doing a tour of duty with the US Army in Iraq and was killed at the age of 31.

This picture was my contribution to the "12 Days of Monki" tribute that a bunch of us did. I'd provide a link, but I don't know if anyone actually collected it all together and put it online. I also recall that it suffered from the typical group project problem of a couple of people not finishing their pieces, so I don't know if it was ever even completed.

Anyway, perhaps I was trying to be a bit overly clever here, but this was supposed to be a play on the fact that he'd fairly recently done some Alice In Wonderland inspired pictures, along with the fact that he was a soldier who enjoyed making art, and with a smattering of busty bunnygirl goodness thrown in for good measure. I like to think he would have approved, although I suppose he probably would have preferred my original idea of just going entirely with the bunnygirl part and forgoing the rest.

You can find some of his artings on Monki Heaven!, or check out his DeviantArt gallery.
