Utterly fantastic work by the artist...though it does spark the ponder-type thought of where Mike Phillips is these days, since his artwork as eerily photo-realistic as well.

So it's really cool that you like this, but you might've considered asking my permission before you posted it here. <3

I noticed that “euclase” made a comment to “two,” which is me: “So it's really cool that you like this, but you might've considered asking my permission before you posted it here. <3 ” http://www.fireflyfans.net/bluesun.aspx?bid=23254 Browncoat on Brown Paper.
Is it too late to ask? May I have permission to post this particular art at fireflyfans.net? Please? (Imagine me begging in a whiny voice like the insincere, evil Skeksis Chamberlain from the Dark Crystal)
I also noticed that your “Mal Reynolds” is no longer posted at deviantart: http://euclase.deviantart.com/art/Mal-Reynolds-190982667 I will delete it on Fireflyfans.net if you do not want your art displayed. Command me and I shall obey.
I'll leave you with a long quote from a chapter called “Images of Immortality” in a paperback I'm reading. If you want to read more, it is on-line at http://www.american-buddha.com/lit.voltairebastard.18.htm
“So the viewer approached the perfect image in great expectation. He found a technical miracle. He found genius. He found emotion and beauty which seduced him in a way he had never been seduced before. But he did not find what he'd come for. This living reflection did not do to him what he had expected. Of course, like most metaphysical expectations, this one belonged in the realm of unformed yearning. There is never a blueprint for desire, and yet the perfecting of the image was one of the great disappointments of Western history.”
“For some twenty years after Raphael's discovery, craftsmen celebrated their triumph with an outpouring of genius. But gradually the subconscious failure beneath this conscious success began to slow them and to darken their perspective. The viewer has only to watch Titian's opulence and sensuous joy gradually turn tragic. With no room left for progress, the image turned and dodged and circled back and buried itself like an animal chained to its own impossible promise, searching for some way to get beyond the mortality of the real.”
