31DC2015 Day 12 - Film - Reservoir Dogs

Hi Goddesses



I think I've said before, I hate film / TV / music prompts. Not because there isn't stuff I love, just because it's really hard to be put on the spot and think of something suitable at the right time.




It's a miracle I came up with this one!  I Googled film posters, and initially saw The Blues Brothers.  I knew I had ties and sunglasses from Loki's Nail Vinyls, and that was going to be my plan, until on the next row I saw .... Reservoir Dogs.




Never having wanted to watch Blues Brothers, but full of stun and awe for Reservoir Dogs, my choice was made.   It's the most breathless and wrecked I have ever felt in a cinema, and I remember it being 3 or 4 days before I could shake off the impact the film had on me.




I used my Loki's Nail Vinyls for the ties, and then did some splattering with diluted red polish.   I tried to paint the ear but yeh, me and painting, so in the end I homaged that scene with a switchblade.




I'm actually quite thrilled with how this one turned out.
