Shadow of the Colossus Returns
🕑 Added 2025-05-09 01:45:24 +0000 UTCAfter retiring from modelling years ago, I was recently joined by Michael for a special session recreating the famed "Shadow of the Colossus" painted that I did a decade ago! The new photo above is close to the beloved original, including the teal shift in the green!
Both Michael and the sponsor of this painting were really interested in getting some shots and comparing them to the originals, so we'll be doing that later! ;-)
For now, please enjoy the journey!
Now building this wasn't easy, but since when was good artwork ever easy? Or satisfying?
Yes, here is Michael... the calm before the storm... just moments before he stomped around like a giant, towering in the sky! This was a fun day filled with memory making!
Who wants Michael to step on them? That was a rhetorical question, please don't answer XD
And of course, lots of pretty lighting! We tried to experiment with red, green, blue, and more!
I care about my photography a lot, so I try to play with the ambiance until everything feels right. Are there any photographers on my page? What do you prefer... indoors or outdoors? ;)
Is that a Vampire? Nope just Michael outdoors!
I enjoy shooting in the sun, but I seem to struggle with my whites being too white.... it doesn't help that he's as pale as a Game of Thrones character :P A series he's a HUGE fan of actually!
What do you think? I have more of Michael I'm editing as we speak, but I need to get ready for a Drag show to support one of my friends! Wish me luck... <3
Love + Art,
Brandon
P.S. Phoenix Fan Fusion is a Month Away!

I think unfinished Michael looking pensive in your studio with all the additional art behind him is one of my favorite photos ever. Ever ever ever. You know me - I'm a sucker for WIP pics. And his expression holds a lot of weight.
