Description For as a prize for guessing one of my crap dudes.

This is Klaus Nomi, as he was in "The Nomi Song" video. I loved his tutu-ed self, so had to have a couple of those, especially since it made there be more to the picture. I love his outfits, and his makeup... And his song, I swear I listened to it like 50 times already!

I was going to do the stripes the whole way through, but I was afraid it would make it harder to see the Nomis. Unfortunately the stripes ended up being a little uneven. I went with greys, since most everything was black and white. Since I shaded the white on him in greys, it tied it together.

I tried to give the Nomis some odd poses, as best I could fit them. Dang this was fun to make!

Anyone who doesn't know who he was (Like me, until I noticed I saw him in those couple of Venture Bros. episodes as a character, which obviously wasn't really HIM...), go watch "The Nomi Song" music video on YouTube.

Ahh, the black tutu... I can hear his vocal acrobatics just prior to the guitar solo in my head now. :-p

You're not the only one who was introduced to The "Prince of Space" (My Little "Title" for Mr.Nomi) via "The Venture Bros."
I still can't look at a man in a dress without laughing, though.

Oh yeah! XD Forgot to say what I REALLY wanted to say!

You captured him, and the feeling of the song perfectly! Everything you draw are elements which can be related back to the song.

Yeah it was really sad, he was so much fun! I love that kind of stuff!

Thank you so much! I went totally blank on a background, sadly. I guess minimal is good, and stripes are kinda 80s, *lol*!

I'm so happy you like it! If only I used bigger paper, I could have fit in more different Nomi outfits! D'ohhhhh.... You have great taste, man was that fun to draw!

I've heard of him, but never heard his music.

He's pretty obscure, it seems, *lol*. It's really really weird, in that great 80s artsy pop way. To me, at least, *lol*.
