Yes! More Fan Art!!

http://www.mikeportnoy.com/forum/tm.aspx?m=2099281

Today, I present you some works from the portfolio of forum member, "ashleytsejam". Who, besides having an impossible to pronounce or spell username, has a passion for depicting Dream Theater members in 2B pencil.

After viewing these, I find the key to enjoying ashleytsejam's work, is to go deep within yourself, and really question the limits of human facial and forehead proportions. Also, hair is easier to draw if it's represented as a sharp, singular being.



























Hmmm...is this a picture of Mike Portnoy? or John Myung? Maybe she's confused. I also was not aware that Portnoy was a Shriner, but what do I know, these prog fans are WAY more informed.

As if this wasn't enough to satisfy our cultural desires, ashleytsejam (you don't know how hard it is to type that name) has included a BONUS PIC! of John Petrucci!!! Hell Yeah!!


























Well, I think it's John Petrucci, but it might actually be James Franco from Pineapple Express.
The eyes are the window to the soul, and I think his soul here is either baked, or just really tired.

To no surprise, the Portnoy faithful are quick to give praise...

Superted_your pictures are unbeleivably (sic) good! keep it up-cant wait to see the others!

Gee, thanks Superted!! Your inability to judge art or spell let's me know that you are superretarded!!!

NO7LUF_wow. i did a picture of mike back in art class about 2 years ago but i wasnt this good. great job!!! you are a very talented artist.

wow, this must be some fucking shitbomb of a drawing, I must see it!

Luckily, ashleystejam has 3 more members of Dream Theater to draw, so it'll only be a matter of weeks before we see James Labrie's watermelon-sized head, John Myung's unicorn horn, and Jordan Rudess's tentacles!
