I blame my sisters--they've influenced my noir-ness lately.
This character in particular has been running around the household lately; it started with Katrina creating and drawing him in various scenes of noir intrigue, but now both Cheyenne and I have been drawing her fan art and it's become somewhat addictive. (I think Cheyenne drew Cthulhu-like tentacles coming out of the darkness as he leans into a door to get away. It was really awesome, all done in black and white pencil...she really ought to get an account here--
both of them oughtta!
