Erik's drink of choice ... ;)


Inspired by the fabulous pin-up work of Ralph Burch (check it out here [link] if you're unfamiliar), I drew the lineart ages ago, back when I was planning to do a bunch of other Broadway heroines. But that's probably not going to happen now. Christine was the first in line--the title came naturally, and looking at the Hannibal ballet costume, I thought she would fit right in with Burch's other martini girls. Although I'm stumped at what would actually go into a Martini Daaé. :shrug:

I did not draw the rose; it's a blurred free photograph. As if I would be that ambitious! The glass was definitely the hardest part to paint on PS (I'm still working with a mouse, too). There are definately some significant proportion issues, but that's to be expected from me by now, without drawing from a source image. I'm hoping eventually to try and resolve that before printing it up as a gift.


This portrayal of Christine is (c) Leroux/Lloyd Webber, etc...

Hand-drawn lineart, all colour PhotoShop CS3.

I envision a giant nosebleed from Erik if he were to see this.

Hmm... for ingredients, maybe something French and something Swedish, on top of the vermouth, although I guess the vermouth can cover the French part of the equation.

As for the Swedish part, Absolut Vodka might work. It's made in Sweden, after all. :absolut:

lol ... I'd say there are plenty of possibilities. :D

Agreed. The ingredients can be made to reflect her appearance, for example... although how that'll work is beyond me.

A Wendla Sex on the Beach? A Mrs. Lovett Bloody Mary? An Elle Woods Cosmo?

This could go on forever...

Yes indeed! Right now I'm thinking this'll be it, but who knows? The Wendla Sex on the Beach (in the Barn? lol) made me laugh. :)
