Love, love, love Project Runway! Sure the show fumbled when it relocated to LA that one season which just so happened to be when they switched to Lifetime. Not their best offering for sure. But that's long since past and the current season has plenty of colorful characters to keep us entertained. And certainly the most sparkly, flashy, and daring peacock of them all is Joshua McKinley. He comes from the more sequins, sparkles, and drama the better approach to design. More is more! Leopard shoes with plaid pants--- sure! A corsage on a beautifully draped gown-- oh hell yea! And Joshua isn't one to shy away from controversy--- screw that! That one is all hiss and confrontation. And those eyebrows! Those eyebrows....... It's as though they were generously and precisely cut from black patent leather. Purchased at Mood Fabrics of course. Here's my depiction of the fiercest contestant from season 9.
You do not want to be on the receiving end of that finger. Wait.... that sounds bad. :)
Previous Project Runway recaps can be seen here.
Depiction of Joshua completed with pen and ink on 9" x 12" printmaking paper.
Please check me out on facebook.
He's a bit mean and not gracious.
Sorry can't warm up to him.
But Viktor Luna is very good at his craft and deserves an honorable mention.

Honestly one look at this guys style and I would run in the opposite direction.

Hey John!
Great to hear from you again. And I agree, his cloths would make anyone with eyesight want to run away. I just drew him because hes such a kooky character.
All the best!

Oh! Oh! Can you draw Anya next, and her BIG FUCKING EARS, that her wild hair-do actually accentuates. I wonder if she knows that.
She reminds me of some kind of cat with a mohawk.
(I know I'll now be crucified on the net for speaking out against Season 9's little baby Anya.)
God.

Oh dear lord, I cannot stand this guy. I hate the way he tries to enunciate like the great Buddy Cole (Scott Thompson's character). Viktor is this season's best.

I had to go back and check out a real photo of this guy because I couldn't quite place him. You made him far too handsome in your sketch, but then you are probably a kinder soul than I so I'll just have to get over it. :o)
