Thanks Jody, if you didn’t stumble across Folker maybe it’s because he used one of his invisibility tricks with you. Watch out!

How did I only just now stumble across this? I agree with Zoe, the smoky Raisa is amazing! I love how the story of these two is developing. Very fun!

HOla Koldo son impresionantes éstos nuevos retratos y sus hisotorias , debo reconocer que tengo bastante vocabulario de inglés pero es muy malo, a veces me quedan cosas en el tintero… pero como tus imágenes son tan potentes… casi ni hace falta.. felciitaciones tu trabajo sigue siendo tan atrapante y misterios…

Thanks Yelena. I think you’re right about Folker, he defenitely hide under a fake mask. Moustache, beard, makeup and all were fake.

I really love what you did with Raisa and how Folker’s face looks more like a mask behind which someone else with lively eyes is hiding, trapped.

yes, it’s an excellent depiction of the disappearing trick, as she is see-through and also tantalizing/ (and a little exotic, from the way you’ve curled the smoke…)

Thanks Zoe, the smoky Raisa is part of the famous magic number The Dissapearence of Lady Zakharova. I have portayed it the best I could after based on the few descriptions I’ve found, but they’re all a little contradictory.

The number suppodsely changed throughout the years. After being banned for obscenity, Krause did a re-make without the nudity stuff and introduced this ‘foggy dissapereance’ trick.

*gasp*
you have really upped the ante with this one! the style and expression of his face are exactly like the character you describe, and the smoky raisa is beautiful. i’m so glad you continued with these characters; i agree that it would be interesting to hear something about liduvina…

Thanks Johanna, I didn’t mention but that was not even his real name, but an artistic name he made up himself. You’re very welcomed at my Character Workshop, I really love your Halloween art.

It’s such an honor to have you here, Lali! Liduvina is another two-faced character, it would be defenitely interesting to know more about her, if everyone else agrees…
