The Holy Trinity


Mooney here, Thompson's off galavanting and asked me to stick this up for him.
This here piece is a real blast from the past. It features Thompson, myself and our good friend Adam(Avatar of Human Perfection) Kelly as a Jedi, Rick Deckard and a colonial marine respectively. Yes, those were nerdy times. We used to spend all day every day drawing in my house, followed each night by a vigorously contested game of Mario Kart wherein myself and Adam would do our utmost to win, while Thompson just killed me continuously while completely disregarding any aspirations of winning himself, just because he knew it annoyed me so.
Ah... good times.

    I think Thompson's likeness is the best. He was always good at them, I pretty much learned how to do them well from him, of course I would never tell him that...

    Man, that drawing of you is the best drawing of you i've ever seen; and you've drawn yourself a LOT.

    Great 80s movie illustration vibe to this. Plus; i like the non-spikey-haired Adam. Never thought such a thing could exist.

    That's like the Holy Trinity of nerdvana. All hail the mighty Father, Son and Holy Ghost of Geekdom.

    Do you remember that we had a very in depth photo shoot for this in the old Mooney place in Bayside, and all three of us were supposed to do a Struzan style poster?

    I do remember. In a weird twist, you were the only one who actually saw it through. I started mine and never finished, and Adam, well he just liked getting his photo taken. I hilariously still have the pics if you ever want a larf.
    Did you ever find the original for this? You promised it to Jac, she wants to put it in the bathroom.

    Yeah I really want this picture!! Sort that out Thompson... Is Adam holding such a large weapon cos he hadn't developed his own guns back then?
