A poster for Rouge and his band L'étrange Mélange for their forthcoming live show :3

Just in case you forgot or maybe never heard of it, L'étrange Mélange (formerly known as The Strangemix) is Rouge's (whose real name is Eric) musical band where he works as both synth player and crowd entertainer XD Rouge (whose real name is Eric, but known better as Rouge ^^) was a circus boy trained by his mom a lot while he was still a little blonde kid.

When he was about 15 he joined a breakdance group and found out that music was his second life and he just couldn't stop listening to various electronic stuff :3

In his 17 Rouge and two of his friends founded the band L'étrange Mélange which has become quite a hit thanks both to the hypnotic melodies and Rouge's inimitable performances on the stage.

Rouge also has a close friend (from childhood) whose name is Sebastian and he's a magician, but it's another story :D

So now it's time for a bigger show which will also get broadcasted on TV, so a lot more people will get to see the coolness that is Rouge XD

Please excuse the boring story, I had to do really a lot at work today, so I'm a little tired ^^ I'd love to hear what you think of this poster, though :D

Big thanks to Truhania for helping me with French!! ^__^ and for suggesting a good slogan for the performance: au delà des rêves - "beyond dreams", Rouge loves that! :love:

This is wonderfully beautiful, firstly the character himself has a sweet boyish charm, and his very well built body sure helps with adding to how "mesmerizing" he seems, but the best part is the pose and the seeming ease with which he executes it, the pose both emphasizing his beautiful body and anatomy and also mesmerizing the viewer, one would definitively take a quick glance and then be reeled in by the uniqueness and dreamy type of beauty in this poster if it were actually hung somewhere.

On a more simpler note, I love your drawing style and how you outline anatomy through such unorthodox poses, it makes me envious enough to start practicing towards that myself, I think you've truly done a awesome job!

You're very kind ^^ I think the modern society wouldn't be able to swallow such a poster, the majority of the brainwashed members of our society would simply choke on it, but in a different world with more open minded people I indeed can see how this poster would be appreciated ^^

Well I never wanted to be an artist, I always loved contortion since 5 years old but it's not my goal to be known as "an artist who draws unusual poses", I don't draw these poses to impress someone, I simply find flexible poses beautiful to look at and happy that the human body is capable of it.

Well consider how many "alternative" youth's we have today, I think there'd be are a fair bit of people who would find such a poster interesting.

Thats what makes it so good, you focus on drawing something you like, which makes your pieces so amazing and their anatomy so good, but I was actually referring to what Rouge is doing, I was and am envious of what he can do, but that doesn't make your art style any more enviable, I just think its amazing all the things the human body can achieve.

Well most of so called alternative youths are only doing it to look cool, so I don't think they have some truly revolutionary ideas and world views. Inside they're the same as regular commoners, so I wouldn't rely on their opinion that much...

True true, but in the end, such things are made for those who appreciate and like them, so who cares about the rest?

This reminds me of when I was in the circus when i was little.

We had a russian contortionist girl, younger than me, and her father. He would stretch her into the extreme of contortions till she was crying and wailing, or screaming even, then hold her in place for however long he thought she could bear it.

Kinda scary ._. but she was fascinating to watch perform.

Your pics are amazing to look at

Was he stretching her back or her legs, though? Because stretching to do the splits is really painful, that's the reason I could never achieve the splits -__- But stretching to bend backwards is very delicate and shouldn't normally hurt at all because the slightest back injury degrades flexibility a great deal..

I'm sorry for her, though, but contortionism being my favorite art form I still can't help but wonder what kind of things she could do, if you don't mind me asking of course.

I'm happy that you liked my works! ^__^
