Long time no spam you with my pics of Ritchie, ne? He looks like a gypsy king in this one, doesn’t he? <333333 I love that outfit so much, I was about to draw him with his stupid hat, but I realized how much I like drawing and painting his fluffy hair <3

Well, it’s time to show I’m a handylady (I don’t know if this word exists). I love doing goods and painting as well :) 

The first photo is a T-shirt I painted to wear at a Purple session in Tokyo. I sang Mistreated :) and You keep on moving (Glenn’s part), and wanted to wear the legendary caljam t-shirt. It turned out very well, don’t you think so?

The second photo: MY BABY!!! Since I was a child (like 300 years ago) I loved creating my own dolls with different materials, but this is my first time doing a felt rag doll. My baby Ritchie is the cutest doll on earth, who dares defy me? I made him these clothes and the hat. The guitar is a miniature I bought time ago. The necklace is tiny chain I got somewhere.

The third is a sackcloth bag I painted with special paint. It was quite difficult because that paint is like liquid asphalt >___<

Ok, @thedarksideofchildintime , don’t worry! The research on Ritchie’s hair (and no hair) is done! Any excuse is good when it comes to upload Ritchie’s photos and spread the love for him <3333 As you can see, he never had an abundant mane of hair and showed off a comb over style (my poor baby, but he was the cutest angel anyway!). Even back in 1972 he used to wear a wig sometimes (photo no.2). But on Caljam, his “cabriolet” mode was more than noticeable, and it became truly conspicuous during early Rainbow years (I dare to say that he tried to do hair transplant). By 1978~79 he gave up and started wearing a wig, but before that, he probably wore a hairpiece, too. Around the mid 80′s he found a style that really suits him even now <3333333

Still alive and burning for Ritchie! Some quick sketches of my baby and his hairy sexy chest.

BTW, I went (with my nakama in arms @oritenai) to see Joe Lynn Turner last saturday!!! He performed Rainbow songs with an orchestra, WAO! They even paid tribute to Cozy (with 1812) and Dio (Catch the rainbow & Rainbow eyes) what a beautiful performance! I cried so many times and at the end I could touch Joe’s hand *________*

Long time no post a Ritchie drawing! well, perhaps you didn’t miss it so much T3T Anyway, me and my heart will go on an on loving Ritchie and drawing him forever. I bought this (expensive) grey paper sketchbook only to draw him! XD Still practising how to portray his beauty and expressive gaze... aaaaaaiuuu~

Please, forgive me... Just noticed certain resemblance (even in the composition, that photographer is a genius, I was about to edit the colours to accentuate it, but it’s accurate enough).

ehem... (teacher’s voice) Look at the blackboard, boys and girls!
