B & D Character #1: Micheal Scott Ellis

Ladies and Gentlemen,

It's with great pleasure and appreciation that I introduce to you a will be star of the Story: Bullets & Daisies.

This guy is and amazing indidual. He is a talented singer/songwriter who is currently performing in the Colorado area, 7 NIGHTS A WEEK! I kid you not. He is a superb singer and, of course, performer. I approached him one evening with the idea of being a character in a graphic novel.

He said 'what kind of character?'. I told him "you will be a hitman facing a moral and emotional situation when you find yourself protecting a little girl from bad guys. LOTS of Bad Guys.

He asked, "Do I get to kill them?"
Me: "Probably. Hmm.. Yeah, you'll kill MOST of 'em."

"Ok, I'll do it."

Quickly, I snapped a few shots, (one which is in black and white in the slide show) and we've only begun. He is the character. When I need him to look a certain way, he FEELS that way. And so far, I am more than pleased with the results. I can't wait to get underway with the story,

So without further ado:

This is Amidei. He is "Michael Scott Ellis".
