He looks good here, compared to how he looks now. What’s the point in a flattering portrait? I mean, this is damn sexy compared to how he actually looks.

Yeah, maybe in his own mind. That's way too ripped for a cowardly midget with delusions of grandeur.

Joe Biden on the other hand is a defender of peace, nature and justice, right?

As someone who lives in a country were Biden himself promoted and funded the wrongfully impeachment of my former president, I will strongly disagree with your statement. The way I see it, any us president is far from being a sign of security and freedom.

Wrongful impeachment? The fucking moron incited an insurrection to overthrow our democracy. AND he illegally paid off a porn star with hush money during a campaign. AND he tried to interfere with the 2020 results in Georgia.

I can’t wait til the SDNY and Georgia grand jury release their indictments.

Biden is a fucking Saint compared to that Putin-loving, fascistic grifter.

Either the people downvoting me can’t tell that I’m making fun of Putin, don’t like that I’m making fun of Putin, or actively support him. So I guess downvote away? He’s an authoritarian who’s always been obsessed with his image. Fuck him, his policies, and anyone who supports him.

I think it’s that you can’t detach your view of the art from your political stance.

Most people dislike Putin I think, but the fact that the artist can’t express his vision (portraying Putin as lean, determined, and frankly terrifying) without you criticizing because he doesn’t look like your perception of Putin as weak or impotent (I presume?)— that’s what is getting the downvotes.

I mean, he is portrayed as a ghoul here basically, it’s in no way flattering.

Even in your commentary there’s political context. What makes him seem determined and terrifying? His shirtless striding and horse riding skills or his determined and terrifying acts against his own people and those in Ukraine. To say that a painting depicting Putin as a monstrous figure in the year 2023 is NOT political is just boring and somehow pedantic. Yes not all art is political all the time, but a painting of a zombified Putin set against an apocalyptic landscape released during a war he started is not political? Really?

Also, saying Putin is flattered here is clearly sarcasm. The man has puncture wounds in his chest. Does we really always need the /s?

I was trying to say that real life Putin looks gross and use something like litotes or hyperbole to ironically say that he looks good here. Do you honestly think any rational human would look at this art and go, “Dang! He looks great!”? It’s an insult. The man, like every other authoritarian, is obsessed with his appearance. It brings a modicum of joy to know that he would be even a little annoyed by comments about his looks.

Amazing textures, he works with 3d right?

In reality he is much uglier. This guy is what he probably imagines himself to be. The guy I see in the picture may even have serious convictions which gave him some sort of spirit to go through something and survive, and has lean muscle to prove it. But Putin is a little cowardly man with a complex of an insecure short person, and who has some issues with his ego, hence the numerous plastic surgeries and an immense love, apparently, of money and riches which he has plenty of within Russia as outside of Russia.

Putin is fucking the people of Russia, causing pain and suffering and taking their wealth. He is a criminal. To the rest of the world he is a power hungry maniac with a lot of hostages suffering Stockholm syndrome.

Hahaha , tought it was somekind of a repost or something.

I love how with the anatomy and expression you achieved that expression. "Less is more" , in this case that "less" is a LOT.

Thanks for sharing

Wondering if making a SD based "artwork" is enough to be posted in here. 🙄
