Cheesy title, but this is the first Phantom of the Opera closeup of just Erik I've been happy of in a long while.... Or moderately happy, at least. x; I like his eyes and the white in his wig, but s'about it. So many flaws here that I can't mention them all.

Erik the Phantom belongs to Leroux.

And black masks are the sex.

I love the mysterious, aristocratic air you give him - yum! :D The black mask works very well. I never imagined him with a queue, but to each his/her own interpretation. Is this in fact set in the opera house, or at an earlier point in his life?

Javert: That I was crazy.
Valjean: Well!
Javert: Well, they were right.
Valjean: It is fortunate that you think so!

Well, thank you. ^^ I didn't like the full black mask at first, but I grew to like it after reading the original book a bit more often, since a white mask wouldn't be as practical as a black mask in the shadows.
I think the queue comes from playing Devil May Cry a bit too often. It looked good on Sparda, so I figured that if he could pull it off, good old Erik could probably do it better.

I actually gave that a bit of thought, and I figured to leave the white streaks in his wig to give him a bit more maturity, so this would have been in the later years of his life, perhaps not long before he met Christine. I'm still working on creating a background for this on a separate page, just to refrain from messing up the original copy.

Looks good! I like the mask the most.
