My friend convinced me to draw the Clue(do) characters after my Lust-Pride drawings featured a lady who she said looked like Miss. Peacock!! Behold!! Miss Scarlet, Colonel Mustard, Mrs. White, Reverend Green, Miss Peacock and Professor Plum
I think some edition of clue had Mr. Green as a priest, I just thought that'd add some variety!

Everything I can find about Finnish versions of Clue lists him as Pastori Viherlevä, very curious where Juhani came from if you can recall. Do the characters have actual first names in any of the official Finnish media? o:
Ok, so the thing is that apparently I just have a weord version of Cluedo. It's from 2008, this is the box.
All of the characters have like "modern" backstories and have been given first names. The names (with their direct translations) and backstories (in Finnish because I am too tired to translate) are:
Marjaana Punakulta (Marjaana Red-Gold)
Juhani Viherlevä (Juhani Green-Algae)
Jaska Keltanokka (Jaska Yellow-Beak)
Aino Valkopesu (Aino Whitewash)
Pekka Purppuravalo (Pekka Purple-Light)
Regina Päiväperhonen (Regina Butterfly)
Also I am deeply annoyed by the fact that Regina doesn't have her colour in her name.
I don't know if other versions of the game have the first names or if I've just been blessed.

My best friend, artist Brad Slocum, recently offered me a rare treat — a look through his clip book of preliminary sketches and inking and shading studies. His finished works are meticulously detailed and richly colored, but I enjoyed seeing their smudged and re-worked origins. The drawing above, on crumpled bumwad tracing paper, is a study of Professor Plum, from a series depicting the characters in the board game Clue. The final illustration is wonderful, and intensely purple, but I like catching glimpses of the structure and thought behind the completed work.
Perhaps I like this sketch so much because I feel a personal connection to the subject, and the way Brad has realized the Professor as a myopic collector or academic. In an earlier passage of my life I was engaged in entomological research at Virginia Tech. Maybe this rendering cuts close to what my world would have become if I had stayed with it another thirty years. Behold the mensch!
Incidentally, today marks the fifteenth anniversary of my first tumblr post. In another fifteen years I will be ___ years old, so we’ll just keep doing this thing one day, one year at a time and see how far we get. To all my fellow travelers and friends on tumblr — especially the long-timers — I’m glad we’re here together.

There's something about closeted, somewhat conservative gay redheaded men that intrigues me.

Anyways I’m the spirit of Halloween and also in the spirit of me not posting art in a while, here’s a piece I did for class about the characters from clue depicted as the seven deadly sins
I’ll leave it to you to figure out who is what.
