Alright, I'ma gonna try my hand at painting again, I'm gonna buy some canvases at the local arts & crafts store, and I want to paint a portrait of Lenin, that I can hang near my bed, so I can greet Comrade Lenin every morning.

I know you chaps out there must have some good pictures of our dear leader, so if you could supply me with some pictures of Lenin in profile, like this:

Responses would be helpful. When I'm done painting, I'll show my finished project to you guise.

I'm liking it, but I think it needs less hair.

I rather like this one.

There aren't many pictures of him in profile that I know of. You could crop in on the classic 'rousing speech' image, it could look really good if done well.

Or you could just paint Stalin.

I really like the second one, he wouldn't look out of place on a red carpet in Hollywood or on the cover of Men's Vogue.

Weird that you'd want to meet a dead guy in the morning. That's a wee bit creepy.
Anyway,, you're just going to have to accept that Lenin was very unattractive and un-photogenic.

But if you're that keen on it, maybe this:

No man no, that's Hegel. Kant is the powdered-wig-wearing dude that Red Cat posted.

ah, well, they are both dead now. All I need to know is their words. Pretty sure they look quite different by this point.
