hi Merlin and Warlock and many thanks for your comments and ideas :bow:
i'm glad , because you both, in general, "got the picture"
from the ideas you both wrote.... it means that i'm in the correct direction. now i will explain the concept:
It's is about a harlequin(jester) that also is a pro killer hired to "finish" ill-fated persons. the problem is, he's starting to have regrets about what he's doing, begins to hate himself for that.
So, when some nobleman comes to him, and wants to hire his "skills" (gold) to murder some poor guy, the harlequin loath and anger bring him to amok:angery: :angery: :angery:
Proffesional as he is, he control his temper, poison the nobleman with some powder hidden in his ring( which is in the middle of the table) in the wine . while the victim is blurred, the harlequin puts the mask on the victim face, and stabb him dozen times, and , for the grand finale, a final blow in the head, with the mandoline. (what's a harlequin, without his mandoline?)
after that, he return the mask( with blood on it) to it's stand, the blooded knife and mandoline on the table, and seats on the chair .... thinking, planning what to do next...where to ,now? he KNOWS there will be no more murders, on his part.
so what we see in the frame is the "after" part of the concept, which, BTW, is happening in a tent(hence the round and verical lines...and the tear with the stitches)
well, what do you think about the concept?
again, thanks you both :beer:
