Reasons you will hate me

Bloody good call.

She's one scary looking (wo)man.

Oh Rolf the 'artist'! Geezus, just stick to you friggin wobbley board thing...

The Queen doesn't feel the same as you. This is what she said when asked about Rolf's latest work.

"It's Friendly."

Fuck no, it isn't. It's goddamn creepy.

There's a reason why most places in Australia required to show a portrait of the Queen (Police stations, state parliament, the British-Australian Club) prefer to keep a circa 1950 print on the wall. There hasn't been a decent painting done of the Queen since then.

Hate to think what Rolf would do to Camilla. Argh!

What Rolf would do to Camilla is really a moot point; there's not much you *can* do visually with a leathery, Franklin Mint Pharlap.

How long has she had that nose?

I'm sick of people ripping on Camilla. Given a choice b/w spending a night with her or Diana, I'd be saddling up Camilla everytime. She just looks as though she knows how to have a good time.

Console yourself with this:

Prominent blue veins showing on the hands and feet is a symptom of heart disease - the blood is rerouting due to blocked arteries.

She'll be dead soon.

Then you'll only have to be scared of her crazy overbite ghost.

Oh, wait ....

Fitz, one day you too will be old.

It looks like Charles "Bud" Tingwell.

"Fitz, one day you too will be old."

Or WILL she? I wouldn't be surprised if she had some sort of Dorian Gray type of situation happening, not one bit.

Which may have been what Rolf was aiming for as well. Botox via the magic of canvas etc.

Ok, so that face is freaking me out. I don't see drunken leering old person salivating at the prospect of some heavy petting.

I see smiling homocidal maniac

Hey! Lay off my Crazy Uncle Max! He's harmless (if you stay out of arm's reach and don't wear anything eye-catching ... like colour).

I agree. She looks like she's lean over and take a bite out of me. Cut open my liver on some Royal silver and then cradle my severed head in her arms...

I will never grow old. I'm going to stay young and vital like Gary Coleman.

I actually think that the mouth and nose look like Rolf's own.

It's some sort of conspiracy on his behalf to get his own mug on the palace walls. Geeza!

I wouldn't be surprised if she had some sort of Dorian Gray type of situation happening, not one bit.

Oh. My. God. It's her blog that ages instead of her! It's ingenious!

How do I know she's the Queen? If you asked me who that was I'd say some strokey old nana waiting at the old-people's home for her family to pick her up on Christmas day. She'll have problems using her false teeth to eat the turkey and nobody will talk to her because they think she can't understand.

There was a time when royalty dressed like it. They wore large purple robes and pointy metal hats with jewels on them (sometimes rubies!). I've seen it in books.

That's just a picture of an old woman wearing a suit made from the upholstery of an old couch.

I like it. It reminds me of my nana and good on rolf for having a crack at it.

Maybe Rolf, a far better craftsman than he's given credit for, has simply captured her essence in all its, er, finery.

The queen always seemed so sweet- until now. Surely you wouldn't let such a portrait of yourself go public?

Too bitey.

That is just too scary for words... Hang on, are we talking about the Royal Family in general, or the shite pic of the Queen?

when painting it rolf harris also said he wanted to bring out her friendlier down to earth side
