    All Robert Delko had ever wanted to do was be a detective. When he was younger he always loved reading the old fables about Sherlock Holmes. His desire to be a detective was strengthened by the fact that his father was one of the most celebrated human detectives in the galaxy. Delko loved to listen to the stories his father would tell about putting together clues to find a criminal. Robert Delko was always an intellectual. He always excelled in his classes, specifically math, science, and physical education. As he grew older he began taking on individual and independent investigations. At the age sixteen he put together clues that ended up leading to the capture of a rapist and murderer who was currently at large. Besides embarrassing the police agencies of the city, he was declared a hero, mostly by his classmates. When someone needed something or someone found people relied more on Robert Delko rather than the police. On his twenty-first birthday he signed up to become a detective in The Agency which his father worked for, and at this time, his father was the administrator of. Robert quickly rose in rank and was well-known for his capabilities. Although he never really was able to fill his father's shoes as the galaxy's greatest human detective. He was paired off with another well known detective named Devlin Dachary, both became good friends which became effective in their investigations, earning them an unofficial title of 'The Dynamic Duo'.
    Two years after Robert Delko's integration into The Agency, his father was murdered. The culprit was never caught, but The Agency never pursued the matter either. Furious, Robert Delko began his biggest investigation yet. Dachary and Delko searched as many leads as they could, until finally an anonymous caller gave them a tip about a suspicious organization Robert's father was investigating in called Chimera. As Delko and Dachary followed the lead they had begun to be held down by more and more red tape. With limited access to documents, Delko tried the best he could to link Chimera to the murder of his father, to no success. Even though it has been close to three years since he was called off his case, Robert Delko continues to find any way to establish a connection and finally find the people who killed his father, and most importantly; 'Why?'.


    NOTES:
    -This was that pose I was orgasming over in an earlier thread of mine. Now you guys get to see if you agree or not.
    -I didn't quite like the write up this time around either.
    -Seems like the independent write ups that I do (Robert Delko, Max Cortez [unrelated story characters by the way]) I don't like as much as the Vortigaunt ones.
    -Which reminds me I should continue the Vortigaunt Chronicles.
    -I was not able to do any Vandal yet unfortunately. Too jam packed with other ideas and the anticipation of Left 4 Dead 2 is distracting me.
    -This is the first of six (currently) characters.
    -I did not quite like the Mysterious Stranger model to be used as a futuristic detective (that and when I re-installed my gmod and downloaded the model he was suffering from WHS (Wooden Head Syndrome) which I am WAY too lazy to fix.)
    -So enjoy the picture and write-up.

    Picture is quite good. Depth-of-field and posing is good, as is the faceposing.
    Story is pretty damn cheesy.

    I do like the little background you give to your pictures, even if they are a "TAD" cheesy at times

    That's the main reason I don't like the independant writings; They sound good and original in my head but on paper they sounds cheesy and cliché.

    Thanks everyone. Glad you like the it.

    This picture looks like one of the characters in this one comic I'm currently making.

    I like the story you wrote too.

    Wasn't there a guy in CSI Miami called Robert Delko? I'm not sure about the name but his last name was definitely Delko.

    I think I may know who you're talking about. And me thinking of the name 'Delko' could have been one of those 'spontaneous supressed plagersims' that I seem to get..

    Maybe, Not sure. But most likely a coincidence.

    Thanks everyone.

    great fingerposing.

    among other things, the fingerposing just stood out.

    Which good since, with picture that close to the subject it would be easy to point out the flaws.

    Thanks.
