Jeff Jonas @ The Oscars, circa 1978

Had to share it. If you haven't read it, check out Jeff's Facebook post about attending the Oscars. Inspired me--I've been itchin' all week to finish this!!
 

UPDATE:It feels good to be wanted. Esp'ly by Raquel.
My photo ref (via the estimable J. Jonas hisself). Dunno 'bout Farrah, but Raquel had to be wearing Mackie:
 
p.s. I had to massage Ms. Welch a wee bit in PhoSho to get a better likeness--she's tuff! I'm glad you recognized her right off, Elz...but I thought the Farrah was dead on...!

    You need to post the full picture here on TAG though.

    That is an amazing piece. So nicely blended up and textured. I want full size too. I'm not on Jeff's FB linkages.

    Right around the time of Kirk and Farrah's Saturn 3. Which I'm sure got multiple Oscars. I really can't tell you why Farrah was a delay recognition. Raquel I got instantly.

    Both Farrah and Raquel are spot on.

    Farrah I was slow because you've idealized her jaw line.
    She's got a big (pretty) head. Big jaw.
