Artist's Comments

I hope you like this. I was trying to touch back with my old and neglected craft of pen and ink. Stark contrast. Etchy shading. Little details. I hope it is pleasing to the eye, and I hope to do more soon.
My lovely Vampire Christian is sitting, all hunched and such as always, but, oh-look, with him is a small friend of his. Hello Plucky. It is good to see you again. I have missed you.
Read about him here: [link]

I do not know what to do for the background. Suggestions?
I have wind blowing, so he is...outside?

I will update this at some point in the future, so I ask you all to take notice of things you do not like and mention them, so I can go back and fix them. I am not sure what to do with his white little face. i tried shading it in photoshop already and it just came out dirty looking. suggestions?

Oh, and if you do not understand where the title for this comes from I pity your childhood, and will lend you a hand. [link]

I like the pen. It gives your pictures a soft, almost glowing look to them. Very eye catching.

thank you. I miss my old pen. *hugs it* i did NOT miss, however, the one pen i used. i forgot (in all the time i hadn't been inking) why i never used it, and i remembered it when i scanned this. it has a red-base to it, so it comes up brown, and it causes the paper to ripple, which then leaves all these highlights and shadows where i just wanted the black to be. I had to clean up the black spots on the computer some and i found it annoying.

but you like the style?

'tiz my old style, something i did but thought was lame and tried to forget. but i just can't seem to get a grasp of anything else, so i am kind'a back to it. all that is still changed slightly is the face. i am still working on expressions and noses and such, so that will probably keep changing until find something that works and looks decent. but back to my old bodies and anatomy. i missed mit.

*pets the scarf* I want it. D:

why do your characters always have clothes I want?

Very good job on the shading; for the face, I'd suggest just putting a shadow underneath the nose and the bottom lip, and under his strands of hair, this way it'll go better with the other shading you've got going on.

hope that helped. :D

And distance holding you,
Suspended on silver wings.
