IT'S DONE!

DONE DONE DONE DONE DONE

Well, not quite, I need to add a fadey text effect on the pic with PS and a quote. But the picture's done! I'm so happy.

Uhhh.. let's see. Spent so much time on this pic, but the sketching was the majority.

6 hours sketching, 1 hour inking, around 4 hours painting and tough-up work.. 11 hours?! X_X

Crammed into three days of bliss and drawing drawing drawing. Draw draw draw.

I used some new effects in this pic, like the splattery effect and the shiny and I actually attempted a background though you can't see it! C: SMOOT.

This was done on my last sheet of GOOD watercolor paper, too. Goddamn, I need to buy more of this paper, it's AMAZING compared to the stuff I did my other works with. I even got to use my brilliant salt effects and you can actually kinda see them! <33 But yeah, I am SO PROUD of this picture. So much that I'm submitting it early without the text effects and everything! *impatient* I'll edit with the new pic later. Must. Show this one off.

Prettyboys are so fun to draw. Pretty pretty prettyboys! <- Needs to draw more Legend prettyboys, then, and Ouran prettyboys and Monster prettyboys and PRETTYBOYS

p--prettboys.

Anyway, expect a photo guide soon. I started one this mornin' because I was waiting for color specs on the wings (nearly died inside while making it, I accidentally closed it when I was almost done) and I had taken a shitload of photos while working on this picture. Yayyyy. You guys get to see my horrible watercolor techniques!1 :C

I'm amazed that I don't have much to write for this description, normally I would have written a lot more if I put this much time into my art. Hmmm. Let's see..

Oh yeah, I can quote this chat! Right. Some random crack in the making of this pic:

Neko (5:53:26 PM): I don't know what the basis of the picture is. XD
Kimi (5:53:29 PM): Uhhhhh.
Kimi (5:53:30 PM): XD
Kimi (5:53:51 PM): They're about to hold hands? XD
Kimi (5:54:20 PM): But stopped mid-way because there's a stupid wall and Kimi only allowed them room enough to squeeze both arms through.
Kimi (5:54:28 PM): *cry* Kimi is so meeeean.
Neko (5:56:01 PM): XDDD
Kimi (5:56:10 PM): XD WAIT.
Kimi (5:56:34 PM): WELL. THERE'S JUST SO MUCH YOU CAN DO WITH ONE ARM. *shot*
Kimi (5:56:43 PM): I retract the "mean" statement.
Neko (5:58:02 PM): XD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kimi (5:58:15 PM): XD I'm horrible. I know.
Neko (5:58:21 PM): VERY.

I also fell asleep in the middle of typing this, let's see what Kimi's sleep-worn brain can come up with now.

Hmm...
Nothing. Keep an eye out for the photo guide! XDD

Demian and Clare (C) <- A genius
Art (C) Me <- Still half-asleep

EDIT: Made the sky behind Clare a bit darker and added shadows to the clouds. Also touched up Demian's lines a bit. (I need to work on that photo guide)

Medium:
- Mechanical pencil
- Sanford (?) waterproof artist's ink
- Some no-name white acrylic paint
- Marie's Watercolors <- Chinese brand
- Lots of blood and tears. I think I may be dehydrated by now.

Time:
- 11 hr of work, time calculations somewhere in that horrible mess called the "description"
