Description This is my first sketch of the first day of school. I still have a couple other drawings in my head.
Basically, Dom and Bö decided to ditch the crowd and take a stroll around the campus.
As I was drawing this, in my head Dom was looking over at the group of teachers and angels and making some sort of snarky comment about them. But then I realized I was too lazy to draw anything with perspective so we just get this. Bö is just listening to him. She doesn't say much ever.
I think they make such cute friends!
And I really like drawing these characters in my own art style. It was also fun drawing them in their normal clothing style instead of the uniforms. I do like the uniforms though. But Bö's shoes were fun to draw. So fun!
I hope you guys like!
(I experimented with coloring too. What do you guise think?)
Dom belongs to ~WalksOnAir
Böthildra belongs to me.

I love this! You say you couldn't be bothered to put the teachers in but this feels really finished to me. I like the texture or whatever you've used, the yellowy feel to the paper. And really good use of negative space, looks like they've left something behind for sure. The expression on both of their faces is good, it looks like Bö is really in a I-don't-want-to-talk-to-people mood, maybe even feeling a little vulnerable, and Dom is just fairly amiable and happy to walk with her so that she's not heading off entirely by herself. She looks fairly serious, like she's got something on her mind, or maybe just feeling gloomy, and he looks like he's ready to listen if need be, or if not he's happy to just chat or even just walk in comfortable silence.

Their outfits are really cool, too. I like the way you've done them. Bö has really cool jewellery. I like the fat bracelets but also the necklace is awesome! And her floaty top... and shoes! And the faces. I love her nose, as always! And I really like the way you do her eyes. All that makeup. It just looks cool

I like the way their "otheriness" is fleeting. The lone feather, and Dom's teeth/horns/tail. It's not in your face, so it feels like we're looking at them primarily as people, which means we can empathise with them. I like it, anyway. They feel very... real This is one of my favourites out of the dozen or so of your pictures from my inbox that I've been catching up with. I just think as a whole the piece is very well done

This is beautiful!!
Cute couple (well even if they are just friends, they look great together), vintage texture, awesome clothes, pretty jewelry! Whats not to like?
I love the idea of a nice, friendly stoll. Bö's face looks SO CUTE. I might've told you this before but I love her design! Her full lips and thick eyelashes especially.
Love this.

Thank you so much!
Ah, I remember drawing this, first picture I ever did of these two together. As the story has progressed they've become lovers, they really are my OTP!
But this comment really means so much to me Corelia. I'm so happy you like Bö's design!

I think this is a super cute piece! The colors you used, the clothing they are wearing, and the style of your work all mesh really well in this work! I can also really sense movement, which I always love to see.

These are cute characters and they look lovely in your style. I like the character that shows through. Especially on the boy whose making fun of the teachers and angels. I like the contrast in their moods to actually. How the boy is all goofy and the girl is just silently listening to him. And as VintageBrunette said: I like the vintage look to the coloring.

I really like the colors on this. The sorta hazy yellow tone helps add to the casual feel. I also like the characters alot, the girl's expression looks really like "whatever, I wanna get away" so its cool that you could convey so much emotion in a piece.

Really cool, I like the concept, the whole piece looks really fun and interesting. I like how you've done the girls hair, somewhat larger than life, amazing.

The colours are also really good, really warm, the yellow overtone is great as it brings down the harshness that would otherwise have been there if it were black lines against a white background.

The line work is also really good, you're obviously well practiced.

You know, I actually agree with you on his head being too big. It looked fine until I colored it and that's when I saw it.

Thanks for the tips though! The feedback means a lot to me!

All the back stories of each character and the way they all act with eachother..
That's a pure movie/anime material o_o
If I was skilled enough, I coulda make a short flash movie about a day in that school =v=

Awesome drawing by the way!
how did you draw and colour that? on the computer or traditionaly? o.o

I know! It's so awesome!!
That could be really epic if you could do that! But that would be really hard!
I know I have a couple of comic idea's so far!
Thanks so much!
The way I did this was I sketched it out with mechanical pencil. Then I scanned it in. With the airbrush tool, I colored it on a different layer. (All one layer).
After that, I added a screening effect on a new layer.
It's nice of you to ask.

Kupurika In reply to AzeilaRose [2011-08-06 12:13:07 +0000 UTC]

I have lots of possible scenes in my head..since the group was made..
I was planning to learn flash to animate stuff long time ago too.
But when I think about it, comic/manga could be much more easier compared to animating, and we can do it all together if we want to~

I'M SO HAPPY YOU LIKE IT!!!!
Dude, I'm so glad that Dom is in the school. Other wise Böthildra would be a total loner. It's ironic because the angels sent Bö to the school in order to make friends and be a normal teenager. I think they'll crap themsleves when they realized she made friends with a Demon Boy and joined a gang.
I'm so happy I got his looks/personality right. I still am in LOVE with the way you draw him though. You have one of the coolest art styles I've seen on da. I don't do it justice. I love that Dom isn't made up of the typical sexy shonen desu boy. His facial features are so real. And I lurve his side-burns!
But fo rizzle, one of the coolest things about KG is that I've gotten to meet awesome peeps like you!

I don't like it. I'M ABSOLUTELY IN LOVE WITH IT!!!!
I'm so glad Bö is in KG, or else Dom would be best-friendless, and I'm sure that would drive him insane!! WHAHAHAAH!!! Don't worry I'm sure they will get into all sorts of horrifying shenanigans the will make angels turn on their clouds!!

;sodfja;sldkjflsadkfj Dawwwwthankssomuchbby Same for your style, it's so warm and colorful! It gives off a kind of a natural feeling that's hard to find in specific cartooning styles!! But he just looks awesome an natural in your style too! I have no idea how long he would survive as a sexy shonen desu boy he'd be like, "THE FUCK-WHY ARE MY EYES SO BIG!?! "
And Bo!! Don't get me started on how much I love her design, 'cause I could go on forever!! Everything about her is just so well thought out and incredibly fun to draw!! AND THAT HAIR! OH GAWD I LOVE ALL THAT HAIR!!

I feel the exact same way!! There are so many cool peeps in it, I don't think I've ever been so close to this many people on DA before!! And I'm so happy I met you too!!
