Description "...She had long, thin eyes that radiated its violet color and pierced through her ghostly pale face. Her eyes were lined with a half an inch of black, and her long black eyelashes shot up to her thin eyebrows. Her face was gaunt and made a perfect heart with a pointed chin that looked like it could stab someone..."

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, !!!!

I hope you like your present! It's everyone's favorite aquatic vampire, SLOAN!!! 8D Some of you may remember that I've drawn her before! And I must say that I'm very happy to have progressed in skill far past my previous attempt which can be found here --> [link] Sloanly even dressed up for the occasion by wearing your favorite color on her lashes~ 8D

She took me about 10 hours over the course of three days, and has been the most difficult to draw, so far xP (Sloanly would probably like that, now that I think about it) I still can't help but feel that I didn't draw what I'd envisioned... but I've fussed with her face long enough xP So HAPPY BIRTHDAY my darling cousin!!! Your stories always have, and I suspect always will, inspire me ^^ My you have a WONDERFUL year~

Much love to you all,

~Me

PS: The title comes from the song "The Sound of Silence" which has some spectacularly beautiful lyrics. The opening lines were always my favorite, though I heard them wrong as a kid and thought they said, "Hello, Darkness my old friend. Have you come to play with me again?" and I just thought that was AWESOME. xD Sadly, that's not actually how it goes -shot- Oh well.... lol

PSS: Looking at her face, I have the bizarre, sneaking suspicion, that she's related to my character Vesper, somehow... xD

YAAAY!!! 8DDD I am TOTALLY all for you getting back into your writing! xD (surprise surprise -shot-) haha! Though I know your summer break is over by now and you're teaching all those little munchkins the necessities of life. :/ STILL! I'm super happy that you liked it and very flattered that you took the time to come back on and comment on it, even though we already talked on Facebook xD CAN THIS DAY GET ANY BETTER??? lol So thank you~

Oh, and I may do a second version where her hair is up. Down like this, it makes her look much older - but when her hair was up (like in my original sketch, actually) she definitely gained a much more youthful appearance... so maybe one of these days you'll have more stuffins to look at! 8DΒ 
Love ya, cuz!! DON'T STOP THE WRITING - YOU ARE AWESOME!!!! 8DDDΒ 

<3

Whoa! When I saw this in my inbox I was like "OH MY GOSH IT"S VESPER!" o_0 And then I clicked on it and saw the suspiciously purple eyes... and was like "oh... no... that's NOT vesper..." But still, you definitely got the same kind of dark, harsh intensity in this, another lady I'd like not to tangle with. XD And your "semi-realism" as you call it is just getting better and better! *cheers*

I KNOW, RIGHT!?!??! I thought of Ves, while drawing it, too xD So I think they much be related xP But drawing this has definitely made me want to try Vesper soon! I mean... just because she's a mean old grumpy sour-face doesn't mean she should be left out of my sketches, I suppose. xP And YES! I definitely see myself improving as well ^^ Thanks for the comment~!

Haha, Robyn might disagree, She'd put a ban on sour faces XD but I say, paint away! I'd love to see Vesper, because I imagine her a little differently than you do. ^^ You're welcome for the comment! I love how much stuff you're putting out lately! 8D

I'm currently redesigning Ves to be have a more alien appearance since all of our characters are ENTIRELY too humanoid, despite the fact that there's only ONE among them who should fit that bill so decidedly >> So prepare yourself! Her looks will be changing >3 Though I may still keep her traditional Kallis 'body art' stuff that she has ^^
And HEY! Wasn't it one of your goals to be more active this year as well? xP I'm looking forward to it....~
