Description He was too polite that was his problem.
Not that he did not like the owls, but they were so awfully unreliable. He had told them that he had a date and now he was forced to sit here, watching their youngest child and waiting for their delayed return. He felt the cold creeping up his back.
It was redicolouse. He was a vampire! He was supposed to frighten people, not to do the babysitting for them.
If those wretched creatures would not return within the next five minutes, he would just...
Suddenly his sharp vampire ears heard the sound of the owls almost soundless flight and a smile appeared on his pale face.
Well, the night was still young...

This is an older picture I did in ink and watercoloure about a year ago...

I did finish it, but it hasn't been published (and it's in German).

This piece slightly disturbs me, but that's a good thing, considering you probably want it to! I'm happy with the fact that the brown cloth is not very detailed, because having an even amount of detail throughout would lose focus... which the eyes and the bowtie compete for. The bowtie draws my eye more than the eyes, but both tie and eyes make the focus in the general area of the face. I like the attention to detail with the rosy hued areas on the skin.

Great job, and keep producing top-notch pieces like this!

These are all fantastic! I really like the expression on his face, and the splash of color with the bow tie.
You are absolutely one of my favorite artists on dA.
