Description Don't try to explain your mind
I know what's happening here
One minute it's love
And suddenly it's like a battle-field

One word turns into a
Why is it the smallest things that tear us down
My world's nothing when you don't
I'm not here without a shield
Can't go back now

Both hands tied behind my back with nothing
Oh no, these times when we climb so fast to fall again
Why we gotta fall for it now
I never meant to start a war
You know I never wanna hurt you
Don't even know what we're fighting for

Why does love always feel like a battlefield, a battlefield, a battlefield?
Why does love always feel like..

Can't swallow our pride,
Neither of us wanna raise that flag,
If we can't surrender then we both gonna lose what we had, oh no

Both hands tied behind my back with nothing
Oh no, these times when we climb so fast to fall again
I don't wanna fall for it now
I never meant to start a war
You know I never wanna hurt you
Don't even know what we're fighting for

Why does love always feel like a battlefield, a battlefield, a battlefield?

I guess you better go and get your armor, (get your armor) get your armor
I guess you better go and get your armor, (get your armor) get your armor
I guess you better go and get your...

We could pretend that we are friends tonight
And in the morning we'll wake up and we'll be alright
Cause baby we don't have to fight
And I don't want this love to feel like..

A battlefield, a battlefield, a battlefield,
Why does love always feel like a battlefield, a battlefield, a battlefield

I guess you better go and get your armor...

I never meant to start a war
You know I never wanna hurt you
Don't even know what we're fighting for (fighting, fighting for)

Why does love always feel like a battlefield, a battlefield, a battlefield?

I guess you better go and get your armor, (get your armor) get your armor
I guess you better go and get your armor, (get your armor) get your armor

I'm not much into this style of music, but this song is POWERFUL! Click here to see the music video! [link]

I had this idea of a wolf crying blood as she ponders on the fights she gets into with her beloved hence the scratches on her face. I think of this every time I listen to this beautiful song.

Graphite lineart with coloration in photoshop elements3.0. Textures belong to (though you can barely see hers) and me .

About an hour and fifteen minutes of work total including conceptual lineart, coloring, and editing

Thank you. I can't wait till I get my new tablet pen cuz then I might be able to do some better photoshopped pixures. This was sooper fast picture I did just to get the nagging idea out of my head cuz my sister kept playing "Battlefield" over and over...

I know a song by Blind Guardian called Battlefield and it's about war, haha!

It's always good to get those ideas out...

Those ideas, when I get them, bubble up and burst and completely dissolve if I don't get SOMETHING out right away (whether it be a cheap sketch or totally awesome). then the inspiration and motivation is lost and is SOOOOOOO hard to get back. That's why I keep blank paper (not necessarily a sketchbook) and pencils with me at all times now

I usually sit there and start drawing up a shape and then an idea starts hitting me and I develop the idea further til it becomes something. I might just draw a ref sheet for my 1st OC because I don't have a half decent concept sheet for her. And then I have a few more I need to do of my older characters. Some of them though, I just haven't gotten down on paper.
