Description So as my twitter followers know, I haven't been posting a ton because I've been taking forever on this...
These are characters from one of my favorite books series, The Lunar Chronicles--a super awesome series that puts a futuristic twist on classic fairytales like Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, and Snow White. I'm not an avid reader in the slightest, so that fact that I really enjoyed this series speaks some serious volumes.

Anyways, the reason I took so long on this was because I had to draw these guys from the books' descriptions as opposed to visual references (though I did look at others' fanart for some inspiration). I had a lot of fun and I'm really happy with how this turned out <3

Hope you like!

There are the couples... and then there's Iko off to the side. My favorite android needs a dude.
Great artwork, btw. I just love Cress's expression!

about 4 days ago I knew about this sga ... and I can not think of anything else !!!
I will think of a worthy review or opinion later ...
but your fanart are beautiful!
that of Cinder / Kai and Cress / Thorne and they are the best !!!!
That look of Thorne !!!
the truth I never was clear how is the degree of beauty of Cinder but every time I think of Cress I think of a lovely teenager with problems of sociability !!!! and Thorne as a Don Juan with Corazon!
oh iko !!!!!

Awesome! I really like how you drew wold because how lots of people draw him I feel doesn't fit as well but how you did it it fit wonderfully! Nice job!

Thank you!! I feel the same way, I don't think it ever mentions him having a beard (cause how else would Scarlet notice all the scars on his cheeks/lips/whatever-it-was lo)

This just fit my image of him better, makes him less scary and more vulnerable I think xD

well unless you're drawing him as he in in Winter (i'm not going to spoil) then of coarse he looks different.

Sammmeeeeee!

I want to purchase copies of all cresswell art and hang them all over my wall and ceilinggg ;w;
((they might be the main thing I live for o-o))

Ever read Cress, but only the chapters following Cress and/or Thorne? It's oddly fun.

Hiyukee In reply to Coloured-Scales [2017-08-06 15:41:36 +0000 UTC]

Honestly that sounds hella cute ;0;

And no, I haven't! Sounds interesting though, is it really all that different from reading them between the other chapters? :0

Coloured-Scales In reply to Hiyukee [2017-08-06 20:28:19 +0000 UTC]

It is very different! You only see and know what they see and know, which can lead to understanding them even better c:

I really like Winter as a character, she was pretty cool. But I also love Cress and Iko! And Scarlet. And Cinder. Oh my. As for the guys, I really like Thorne and Wolf. And goodness, I love all the ships, but I really liked the way Scarlet and Wolf threw my emotions into the mud ;0; how about you?

Hiyukee In reply to peachy-pencils [2017-08-02 04:04:21 +0000 UTC]

Hahaha that's a great answer xD
You're right tho, all the girls are awesome :0 I love that they're all badasses in their own ways ;v;

For the guys--gah I like them all, again xD I think I like whoever is highlighted the most, in Cinder I liked Kai, in Scarlet I liked Wolf, etc~

As for the ships... the first time I read through I totally agree, Scarlet and Wolf had my dyingggg but reading through a second time, I really like Thorne and Cress, but maybe because I'm into Thorne's funny, cocky personality type :0

Same here! Each book a different character was my fave XP I've noticed Thorne's type of character is one of my fave types too. The only thing that skeeved me out just a bit was his and Cress' age gap, but at least it was written well! The whole series was super great. I remember after I finished reading Cinder, I was so frustrated that the next one wasn't out yet X0

Hiyukee In reply to peachy-pencils [2017-08-02 04:11:43 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I see what you mean, though the age gap between Scarlet and wolf is even worse 8I
Idk I was able to look past the Thorne/Cress age gap because I had a guy in my class who's birthday was during the summer, so he was like already 20 after we graduated, and he used to date a sophomore (who, when he turned 20, was technically a junior) so idk, I guess when I thought of it that way, it didn't too bad :0

YEAH, RIGHT?? Haha when I read it I was still a dumbass child and I didn't realize that it ended the way it ended because there were more books coming, I thought it just ended absolutely on the huge cliffhanger and I was like, "Man, this book was great but the way it ended totally ruined everything :/"
