Description "You helped her make me." I restrained myself from touching him, knowing that my doing so would wake another million tiny memories the way touching Aumrin did.
"She helped me make you, Man Rui, at least in the beginning." He offered me a hand, as if he wanted a handshake. "Let me tell you the real story, Man Rui. You have been kept in her side far too long."

This is my entry to 's "Live Evil" Contest. LOL The two characters belong to her. The theme is gothic. Hehehe... Originally, this was supposed to be some sort of a wedding scene, but then the mechanics said that it should be a scene from the fic. LOL. Stupid me. Anyway, this is my first gothic themed drawing. Hope you like it. Oh, and please read delurianne's Live Evil fic. Very nice story, I tell ya.

This was done in photoshop. I added noise so it would give off an eerie effect (eerie? um... not really sure about that term...). I had fun inking the piece. Took me a long time though (my poor ballpen finally lost its ink to this piece... gotta buy a new one).
The background can be found in this [link] .

Well, that's it.

Wow. I love the costumes. Yay someone who appreciates that sort of colonial-victorian stuffs. Lately I've been mostly seeing those punk egl things that I don't favor as much. There is alot of detail on these costumes very nice. Ah.. the guy's face seems to need more shading because it's at night and the moon is from behind. The shoulders seem slightly off balance. Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm not that great with shoulders. Over all very good job ^^

Initio-et-Finem In reply to Rousoku-no-Akari [2004-09-01 08:13:44 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much! LOL You're right about shoulders actually. Hehehe I only noticed the shoulders when I finished inking the piece. You could say that I got lazy and decided to just ignore them. LOL
About the shading of the guy's face, hehehe... I'm not really good at shading especially when it comes to a night scene. I had trouble trying to shade his face so I decided to just lighten the shades so as to avoid any mistakes with the shading. But, it turned out to be very light... Oh, well...

Wow. Finally, a gothic themed art from you. Gusto ko to. Di ba I already told you that I like the Gothic look (As I told 0kushie0: Like the clothes but i don't like the pale skin very much... or was it shinji)? Wish I could draw one too...

Namimiss ko na kayo... Dun ka pa rin ba nakatira?(u know what i mean silly) Kasi pag bumisita ako para lam ko kung san ako pupunta.
