And another repost of my work in progress.. I am pleased by this one and I do love the look I'm just really skitterish about the possiblity of ruining it with colouring.


Good Morning, Beloved
By Inu Hanyou Nikkie

~ The sky outside the open window was still dark, the sun has yet to arise heralding the start of a new day and the end to the moonless night. Inuyasha, still curled around the slumbering body of his mate Kagome, breathed deeply taking in the soft feminine scent of her body mingling with his heady masculine scent. He closed his eyes and nuzzled his nose back into her hair and sighed. They hadn’t performed the actual mating yet, they were waiting for Kagome’s birth control to take effect before they performed the ritual. But Kagome’s mother, as soon as she found out about the couple’s mating plans, went out and bought a larger bed for the two of them to sleep in. She almost picked them up a waterbed but quickly decided against it. Mrs. Higurashi wasn’t confident Inuyasha would react favourable at all to it, and he does have those rather sharp claws . . .

How long was it; that he waited before he finally confessed, he thought to himself. Too long and almost too late. Kagome was about to leave him and from the looks of it for good.

But he finally broke down, taking Kagome to a beautiful waterfall surrounded by a field of wildflowers and Sakura trees. There amongst the butterflies (especially that one that wouldn’t leave his ear alone, keh, stupid weak bug) he confessed his love to Kagome . . . in his usual tact of course. Maybe comparing Kagome to Ramen and Tessaiga was a bad way to do it but once she calmed down and realized Inuyasha was not making light or fun of her but speaking from a level he knew. Kagome understood it.

He needed her to nourish his soul and heart like he needed Ramen to nourish his body. Both had been starving from years, decades, maybe even centuries of neglect and abuse so that is why he always filled himself to capacity and then some whenever he could. He needed her to protect his hope, faith and heart the way Tessaiga protected his friends from enemies and him from himself. So many times he was broken while growing up, so many countless abuses he faced, so many countless rejections crushed him that when Kagome came she filled every crack, mended every broken piece, took the broken shredded wings of his heart’s essence and with her soft words, gentle touches, tender looks birthed a new hope within him, a new reason to wake up. A love to live. A life to love.

Rising himself up, he wanted to be looking into Kagome’s eyes when the sun’s rays washed over them and his transformation took place. Pressing his lips softly to her cheek, he kissed her with butterfly kisses. Kagome stirred slightly and a special sweet smile that only Inuyasha was privy to see spread across her beautiful features as she slowly made the transition from deep slumber to being awake.

“Good Morning, Beloved. I want to see your eyes when I change.”

I love this one as-is. If you do add color I'd recommend only doing the hair in solid tones, and at most, ading a light tint to their faces.
You can always make a duplicate of this and color the copy. That way if you don't like the way it comes out, you won't have ruined the original.

smacks head... why didn't I think of it... groans..

Solid tones? okay will do!... err... what is meant by tones?

Tones are all the stuff that fills in the blank areas; colors, shading, highlights, Letraset, pencil, ink, paint whatever. I guess that's sort of old school terminology nowadays, sorry 'bout that.

actually... I really don't know.. I know colour- lighten/darken - and smudging and selecting other colours for enhancing but really clueless with termiology.. Drops head onto desk... Sorryyyy...

Not to worry, I am so computer clueless that I usually use traditional art terminology. I'm likely causing unnessary confusion by my own ignorance.
To me smudging is something I do with my fingers, and "paint" is something I need water or turpentine to clean up.
Never apologize for asking for clarification. If more of us did that, there'd be a lot less misunderstanding in the world.

I should finger paint this weekend... might be very relaxing! I should pick up the non-toxic paint first though!

I do feel rather dumb when asking for clarifications.. especially in this age of technology.

Yah.. I removed it because of my fear/nerves that I was going to ruin it with colouring it.

Thanks. This one has the shading almost done.. I'm just antsy that I'm going to ruin it with colouring their hair, sheets and her top.

I have a hard time with shading. Most the time am trying to figure out if its in the right place or if it enough. I'm so lame, lol.

InuHanyou In reply to inuyashaloverr [2007-08-15 00:19:49 +0000 UTC]

the shading I think is almost done.. it's their black hair... what can I do so it won't smudge or look like a toddler got a hold of a jumbo pencil..
