Description There's something so tragic about a wilting rose.
A bitter irony in what becomes sweeter as it dies.
Such a fate must possess a certain allure; you
shine once and then you fade, leaving behind only
a shadow of what you once were.

Maybe that's what we all want.


... Yeeeeaaaaah...
This was a relatively quick thing, too. Very sketchy, didn't come out well, disappointed, blah, blah, blah.
I suppose I was just playing with different ideas, or something to that effect.
Used IC Lang as my guinea pig. :\

IC = ~AbandonedDreams
Flower = White rose. <3

I looooooove getting white roses. *hint hint cough cough nudge nudge*

Edit: I had to re-upload this because something about 'read only mode' raped it up the ass. :\

There's possibly nothing to improve when it comes to the posturing job in the this piece. That's about as perfect a job as anyone can do.

Nice work!

RaiKen25 [2006-04-19 14:50:30 +0000 UTC]

Ah well, I guess I'll fanboy this art too. I like my fair share of somber pieces - it's got a 'I'm a punk but I'm still a girl' feel to it. Something about it just makes me want to, hmmm...run my hand through her hair...then lightly kiss the back of her neck...then, well, I guess I'll stop there. For now.

So you like white roses, hn? And you didn't tell me this??? That is vital Playa info you withheld from me~! I see how it is...*nods* now I shall have to do a pic with this info in mind... This will definitely be a 'Playa Procella' pic instead of a 'Master'. XD

Too sweet for words. Except sweet.
Because it is, truly truly sweet. (as in DUDE, not aww)
There's a good colour thing going on there, the white with the black and the skin tones.
It's like a massive cat curled up into a small basket, that's how delicious it is to me.

boulew [2005-02-21 17:18:24 +0000 UTC]

I think you've done a great job on giving her a very disheveled look, messing up the hair had to have been a difficult task given how many different strands there are lying about. The little details like the ash on the cigarette and the fingertips...the little bits of color thrown in here and there by the jewelry, all of these really add up to an impressive piece. Very well done.

fallys [2005-02-21 06:23:28 +0000 UTC]

Ooh, awesome--it's the full version. I still think the eye style looks a little different from how you usually draw your eyes, and I'm not sure why. For some reason it has a less anime-feel to them. I love the skin coloring, and the light effects is pretty well done. Even though I'm pretty sure it's because of the angle and light, I still like how one side of her face is dark and the other is in the light. It kind of seems as though the rose is glowing.

Black nail polish...yay. And the wilting white rose looks very lovely, as I have said before. I think my statement stands correct when I mentioned that it looks rather real.

Don't believe I ever mentioned as to how much I love her piercing. Something about multiple ear-piercings I find I just really love.

Great job. I look forward to seeing more of your work, as always.

And I need to stop associating red with Lang anyways. :\
