Description
This was supposed to be a simple piece...I wonder what happened to that idea. Done in watercolor pencil, pastels and markers on a scrap piece of black paper.
Semi-inspired by "Bring it Low," by the Juliana Theory and this song.
Have I no control, is my soul not mine?
Am I not just man, destiny defined?
Never to be ruled nor held to heel.
Not heaven or hell just the land between.
Am I not man, does my heart not bleed?
No Lord, no God, no hate, no pity, no pain, just ME.
Comprehend and countermand.
Synchronous guidance. I choose my way.
Never to be ruled nor held to heel.
Not heaven or hell just the land between.
Am I not man?
[Joy, Joy.]
So why do I love when I still feel pain?
When does it end, when is my work done?
Why am I lone and why do I feel that
I carry a sword through a battlefield?
So why do I love when I still feel pain?
When does it end, when is my work done?
Why do I fight and why do I feel that
I cary a sword, that I carry a sword?
Like the path to heaven or the road to hell
our choice is our own consequences bind.
We are the kings of wisdom, the fools as well.
We are the gods to many, we are humble men.
We who build great works just to break them down.
We who make our rules so we never fail.
Am I not man?
Joy~VNV Nation, I don't know why but that song just makes me thing of Screamer...

Finally, something about Armada I can be interested in!!
This is an excellent picture, the darkness you have surrounding him is like the whole lone wolf thing comes out.....and the colour scheme makes him stand out from the page. The detail is amazing too, and I'm really impressed by the fact that it's drawn in watercolour and pastel, because of the detail. Excellently done.

PA so late...
Anyway, this is beautiful. I know squat about this version of Starscream, but I can appreciate a serious expression like this and beautiful rendering when I see it. He looks ready to kick some aft.
Beautiful work.

I like the Armada redesign for Starscream. He's a lot less bulky. He always was one of my favorite G1 characters. I also like The Juliana Theory so double plus. The glow on his sword is nice.

Whoa.. pretty's! The black paper and the patels is a nice touch.
I also like the song too, especially this part of it:
So why do I love when I still feel pain?
When does it end, when is my work done?
Why am I lone and why do I feel that
I carry a sword through a battlefield?

AWESOME. Very dramatic. That's something you don't want to see if you're an Autobot...

Thanks. And to answer you question, no, Starscream isn't a leftie. It just so happens I draw things better on the right side of the paper than on the left.
