New exactly what movie this was from without seeing the description or title. Excellent job, I love the glowing chest cavity.

thank you so much! at conventions most people dont realize that its a print of howl hahaha. i think people are used to the blond version of him OTL

He is much older through 90% of the movie, so that is understandable. But this is a very defining moment for his character so it is a beautiful choice for a composition. But right away I thought, "That kind of reminds me of Howl, oh and his chest is glowing did he just swallow the star? I have to click on this and see if it's Howl." And to be fair, I absolutely adore that movie, seen it many times.

I saw this and before I even read the title, I knew it was Howl. I ADORE this. You've clearly got a sharp, creative mind and I love how you gave such vibrant life to one of my all time favorite stories. If you've only seen the movie, you should definitely read the book.

Your quote is a tad off.
"You who swallowed a falling star, oh heartless man, your heart shall soon belong to me." At least I think

IΒ΄m no art genius (who is?) but...HOLY CRAP!! This one almost makes me cry, and that doesnt happen very often (never, in fact). The expression on his face... that spark in his eyes... AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Not to mention the AWESOME lighting effects... This one is my favorite work from you!

Thank you so muchhhh!!!! i loved the idea of howl eating that star and hwo it must have felt when he traded his heart for it T^T

What a great rendition of a beautiful scene! That was my favorite moment in the movie and I wish there had been more details about it in the book. I just think there's something very poetic about the whole idea of catching a falling star, and it tells a lot about the innocence of a child to give away his own heart just to save a fading spirit... It's the one thing that made me feel sympathy for Howl. Your drawing is awesome!

Thank you so much! and i agree it is very poetic. I dont know why i was so affected from the movie since the part was so brief, but i had to draw it and how i thought he must have felt.

You're welcome. 
Neither the movie nor the book tells us how Howl felt right after the exchange was made, but I would have liked to know. I'm sure it would have been a lot like your drawing. I don't know if the process hurt him a lot (with that fire ball going down, ouch! 
Calcifer had better not complain too much! Though finding himself stuck with such a weight as a human heart must have been weird for him too.

I can honestly say that this is my absolute favourite Howl realism. There's just so much emotion, while still holding on to the original character. The colours are superb. Lovely work!

I really love this piece and your style is wonderful. I love the realism and the colours you have chosen. I can tell this has taken you a long time and the quality is brilliant! I can't wait to see more Howl art (as you might have guessed he's one of my favourite characters). Keep up the excellent work!
