Description Armin Arlert of Shingeki no Kyojin

Gift for ~falarae !

COPICs and guache on 8 x 10" canvas

Aaaah because I love the SnK soundtrack so much, I was listening to the track 'DOA' thinking "yes this is totally Armin's song" and basically drew it to the tune And I discovered that ARMIN IS A CUTIE-PIE OMG OMG ARMIN IS SO ADORABLE AND BADASS who couldn't love the little shota of SnK~

Happy birthday to ~falarae , though it is nowhere near the actual day! Armin's going to outlive everyone, so GOOD CHOICE. I'm pretty sure I'll be sobbing into any drawings I make of Levi in the future

Art-wise, sweet Armin's weapons are definitely his brains and his blades, and pretty much from the beginning it was "I MUST DRAW ARMIN WITH HIS BOOK!" but it's really hard to hold a book open while trying to get dramatic poses (no I don't have any photos of this attempt ) And UGH canvas gives the best finish but the surface will only hold like 3-4 colours so the colour depth is a lot less but then the CANVAS itself steps in and makes it looks amazing anyway amg yes And I still hate 3DMG, but the Survey cloak makes up for that

Oh god I can't even get over the fact that Armin's button nose is the most adorable thing ever omg seriously I love it so much omg must draw Armin again the cute bby

Thanks for the compliment! I'm really happy you think so; yeah I have to keep it simple because canvas doesn't absorb my ink half as well as paper does, so after the 3rd colour stuff just bleeds everywhere and doesn't have the same effect, but still, best textures
