Description Illustration of track five of Razia's Shadow. Although I think the end was quite rushed, I do like Razia's Shadow.

This was done for my Drawing final project at school. XD Quite proud of it, I think my ink painting is improving. :33

Tried to keep the style true to the original character designs. .w.

Indian ink on sketchbook paper.

HAHA I should, shouldn't I? I really like Pallis and Adakias, but never got to their part of the musical. (sigh) I'm just so lazy. Maybe one day... *_*;; (which is something I've said more than a year ago... ;_; Forgive me.)

Please do more... these are remarkable!

Genesis - I love how the creation of the world looked and how proud O seemed of Ahrima although it seemed short-lived.

The Missing Piece - You captured the beauty of my favorite song... no one understands but her, no one sees all I can do like she can and she loves me, and maybe now...
Nidria...

Life Is Looking Up - I'm always happy to see how people portray the lamps and they really were just so beautiful. And his rage and Barayas at the end was so well-done and you just knew what came next.

The Spider and the Lamps - I love the possessed look in Ahrima's eyes and the broken lamp shards. e looked despairing almost immediately.

Toba the Tura - He looks so scared here, even when he's on his knees I eel sorry for him and he's totally alone now... and Toba the Tura is ready to punish without distinction.

WOW thank you so much for faving all of them, and this really in-depth comment! I'm really glad you like them so much.
I actually did these for school, but I might continue. .w. Thanks for the support!

Genesis - it was my first piece so I wasn't very practiced, but I'm glad to find that my fears of it being difficult to understand were unfounded. !

The Missing Piece - I tried to show a sort of contrast between his anger at O and his love for Nidria (like the backgrounds where him and Nidria are together are lighter, as though she's his sun). I'm glad I did justice to your favourite song!

Life Is Looking Up - This is actually my favourite piece of all of them, because of the second-last panel. XD I'm glad that there's a feeling of suspense created when you see Barayas, because that's just what I was aiming for. :3

The Spider and the Lamps -

Toba the Tura - ;_; I felt really bad for Ahrima in this song, because he just throws away all his foolish pride (which takes a lot to do) in the face of all his regret and despair, and still Toba the Tura is not moved.

School, eh? Well I hope you did well and your welcome!

Genesis - X3 Not at all, it's easy to match it to the song

The Missing Piece - I noticed that! She really is his sun, and the light of his sun inspired the next song... She eased his anger, if only she was around near the end of Life is Looking Up.

Spider and the Lamps - X3 I hate what happens but I love everything about the song and again, he looks so possessed. Guess it'd be too much to ask for them to understand a spider manipulating him.

Toba the Tura - It may not have even been Tura fault entirely since I'm sure the other angels were angry, possibly even hurt when the lamps were burning everything. But I don't believe isolating him was the answer and he was sorry to everyone in the end, even O.

:3 Thanks again!

I always wondered where Nidria went after The Missing Piece.
Yeah, it would sound like an excuse. XDXD "The spider made me do it!"
Yeah. Everybody deserves a second chance!

Nidria was singing in "The Oracle" so my belief is that she also didn't believe Ahrima deserved his punishment on that level. They were the two singing "Our true love will be strong enough"... so my belief is she never stops loving him, even though Ahrima I'm guessing meets someone in the Shadows since he's the ancestor of Adakais.
X'D Right up there with "a dog ate my homework".
He did deserve something severe since their home was destroyed but if anything he should've been stripped of his "gifts", that way he'd have nothing to harm the land further with. Surely it was within O's power to take Ahrima's away.

Yeah, I was wondering how he'd 'sit at the top of his family tree' if there was nobody else in the darkness. XD
I found it interesting that Toba the Tura said "maybe the design's flawed" when he spoke to Ahrima. Wonder what he meant by that, because it sounds like he's questioning O. o_o

ShroudtheMessenger In reply to RunawayKid [2010-03-19 19:30:13 +0000 UTC]

Maybe Toba the Tura really didn't want to do it either. Maybe there was a flaw in that part of the story itself and maybe there were many who actually did agree with Ahrima but it was out of their hands. Maybe I'm just being hopeful.
XD I wondered tat too. One theory was maybe he and Nidria did start a life together before "Life Is Looking Up" and have kids and that his children got banished with Ahrima but 1) They'd tell us and 2) I don't think they'd do that to Nidria.
My last theory is that since Ahrima helped create the world, maybe he was capable of creating life too.

Oh yeah, that's a pretty good point. So they'd be his children of the darkness I suppose.
