//touches all the laces and patterns in the designs *q*<333

These are Lucifer and Cinder, from Bahamutia 's story ´3` Lucifer is a prince, who later becomes king, and Cinder is his page. They grew up together, but at some point Cinder gets kidnapped and disappears for years ;A; Once he returns again, Lucifer is already king, and unfortunately: A different person ;3; Lucifer is now a mad, obsessing and very possessive king, yet Cinder doesn't realize this. He stays by his side, only wishing for Lucifer's happiness Q3Q

Aaaah drawing a mad, possessive character is quite difficult to do, but it was fun trying to picture that on his expression and face ;7; 
Also Bahamutia is so organized omg! *0*<3 I was given a nice spreadsheet with many different prompts and I could actually pick the one I would like to work on! /0/ I made sketches for 2 of the prompts, and in the end we decided on this one: Lucifer exchanging crowns/head ornaments with Cinder ´u` Cinder gets Lucifer's royal crown, while Lucifer gets a nice flower crown heeee

Talking about flowers: I seem to draw some in like every of my latest commissions omg Φ-Φb Nice! But...DON'T DRAW HYDRANGEAS. WHATEVER YOU DO, JUST DON'T DRAW THEM They drove me crazy omg so many tiny flowers making up one big fat flower LMAO _(:3_)TL
But welp, I wanted to draw them because of their meaning: On the positive side, they symbolize "understanding" and "heartfelt emotions", as well as gratitude. On the negative side though, they relate to heartlessness, vanity and boastfulness. 
I thought it fit the two characters, and their contrasting personalities And if I had more patience I would have added more of them but I was so fed up with drawing them by hand that I just gave up omg //sryyyyyyy

In any case, this picture was really lovely to work on! I JUST LOVED THE DESIGNS SO MUCH OMG LOOK AT THE SHINY DETAILS //gimme shiny designs haha <333

Welp, hope you like it!

the HAIR and the FEATHERS AHHH
Goodness dear, your ability to render details is amazing as always! Yet despite how detailed you go the whole picture is still looks complete and doesn't suffer. :3c I love the pinkish-purple tones you used for shading the characters (they're gorgeous btw  ) it looks so pretty with the sky and background! ; 7 ;

Omg Kuyu thank you so much! QuQ Rendering different materials is always difficult, but it's very good experience to try making them!

And yay!! Really glad you the pinkish-purple tone! I wanna try and use it more often if possible and if it fits with the colorscheme ´u` 

And heee thank you so much!

GET READY FOR A LONG-ASS COMMENT KON-SENPAI, I PROMISED~~~ ;DDDDDDD


W-why is it that everything single time, your art just gets more and more beautiful???? My kokoro can't take it wahhhhhh *cries from beauty overload* ///v/// I love EVERYTHING about this piece oh my goodness. 


First of all, THE COLORS. PINK AND PURPLE ARE MY FAVORITE COLORS SO WHEN I SEE THAT YOU USED THEM TO SHADE EVERYTHING SO PRETTILY I CRY FROM HAPPINESS AHHHHHH~~~ Seriously, the way you shaded Lucifer's hair is SO LOVELY; the pinks and purple hues really compliment his blonde hair!! *O* I also love the way you paint skies, because the clouds look so fuwafuwa and soft hehehe~~~


Secondly, the background is so nice??? Like how do you even draw fountains??? xD The columns in the back also look really cool and detailed! ^-^ I also love how your perspectives are always a bit slanted so it looks more interesting to the eye. (((((:


Lastly, THE DETAILS ON THE CLOTHING are A++. THAT FEATHER CAPE. Holy crap. I love how you did the individual feathers peaking out! And the gold details everywhere, that must have taken forever oh my gosh. ;O;


Great job as usual Kon-senpai!!! ///w/// I love seeing your art evolve~~~ <33333333 (Also, thanks for always reading my long comments, I hope they don't bother you ahahaha xD)

AAAH KIRI THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE LOVELY COMMENT!
//and omg please just call me Kon ;u; THE SENPAI PART MAKES ME BLUSH /)////(\

Oh my Q0Q This is so nice to know! I'm really glad you like everything!! ;7; 

Yes, it was really nice to shade everything with pink and purple *q* Totally enjoyed it! AND HAHA FUWAFUWA CLOUDS OMG THAT'S SO CUTE

Glad you like the background as well!! And haha yeah, I suppose the perspective isn't as strict and 100%ly correct sometimes, but I really enjoy "curving" the lines and distorting them a tiny bit to make them more pleasing to the eye ;7; So really happy you like them!! 

The feather cape was really really fun!! It took some time but omg I totally enjoyed AND I LOVE GOLD, NOT HIDING IT AT ALL! XD 

Thank you so much again Kiri! AND OMG WHAT ARE YOU SAYING! I LOVE READING YOUR COMMENTS! THEY MAKE ME SMILE SO MUCH!! And totally give me the motivation to keep doing my best, so THANK YOU!

Dat cape. I love capes, and I love feathers, and I love textiles with textures so that is awesome.
And those boots! I love long boots, and I love the texture and details to them. The details are accurate to various pieces.
You can also tell you love shiny things, you are very good at not making it cheesy, but still beautiful.
I love your sky and clouds. So many shades of colors in everything makes it look even more natural
Your flowers are gorgeous as always, even without patience xD

Also just on a side note...your architecture fits pretty accurately as well. Newer eras (like France during Louis XIV) would actually take over older structures in places like Italy and add things like fountains and various ornamentation to them to make them less Roman/Greek and often put gardens in them and such.
Sorry for the mini Art History lesson (which you probably already know OTL) I just like that I learning this stuff and it keep showing up in my life.

//always reads your comments and sits there with this expression cuz "Ooooh, I'm learning something new!" Seriously! You always surprise me with this and that Makky!

First of all thanks for the lovely comment as always dear!!
Oh god YES such boots are totally LOVE *q* A-AND--- I GUESS IT'S VERY APPARENT THAT I LIKE SHINY AND SPARKLES BY NOW-- I REGRET NOTHING

And thanks for pointing out the architecture! I guess living in Greece, and seeing that combination of old and modern all the time, (plus living in Austria and seeing other such combinations) has kinda integrated into my mind's "automatic generation of architecture/environments" haha _(:3_)TL 
I guess when it comes to backgrounds that involve fantasy buildings, I can't help adding Roman/Greek elements, since they are kinda the norm for me (I see such things constantly when going out etc) And yes yes! It's totally true that this "marriage" of old and new, like adding fountains to old pillars/structures, is something that you see often  
AND NO NEED TO APOLOGIZE MAKKY! It's really fun to hear about your classes and I love it when you point things out! Teaches me things too! //like, right now, I want to research on France's architecture *-* I'm not very familiar with it or with Louis' XIV era, so it made me curious!!

Thanks again for the comment!! ´3`<33

AIWEJFADS *INSERT LOUD SCREAMS* I don't even know where to begin with this amazing piece!

Firstly, thank you for drawing our children so beautifully, I love the light texture on the image and I love, love, love how you did their expressions and their hair. Cinder is just the perfect amount of innocent and trusting and Lucifer has that dark glint to him. You did so well!  Also, a big thanks to you for doing all those details and making everything shine! You made everything look so sleek and clean, its just gorgeous. 

You did just as amazingly on the background. The castle in the far back, the arches, the fountain, everything comes together so nicely but those flowers and their meaning. I can't even. Its such an honor to know that you put that much thought into it just for this.

Thank you again for the amazing work! I love it so much gahk ;awiefajsd  ~ I can't thank you enough!

Ahh, just so this note makes sense iaweaowfsd Lucifer is my child, while Cinder belongs to Bahamutia.

OH MY!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!
Aaah I wasn't aware Lucifer belongs to you! So before I reply to the rest of your lovely comment and before I forget, just wanted to ask: Should I credit you in the description?  

But omgomgogmomg thank you again!!! I'm so happy you're pleased with how the picture turned out! /)///u//(\ Displaying their contracting personalities was kinda tricky, but so glad you like how it came out OMG SO RELIEVED Q7Q
And haha the background and the flowers were really fun! And no need to thank me!! I just love drawing and can't help but spend time putting thought into each piece ;u; //I spend lots of hours on my drawings after all so yeah, I get attached and this leads to searching out a thing or two about flower symbolism and etc ;//u//;

Waaaaah you're welcome and thank you too as well for having such good characters and a creativity-sparking story/setting!
