Description This is an entry to ArtisticAnimanga's Summer School Contest.

Lord. This took me ages. XD These two people appeared in a really bad sketch I submitted a while ago.

The opposites in this picture are meant to be Pencil and Eraser...which I wasn't so sure if they could be considered opposites at first, but I asked and got an okay. So yeah, Chen Bee is the Pencil. And even though most pencils are yellow, I decided to make her color theme red, because red is simply a very sharp and bold color that excites. This boldness I associate with pencils. Shang Pi is the Eraser, with soothing, smooth blues since blue tends to be a calming color in contrast to red, a bold color. Red raises emotions, blue calms, ERASING (hardyharhar) those emotions.

So the girl is Chen Bee and the Boy is Shang Pi. Their names are both meant to be like puns. Chen Bee sounds like Qiānbǐ (铅笔) which means pencil in Chinese. Shang Pi is meant to sound like Xiàngpí (橡皮).

So...Profiles...yay~

Chen Bee is the red-haired girl. She is normal quite docile and soft-spoken. People describe her as your average liberal arts kind of girl. She usually wears her glasses (which are in her chest pocket in this picture. However, when she takes her glasses off, she becomes a bit...twisted and violent. She is OCD about her twin tails and takes a long time braiding every morning. She is a straight-A student and studies hard. However, she doesn't spend all her time studying. Her favorite activities encompass taking walks, listening to music, playing saxophone, playing video games (which is where her violent nature stems from), and sleeping. A LOT of sleeping. She is a black belt in both Karate and Taekwondo, though she doesn't like adhering to either styles of fighting. Even when she becomes violent, her voice still is quiet and very moe moe.

Shang Pi is the blue-haired boy. He is as outgoing as Chen Pi is shy (when she's not wearing her glasses). His way of speaking is very laid-back and easy, the voice of a slick businessman. He is a shameless skirt-chaser and flirts without restraint. The only exception is Chen Pi, because he claims that he "doesn't want to ruin the rare specimen of a complete liberal arts girl". His grades are average for all subjects except English, in which he gets A's effortlessly. He hates hanging out with only guys. In his free time, he going shopping with his family (which consists completely of girls, except for his father who is often at work), plays video games (sometimes with Chen Pi), reading Shakespeare, and hitting on girls. Unlike Chen Pi who sleeps often, Shang Pi has insomnia and experiences difficulty falling asleep at night.



To all of you who recognize the picture on the iPhone...you are freaking awesome. ^^
