Description I am really proud of this drawing - please full view!

It's really detailed and emotive - and all drawn in black ball point pen!!!

(Edit 2010: Oh my god I sound so dorky up there. Sorry I just checked on this pic for old times sake and my artist comments from back then... ahahha so much fail).

By the way, I DON'T LIKE FEATHERS ANYMORE. Nah, they're alright. Just a pain to colour in with pen, that's all. A callous has developed near the base of my thumb coz of those feathers...

I'll get to the point. This is Calic Cepesu, a vampire from book one of the Korean manhwa, The Tarot Cafe. This is my first proper fanart, I guess...

He (yes, it's MALE, ) was in love with a woman named Isabel, but towards the middle of the story she died from falling from the top of a tower. (Tragic and stuff, I know). Whilst trying to save her, Calic had to expose himself to the sunlight, causing him to go blind. I drew him in this picture mourning silently over Isabel's memory. The black feathers give it a more sad feeling overall, don't you think?

If anyone says his clothing makes him look more like a girl, I agree. That's partly my fault because I "accidently" drew them like that.

No, really.

She threw herself from the tower because he had drunken the blood of her one and only sister. It is because of Calic that I knew that dead people's blood was like poison to vampires when watching Interview with the Vampire.

It's looks amazing.But the outfit's not really that girly,though.
And I felt quite emotional when I saw the look on his face.Such a tragic story...
Still,amazing job here.

Thanks soooo much! I appreciate the fave and comment. I'm not so fussed over it's popularity, to be honest. It's there - if people want to look, comment and fave, then that's great anyway. ^_^ I'm just happy to be sharing my art.

I admit it does feel great to get positive feedback and faves, but I'm contented enough even if people just take a look. Hmmmm, maybe I should value comments and faves more I suppose. It does help an artist improve, after all.

*sigh* you never fail to amaze me Amanda. Seriously, I can't even imagining putting this much effort and detail into something. Love the hair and detail in the collar especially. The emotion in the face was very well done too.

Oh and, of course, kudos on the feathers. *wink*

I just happen to enjoy drawing in detail Sometimes I'm not bothered to, but usually I love doing it. Thanks for acknowledging! The collar and hair is teh smex. I'm glad you like the emotion I captured too. ^_^Oh, and thanks for the kudos on the feathers!!! They caused me sooooo much damn pain . hahah
That flower in the corner, I don't even know what the hell it is. I was gonna draw a rose but ended up with THAT instead...? O_o

Thanks so much! It's actually drawn in pen though, not pencil! XD I'm really happy you like the detail I put into the hair and clothing by the way. It took a fair amount of time, but it was worth it. And you're the first person to fave it! Wahoo!

XD oh ok still a super drawing though. I draw sometimes but tend to rush things so it looks kinda scruffy and messy. maybe one day i'll actually get serious about my traditional arts and do something i can be proud off... we'll see ^^'
