Description So yesterday, I told my Chemistry and Physics homework to shove it because Ladd Russo practically had his shotgun pointed at my brains to draw him and his lovely lady Lua.

... And sp this picture happened Ladd and Lua from my current favorite anime, Baccano! (Yep, suck it DRRR)

But I'm not gonna be able to finish it for a month or so, after my finals are over, back home to my paints and markers T_T

Aaaand if I have the energy to draw that damn couch again I really would love to make a companion piece to this with Vino and his lady, Chane!

(That peacock back there? Totally wasn't a reaction to any thoughts like "Dammit I drew them too far to the left!!!!!")

やさしいコメント、どうもありがとうございます!

えーとこれはですね、「バッカーノ!」って言う日本のアニメのファンイラストです。えへへ、このカップル大好きなんですよ。
(上の英語確かにややこしいです。あんまりちゃんとした文を書いてません(汗))
この「バッカーノ!」のアニメの元は小説で、書いた人は最近人気があった「デュラララ!」を作った小説家と同じです。私はバッカーノのほうが好きなのにDeArt ではデュラララのほうが人気があるみたいです。悲しいです。はは。
れいさんはアニメとか見ますか?私はどっちかと言うとマンガ派なんですけどたま~にアニメにはまってしまいますOrz

白雪姫カーク!?うわ、とっても楽しみです!!!送ってくださってどうもありがとうございます☆!!!

うわぁ、今アニメの動画見てきました。

面白そうですね~!
レンタルでみようかなぁ。

私は、全然流行りのアニメとか観ないんですよ~。だから教えてもらったら凄く嬉しいです^^
アニメでもこういう渋い感じの絵が好きですね。そそられます(笑)

漫画はガンガンに観ますよ!
「宇宙兄弟」とか、「GANTZ」、「裁判長!」「新クロサギ」「黒執事」をレンタルして今せっせこ見てます^^
買うよりレンタルの方が断然お得です~。
アメリカにはレンタル漫画とか有りますか?
アニーさんは日本語読めるから、ほんと気になる漫画があれば言って下さいね^^。実費で送りますから~ww。

本当に面白いですよ~!レンタルしてみても損はないと思いますよ☆たしか全部で15,16回分しかなかったと思いますからけっこう短いアニメだったんです。だから見るのにもあんまり時間はとられないと思います。

流行のアニメって私もあんまり観ないんです、実は。たいがいネットで面白そうなアニメを見つけて退屈しのぎに観てます。だってついこの前観てたアニメなんてあの有名な「エヴァンゲリオン」だったんですよ...もう作られてから何年経ってるか...(汗)面白かったですけど♪

アメリカじゃあアニメだけをレンタルするのも多苦労だからanimecrazy.net って言うサイトで観てるんです。あんまり画像はよくないですがそういうのが気にならないんでとっても便利です☆

う~んレンタル漫画ってコミックスのことですか?だったらありませんね~アメリカじゃ。あ、図書館で漫画を何作かはおいてますけど、それぐらいです。もっとでかい町とかに行ったら漫画レンタルもあるんじゃないかと思いますけど。

I kind of like it in all black and white, although I'd still love to see color ;w;

And I would really love to see Vino and Chane!

And Ennis and Firo ;w; That would really make my day, of course, this stills stands fantastically on its own ♥

Actually, depending on how much I more inkinking I decide to do before I actually color it, I might have a more compositionally balanced all black and white version of pic of this too XD

Sigggh believe me, I really want to draw Vino and Chane too But that chair... Maybe they'll sit in something else less annoying to draw lol

Ohh and Firo and Ennis is a good idea! I always forget they'd also be a cute couple!! I'll think about it

Glad you liked it, thank you!!!

That'd be cool to see C:

Ahaha, you could draw them on top of a train? xD

Oh man, they're the bestest ;w;
Did you ever read the novels, or just watch the anime? Because I'd hate to talk about them and spoil things xD

No problem! ♥

takoyakidaisuki In reply to krl2432 [2010-11-13 02:34:02 +0000 UTC]

Lol I acutally already have a really basic sketch of Vino, Chane, and Ladd on top of the train I'd love to be able to finish that someday, too.

Ah, and thanks for asking, because I actually haven't read the novels. I fully intend on doing so once I can get ahold of them, though!

Buuut, does this means Firo and Ennis become an actual couple in the novels? That's so adorable XD

krl2432 In reply to takoyakidaisuki [2010-11-14 03:38:17 +0000 UTC]

Oooh, that sounds fantastic! ♥

Ahaha, yeah the anime unfortunately waters down quite a but of really cool scenes ;w;
But, they kinda had to, otherwise the anime would have /had/ to go into some other things that I don't think the animators intended on animating. Not that I would have minded a longer series, but if they were aiming for a small number of episodes I guess some things just had to be watered down.

Yesssss, it's the bestest ;w;

Me too! But my love for LaddxLua is tied to my love for VinoxChane. I really can't decide which couple is sweeter (in their own demented ways)!

Glad you liked it, thanks!

I don't know what's up with that lady. (That might be because I haven't read the novels) but I really would like eventually find out what her deal with Ladd is. Like, how does that kind of relationship even start??? lol

Forest-Paix In reply to takoyakidaisuki [2010-11-13 18:32:07 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for the fav btw!! I have only read a few chapters of the novels online, can't find the rest I've watched the anime though. I don't know, I read somewhere that she seems to take pleasure in Ladd's promise to kill her after he kills everybody else, strange.

I've always wondered what WIP meant.. anyways. You are amazing! The peacock is probably my favorite part, you pulled of the feathers really well, and I bless your ability to draw ruffles *bows*. Maybe if I stare long enough i'll understand... maybe get closer to the screen...? (I'm about half an inch now)... Hmm... I can feel it getting better. Oh yeah!

lol

Good work! Please keep drawing!
We should go get Mochi again sometime, ya? End of the year is coming up quick!

Goodluck!

WIP = work in progress Don't worry, it took me forever to figure out orz.

ruffles are one of my favorite. It's like, if I have to clothe that beautiful naked base of a body I initially drew, I might as well make the clothes as pleasing as possible. Which, for me, would be details and more details--like ruffles. (btw I learned ruffles studying CLAMP. They are MASTERS at that stuff XD)

Thanks for the compliment, I really appreciate it! And we definitely have to go to Mochi's again! So yummy

Wow, this is so beautiful! I love the details on it, and look forward to when you can color it *^* (Know the feeling, BTW, "ORZ I have a bunch of WIPs myself because of college~)

Thank you!! I can't wait to color it but I've got the last leg of the semester to get through... no real artistic endevours until that's over, sigh. But so does everyone else in college (or in real life D, I guess, unless you're in art school/are an artist lol

Thanks! I'd like to know how this is going to look finished myself XD But I've got plenty of time to think about it, I guess!

O-O finals are daunting but I'll try my best, thanks again!
