Description
I figured I'd never get around to inking this, so here's the sketch for you guys to be amused with. If I do ever ink it, I'll post that up.Yes, those people in the dresses are Mello and Near from Death Note.
I drew this the same day as Sweet Lolita Near .The dresses are of my own design; Near is a sweet lolita and Mello is wa-loli (traditional Japanese or kimono-style lolita.)
Mello and Near are from the anime/manga Death Note, and belong to Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata.

I love this, the ribbon at NearΒ΄s hair makes him look so beautiful

Mello doesn't look too happy about being put in his outfit!

Heh sorry for Mello but I have to agree there...
π: 0 β©: 1
Yup! But it puts Near in the "spotlight", as usual, with Mello "behind" him.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yes, it does 
π: 0 β©: 1
XD Yeah, the frilly dress has to contribute to his displeasure at least a little, LOL
π: 0 β©: 1
I thought so 
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, well, he can blame his haircut for that, too.
π: 0 β©: 1
the haircut, and the style of clothing...and his eyes too. Some consider them feminine. -_-'
π: 0 β©: 1

They are very small...I think that's what makes them seem feminine as well. They are small compared to L's and Near's anyway. I do not think they make him look feminine. I believe it's his clothing and his haircut personally.
π: 0 β©: 1
Oh!
I think it just makes him look interesting--his eyes are much more slanty than L's or Near's, making him stand out, and yet he has the most Caucasian-looking coloring of the three. One fanfic plot of mine theorizes that he's half-Korean, half-Russian to account for the slanty eyes and coloring at once.
π: 0 β©: 1
I don't think that slant of eye...even half Russian, lends itself to be the Korean slant. I personally think Near's eyes are the closest to Korean in the entire series. I'm not saying that because I'm Korean and wish to draw one more similarity, but if you examine the shape of the Korean's eyes and then look at Near's, they are more similar than Mello's. I think Mello's eyes (because they are lifted slightly at the corners) are closer to Chinese eyes than Korean eyes. Koreans don't have the small lift in the corners like Mello has.
π: 0 β©: 1
Hehe...well, it's all up to interpretation of course, but here's a model who is half Russian, half Korean: [link] and here is a comparison pic of Mello: [link]
The levels of eye-slantiness don't seem THAT far from each other. 
Then again, you would know about how slanty or not-slanty Korean eyes are, LOL.
Ah, I love speculating about this kind of stuff...
π: 0 β©: 1
I don't think he could be. I would say that particular model got a lot more Russian looks than Korean.
Ah, the levels of eye-slantedness. You must remember the history of the asian cultures...the dominance of one culture and attempts at assimilating another. It happend several times throughout their histories, so yes, they will look very similar. 
And randomly in that pic of Mello...is it just me, or is one of his sets of beads missing a few? It looks short to me, but then again, that could be angle.
Also another random note: Mikhail is a Russian name meaning "One who resembles god" -_-' (Like I said, RANDOM)
π: 0 β©: 1
LOL; don't worry, when things confuse me I'm just more determined to learn to understand them. 
I think Mello's beads look odd because in the anime they made most of them white rather than the original all-red from the manga. That, and his black glove is in the way of the right side (our right, not his) of the necklace, so against his black vest it might look like beads are missing.
LOL; yes, Mikhail is a Russian name, but apparently Mello's name, Mihael, is Slovakian. More food for thought.
π: 0 β©: 1
Nah...it's not the color that is odd. It's the amount. You can see between two red beads, but there are only a few beeds there, as poosed to the full count. That might be angle, but I just wondered if they didn't bother to count them and just drew.
It could be Slovakian, or from Croatia...if you want to be general, from the middle of Europe, not the orient at all. I've never felt that he was Russian really. That's possibly why I don't see many similarities between the phto of Mello and the photo of the model you showed me.
Also, Mello = someone Hitler would have loved...blonde haired, and blue eyed -_-' 'nother random thing -_-'
π: 0 β©: 1
XD I really hadn't connected Mello and Hitler in a conversation until now...LOL. Math only seems bad to me because I just plain can't wrap my brain around what the instructions are even asking me to attempt. I don't understand it, like looking at text in another language written on a page.
I have no bias about where Mello is or isn't from.
π: 0 β©: 1
Wow...I feel oddly special, and sort of creeped out. I mean, I've never connected them in a conversation either, until now.
I guess I'm not like that. I can wrap my brain around most everything I've ever come in contact with so far in my life...it's just the preference for some subjects over others I suppose.
I guess that's why it's fanfiction y'know? I don't have a bias as to where he is from either, though it's fun to actually discover something similar in real life.
π: 0 β©: 1
I understand what you're saying, don't worry. I agree! Sweeping generalizations aren't good to have in anything, really.
You are lucky to be able to comprehend math.
π: 0 β©: 1
I'm glad you understand me!
Math is just...being able to analyze numbers and understand how certain factors make the numbers do different things. I guess that's the analytical side of me kicking in...letting me do math. -_-' What math did you last take?
I bet you just need to be taught in a more...creative veined way, if that makes sense. It's not changing what the numbers do (that can't be helped), but it might bring the numbers closer to your type of preferred learning?

Daaw, Near looks so sweet in a dress! Mello looks downright EVIL! I think he's trying to kill me with his mind bullets. o_O

Aww, they've been playing dress up? ^^ Matt was probably busy playing an online dress-up game instead of actually putting a dress on himself, I pressume? XD
π: 0 β©: 1
XD No, Matt's in a future lolita pic--him and L. I forgot about B, but maybe I'll draw him a loli pic, too.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yay! Gotta love lolitas. ^^ This should be entertaining *twiddles thumbs*
π: 0 β©: 1
I've gotta get some homework out of the way first...
π: 0 β©: 0
Aww, Near makes such a great little girl! XD
Mello looks like he's gonna kill us all though. x3

Just throw chocolate at him, that'll distract him while you run away!
π: 0 β©: 1
>o; *TOSS* >> << *RUNNNNNNS....!*
Mello: "I have mafia connections--I'll GET YOU!"
π: 0 β©: 1
Suuuure, Mello, suuuuure. XD
*runs away too*
π: 0 β©: 1
If you don't believe him, why are you running too?!
π: 0 β©: 1
Um...I need my exercise, that's why. XD
π: 0 β©: 1
EXERCISE?! *skids to stop* Crap, I didn't realize I was participating in that!
XD; Not to say that I NEVER exercise...but conventional ways of working out bore me thoroughly.

...I'm at a loss for words...
This is really well done, and your description of the colors makes me want to see you color this one. Their expressions are perfect, they really portray their characters through their faces and fashion. Speaking of which, your fashion has always been amazing on these characters. I find myself eagerly awaiting what you might put them in next.
Keep up the good work!

As for Wammy's boys and fashion, next up is Near in a teddy bear hat.
π: 0 β©: 1
That sounds adorable! It reminds me of Lain for some reason. Didn't she have bear pajamas or something in that series?
π: 0 β©: 1
I've never seen Serial Experiment Lain, so unfortunately I don't know.
π: 0 β©: 1
I got the series on VHS (man I'm old), and one of the tapes is in Japanese with English subs for some reason (I think it's the second tape).
π: 0 β©: 1

Yeah, but I mean, the case and everything matches up with the others perfectly, so it's almost like it was done intentionally. And given the series, that might very well be the case.
Lain's pretty good little anime, only about thirteen episodes long. Her character would interact with the Wammy's really well, since she's pretty odd herself. It's the story about how the line between the internet and the real world is beginning to disappear, and people with a profound connection to the internet are finding that they can do the same kinds of things in the real world now.

Ooh...sounds like an interesting series!
π: 0 β©: 1
I would recomend (that can't be spelled right) it, it's a little confusing but a good watch.
π: 0 β©: 1
Hehe; you only had one letter off, it's "recommend".
π: 0 β©: 1
That list has got to be getting pretty big by now. My own is getting a little out of hand as it is.
