Description

_{Placing a smile at the perfect event,
Gracing your skin with the side of my hand.
If I ever leave I could learn to miss you
But "Sentimental Boy" is my nom de plume

Let me save you, hold this rope

I may never sleep tonight,
As long as you're still burning bright.
If I could trade mistakes for sheep,
Count me away before you sleep.
I'll stay awake till I trade my mistakes
Or they fade away..

Ugh, I really, really hate how my desktop makes the colors on this look. Everything is really dark and I can't fix it without it messing up how things look on other websites. v.v

Anyways, aside from that I really, really love how this turned out. On my laptop, it looks perfect. I'm in love with every panel and the lyrics above were the driving force behind this entire piece. I've probably listened to that song close to a hundred times by now because I've been playing it on repeat all day/night.

Eclipse's hair was a pain in my butt, but luckily I pulled it off without too much of a headache. Arin's shading is a lot more heavy than the others I think, but it's alright. I don't mind too awfully much.

I think Shadow turned out REALLY nice for my first time drawing him and actually finishing the picture. I couldn't decide on the expression I wanted him to have- It changed between this and a gentle smile a couple times before I decide this suited him better. I imagine his relationship with her is sometimes very strained just due to how much of a handful she can be- but Ryder has a lot of redeeming qualities too, so he's probably come to appreciate them and that's why he sticks around.

This is the first time I've drawn Ezekiel smiling without him either being drunk or looking like he's about to wreck something. Tobi said something... uh. Must have happened before hand to make him this relaxed. And well, none of them are wearing clothes sooo. 8'D

Manic and Debris were the first pair I sketched up and I'm very pleased with out they both look. I'm still working on how they'd pair up in my little headverse, but I don't think it'd take too much effort. With similar backgrounds and the fact that they both are from Freedom Fighter groups, it's not hard to imagine them becoming allies and just getting close through trials of hardship and whatnot.

Anyway, hope y'all like it! I certainly put a lot of effort into making sure this one got finished. I see more than two characters in a picture and it usually makes me not wanna keep working on it, but this time I forced myself to push through until the end. xD It's 4:30 in the morning now and WAAAY passed my bedtime. Good thing I don't work tomorrow!

All of the ladies belong to me.
Ezekiel and Arin belong to
And Manic and Shadow belong to their respective companies.
The lyrics are from this song here! I suggest giving it a listen while viewing this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJr1Oh…}
