My most recent project, a failed one. The two characters are from an rp that I am in with one of my best friend on gaia whee
Tia is a wealthy vampire that makes a living off of buying and selling art pieces. Searching for a companion, she saved Vexx from the vampire slave trade. Vexx is an unknown beast that can manipulate shadows. With three natural forms, his beast, his human, and in between, he can easily loose control of his beast. His emotional scars keeps his from controlling him self completely.
Two frozen hearts came together, one needing to be warmed while the other wanted to be warmed. With one bite, they fell for each other hard. Tia yearns to heal and protect Vexx from his past and present pains, while Vexx is determined to protect Tia from his enemies and himself.
I was beaming with pride when I had finished the inking process... But i ruined the whole thing by coloring it. I had forgotten the highlights in the hair, and the color on the dress is unrealistic. I'm posting it because it shows my progress to becoming a professional artist, but only in black and white.
There are things that I love about the coloring, I love how Vexx's past turned out as well as his scars, and how Tia's skin ended.
The chains are symbols. Vexx and Tia are bound by the people and emotion of their past. Tia holds on to him tightly, trying to from both protect him. With Vexx's arms in the air, it shows that his is open and vulnerable. Since Tia is my character, I couldn't help but draw her as the protector and Vexx the Victem... With that thought in mind... I will draw a version 2, with Vexx as the Protector and Tia as the Victim. I'll add that to my project list whee
