Description

I'll remember the looks on their faces


Wanted to try out some backlighting (particularly with the white outlines but not a silhouette) so scribbled this out. I quite like the rough effect! It just feels really dramatic XD And somewhat unsettling, but i guess that's just Rire's gaze for you.

Both the lighting and his grin make me think of that one song from Esmeralda, you know? Like fire, hellfire, this fire in my skin.. Besides, there is a Jonathan Young version that would somewhat fit his voice.

Maybe if he was a priest he'd feel that way. .. Then again, no. I don't think so. He'd just bend her over an altar and... *cough*

It will if I'm in a protective bunker surrounded by holy items! lol XD Compared to me you certainly look like you know what the hell you're doing! Half the time I'm so brain dead from work I just look at what I've done and say "okay that's good enough"

Most of the time it's the next day after I finish! I'm so happy and glowing with pride, then I'll look at it after I post and be like "...crap!" But I think that's just how all artists are. We're super critical of ourselves (or at least I am )

I don't find it that unsettling but I'm weird (and have the Inquisitors to deal with) XD It does feel dramatic, and white outlines are always cool because yes XP Love the lighting, scribbe or otherwise XP

I feel like pictures of Rire where he's looking out at the audience tends to have a similar sort of ambience to those kinds of paintings where the eyes seem to follow you no matter which angle you look at it XD Heck yeah to the white outlines!! I really just wanted to do that but i didnt want to do the black out version so this was a nice mix haha. Maybe i should do more lighting like this later :V

If I could get back into drawing again, I know I'd love to do this kind of lighting. I think it's looking nice and polished. I look forward to it. <3
