~ ~


Breath

Heavy with thoughts

As the seconds pass by


Irretrievably

I'm sinking deeper

Alone without you


Relentlessly

I'm counting the wounds

No one can heal them


Untouched

Life won't release me


Merciless

It's pulling me down

No one hears me scream


There is nothing left

From who I used to be

And no one stands by me


Song: "Atem" by Eisbrecher



I got hit by a song inspiration. Once again, thanks to Eisbrecher~ ♥


It's funny how you can listen to a song 200 times without paying much attention to it. But then, it's played in the right moment you suddenly hear a line that just fits so perfectly well to one of your characters that you realise how perfect that song actually is.

Not sure if it was a coincidence or if it's because of my mental struggles lately?!


Anyway, Avarus, you've just got another song for you~ ♥



Enjoy~

yours, Isi

You've no idea how powerful I think this piece is.    

The way you convey Avarus' utter desperation through his desperately grasping hand, his facial expression and the impression that he's sinking--it's stunning. And it fits so perfectly with the lyrics.   

What I also love about this piece is how the grey monochrome enhances this feeling of desperation (desperation is a dark emotion for me) and how the lighting seems to give the impression that the salvation is steadily getting further and further away. Also, I liked how you used the bubbles and lighting to create the underwater effect.    

I'd say this is one of your best pieces to date.

Thank you!  

I'm glad it fits to the lyrics, after all I drew the picture to the lyrics at least I captured the mental image I got while listening to it~

I didn't choose the colour for showing desperation but rather because Avarus is drowning. The deeper you get the less colours you see in the deep sea. That was the main reason your idea is a nice side effect
Your right with the light of hope that he'll probably never reach...

Thank you so much I'm glad you love it that much!

There is a lot you put into this one. I like the smaller details you did, like the words in the background, the bubbles, and the hand. There is a good amount of emotion here too you drew

Great job here!

Thank you for your kind words! It makes me so happy to read that someone keeps an eye on the details I draw.

And I'm glad to hear that the emotions come across! First I thought it would be better to put the translated lyrics on the piece itself, but since a German song inspired me I kept the original lyrics on the picture and put the translation into the description. And it makes me happy to see that the picture itself already gives the emotions away that are actually also told by the lyrics.

You are very welcome! I am just one guy online XD but I like to try to say what is on my mind when I can. You do great with showing what you want to with the drawings you do

but it's people like you that makes an artist smile just by reading your comments.

Not many people do take their time commenting what they think about the picture ♥

Ohhh another song-related arts!! I'm excited to see more of these, since I feel like it's such a neat way to learn more about a character.

You captured the emotion in this rlly well -- with the dark colors, expression, the handing reaching out towards the light. It gives me the feeling of hopelessness that he seems to be feeling. And is he even crying?? Isi, how dare you. This poor bb, I can feel his pain and I really just wanna give him a hug, if he allows it. ;3; Music is such a nice way to feel/release emotions, and it's interesting to see how you've taken those lyrics and applied them here, it worked so well!!

Also, Avarus, how does your hair still look so good...what hair supplies do you use...

also also, tiddie

Isi-Daddy In reply to Erizell [2019-05-10 06:58:45 +0000 UTC]

That is true, it's probably the best way to show a characters feelings and personality! Mainly Avarus because he almost gets all the songs :'DD he's my muse

YOU NOTICED THAT HE'S CRYING!!!! I wondered if someone would even see it because it's not that obvious but yes, you're right, he's crying :'3 ..... Hopelessness is the right feeling and it makes me so happy to hear that people actually feel the feelings I had for this song and Avarus in that moment :'3
Yes, just give him a hug, he won't like it, but he'll need it anyway ;3;

I just love playing with lyrics and music in pictures, it's one of my favourite things to do, sometimes music only inspires me for a certain pic, but sometimes it's very visual like this one :'3

hahaha yes, he's the master of good-looking hair! :'DD But I don't know what kind of hair supplies he's using, I only know they are not the ones I use :'D

ehehehehehhe :3c

Musics always helping us (I love when this happen! but hate too because I always make my baby suffer)

one of my favourites things is emotional illustrations! they always will be great! ALWAYS!
sometimes I like to feel down with drawing lol
and this sketch-look makes it more... emotional... I can't find the right words...
WHAT I WANT TO SAY IS I LOVED! and poor Avarus

I also love music when it hits me with inspiration but it's usually the sad ones that makes me draw something. :'3 But there was also already some happy songs which I couldn't upload here because spoilers :'D


aaaah thank you so much!!!! I'm so happy to hear that people get emotional looking at this lil sketch. Seems like I could capture his emotional state here well enough :'3c

THANK YOU AGAIN! And yes, poor baby, but he'll survive, somehow eh

I love it when songs fit my characters. Makes envisioning them more real, I think.

Isi-Daddy In reply to mysterykit42 [2019-04-14 13:45:39 +0000 UTC]

Same for me. I don't know if it's good or bad that most of the songs fit zu Avarus. I've probably about 10 songs for him, and some characters don't even have one. It's just very easy to find songs for him. Ok it's rather like the songs find me, I'm not really looking for them

Beautiful work. I like the composition and the colours style.
The cold colours, the dramatic pose and the use of light express very well the character's feelings of fear and despair and his needs for help. 
If I must find a defect, I think the hand is a little out of proportion to the body,  but for the rest it is very good.

That is some emotional piece of art here I really like how this sketch looks with the grey blue as the primal colour and you can really see how Avarus is suffering screaming for help - the outstretched hand framing the lyrics are really nice :'3
I was just going to say 'wow Isi got poetic' then I read it was from a song :'D that doesn't make it worse though I love getting inspiration from songs

Isi-Daddy In reply to MicahandtheMoon [2019-04-12 19:49:41 +0000 UTC]

Yes, maybe a little too emotional for my own good :'3

Thank you so much, I'm glad you like it :'3 ♥

the hand and his arm was something I worried before I started that sketch but luckily it worked out :'3

I somehow like to work with lyrics on a picture, I don't show it often officially but I did a few of these just less "coloured" :'3

hahaha yes, I'm not only good in drawing but perfectly well in writing too :'DD No not really, as I said before I love to work with lyrics, but I didn't write them, I only translated them x'D

MicahandtheMoon In reply to Isi-Daddy [2019-04-12 20:14:10 +0000 UTC]

Sometimes it is okay to be emotional - that's what art is good for after all :'D 
happily it worked out great ^V^  
I did that sometimes too some years back it has been a while since I've done it last but I remember the appeal it is nice ^V^ 
Could have been neat though but alright that's okay we cannot be good at everything ^V^

You should do it again if you like! It's one of my favourite things to do <3
Exactly I also don't intend to become a good writer at least not on that way. I still have to get good somehow to write the dialogues for my story :'D
