Description "If only it were so simple,
to cruise through life smelling roses;
but the obstacles blacken the countryside,
and we unwittingly crush them beneath our boots.

Dreams sustain us through the madness;
goals give a finish line to our race.
Yet they change with every turn, around every wall,
and remain elusive throughout the quest.

Mistakes are made, and regrets are our luggage;
we will drag them with us to slow us down.
The victories are flashes of light, sudden and unlasting, which allow us
to glimpse the road ahead before darkness descends.

Love is bitter, yet it is the bread that keeps us.
Over and over it fills us up, only to starve us.
The people whom we love shape our destinies and our strengths,
yet leave us cold and alone in the darkness.

There are others trying to race to the end;
occasionally, we bump into one or two.
The bonds we form help us down the path less lonely
but eventually, we lose each other in the darkness.

Alone is not a bad way to be;
it clears your head and focuses you on the journey.
Cherish the short intervals during the quest you have with others,
but be prepared to walk alone in the darkness."

Second Picture in my Element Serie with the Titans girls.
I simply love Raven *.* It was because of her I decided on doing six elements instead of for... cause honestly, is there any element that fits her better than Darkness??

Satisfied with the Outlines, satisfied with the color, as usual, not satisfied with what my scanner did to it. ^^°

Dedicated to
*______* Sophie und Howl!!! Darling, wir werden die tollsten, die besten die coolsten... wenn ich bis dahin stoff finde T.T

I love her dress, the style is very distinct, and her expression is priceless, so overall, a great piece. Keep up the great work.

again, thank you very much for the comment

I really had difficulties with the background... Though I think my outlines are getting better I still don't like my coloring... or what my scanner constantly does to it xD It's probably to blame on both aspects.

Thank you so much. This is definitly the nicest compliment I've received so far!!! I'm glad you liked the outfit... I was really unsure about what would fit both - raven and the element - so I needed many trys before I decided on this outfit!!

thank you so much

*nod* it was difficult to find something about darkness, since it's not one of the usual elements... let's see if I can something for light ^^°

Sie sieht echt toll aus!!!
Ich mag vor allem den Hintergrund und diese Malereien, es passt so gut zu ihr.
Sie wirkt zwar sanfter als für gewöhnlich, aber... Hey, sie hat ihren Solo-Auftritt, sie darf das XD

Und ich finde ihr Kleid sieht klasse aus ^^

Nalasan In reply to Shawnkyr [2008-02-25 20:19:12 +0000 UTC]

das zeug sieht vorm colorieren auch immer besser aus als hinterher... und nach dem scannen mag ichs gar nicht mehr anschauen xD

ich maaag das kleid auch. ich dachte ich mag sone mischung aus griechischer göttin und artus saga xD

genau, wenn sie allein mit den dunkelheit ist darf sie lächeln - außerdem mal im ernst, ich mal doch keine bilder wo sie nen flunsch zieht und pissig aussieht o.O

noch eine klausur und dann hab ichs geschaaaaaafft!!! *freu*

Ich muss bis um 17.00/17.15 arbeiten ^^° Wir reden auch über Donnerstag, oder? Ich seh'das gerade leider nicht und bin mir gerade unsicher ^^°

Also... ich könnte das Auto mitnehmen und zu dir kommen oder du kommst mit deinem Auto zu mir XD
Mir ist beides Recht ^-^ Ich würde halt sagen wir treffen uns, wenn wir aus haben *g*

Ich mag Terra/earth auch!

Aber das hier gefällt mir noch besser! Vor allem die Haltung und die Kleidung kommen hier gut zur Geltung!
Es sieht aber sehr sanft für Raven aus *g*
Da hast du aber ihre nette Seite erwischt *haha*

Nalasan In reply to Sleepsong [2008-02-25 18:30:55 +0000 UTC]

*lach* jaaaa, stimmt... aber sie ist ja grad wirklich in ihrem element sprich in der dunkelheit... und ich glaub da fühlt sie sich sooo wohl, dass sie auch mal nett gucken kann - außerdem wärs komisch gewesen wenn alle anderen auf den bildern gelächelt hätten und nur raven pissig geschaut hätte xDDD
*drück* *sooo lieb hab*
Aber schön wenns dir gefällt! *sing* sophie und howl, sophie und howl... ^_____________________________^
