Description Leave with the first light,
go when you still see the moon,
run for the sunlight,
gate is now open for you


~ Sonata Arctica - Victoria's secret

[edit: Oh Oh! Forgot the most important part They are also representing flowers, while Jumanah is portrayed by roses, Jamal is portraying the lovely flower Galanthus nivalis which you can see here [link] ]


I told you I was working on something that wasn't a sketch . Well here it is and it's for *quybaba who asked me to draw her characters Jamal (the boy) and Jumanah (the girl).

I don't know much about them but apparently they have some difficult love-relationship, as they love each other but she wants him to give her up as soon as possible. So I went for an angsty approach again, how do I love those. The day and night composition is what shows this tough situation they have when it comes to love, they love each other but they seem to have a barrier separating them, they belong to different worlds (not literally).

That is what I came up with for the work. This is what happens when you let your imagination run wild. Don't do it, kids.

Though I love the way the clear sky turned out, especially the sun <3 the roses were a pain in the...hand to make, but they were worth it .

Hope you like it!

More commissions coming soon to your local deviantWATCH!

Overall, this is pretty freak'n awesome. However, the sky blanket, I that's what it is, lack dimension. Your female character seems to kinda disappear from the waist down.

what would you suggest? I'm pretty happy with how it looks though, that's what I wanted to achieve. But I'm open for new approaches on it

monkycid In reply to rydi1689 [2011-01-21 22:27:27 +0000 UTC]

Well, you could always add some shadowing to emphasis the foldings on the blanket.

I actually thought about that but I liked it better this way. I guess we all have different opinions Thanks for the input it's nice to see what others think! (I mainly like it this way more because I love looking at the sky without being distracted by weird lines of different blue shades immitating the folds I have a sky fetish *_* )
