Description Being a Healer, the only thing that Anders could not heal was himself.


My Mage Vinestra Hawke and Anders. Two apostates on the run.

So, yeah, DA2 struck me hard and got out the hardcore fangirl in me

It didn't take lots and lots of time (well, in part because I didn't want it to rot there in the queue for months ).

Don't read further if you don't want SPOILERS

;A; In spite of everything that happened my Vinestra Hawke didn't stop loving Anders. Well, it probably took lots of time forgiving him, but she couldn't help loving him... ;A; Ah, I love angsty things like this. They stir my plot bunnies and inspiration! Well, every DA in fact does.

I stopped by several stages while doing this pic; it's odd so I imagined a lot of scenes that can occur picturing this. When I drew the wip I didn't finish DA2, so I didn't know about all the Chantry going boom and all.

I suppose, in the end, she is trying to heal him from his broken soul... (she was a Spirit Healer after all). As they run away, there is only the two of them and the starry night.

I made a wallpaper out of it, by the way... I'm using it because when I made the pencil wip I thought it'd fit Feel free to use it if you like. You can hit download and you will have it a 1920 x 1080 resolution

BTW, when it comes to designing backgrounds I kind of suck because I lack of imagination for doing it... Have this starry background instead. It fits the mood. Every other thing that was tested was kind of bad...

Soon, I'll upload a step-by-step (it's not very misterious)

God this is so beautiful.It screams true love,through thick and thin I can really feel the emotion in this.

my Hawke also remained with him,through it all.

Anders needs to be healed which I think that's what Hawke did

I love your color work. about your background comment I noticed you said it a few times. you should take two or three days drawing backgrounds (perhaps for desktop wallpapers) just to see what you can do. I would love to put some of your work on my desktop but there's so many good pictures I wouldn't know where to begian.

Shaliara In reply to Gerald156 [2011-08-22 08:49:56 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! I wanted to make a simple background so as to be used as a wallpaper. I usually spend lots of times with backgrounds, but somehow the simpler they are the more diffcult they are to get it right and fit with the image

Gerald156 In reply to Shaliara [2011-08-22 09:25:07 +0000 UTC]

haha. I guess I can see how simple things can be harder to acomplish.
try to come up with a few complex wallpaper designs and work out your technique than when you do a simple design you might not have to think about technique too much and just go with the flow.

Well I did romance Fenris once - what a badass! But this voice - I like it!
Mage is great class - never had such control over battlefield fefore, even Mass Effect Adept is not so cool!
But As I played for male rogue assassin this time I understood that four numbered criticals starting with 3 realy rules! And Merrill also - I love that sweety, she is so much Tali from Mass Effect!

Yeah, he really needs a psychiatrist who believes in magic, right? My first Hawke plans to slap him silly on a random basis until 6 months have passed when he's gotten the point. Just for bad aim, for a freedom fighter. Great image!

Actually... kind of. Or someone who could un-merge him and Justice/vengance would be nice too
