To quote my SA account:
"*gasp* A slightly dark/agnsty/emo-ish picture of Ovan! HASEO'S HAD TOO MUCH INFLUENCE ON HIM! D8
*cough* Actually, it's fitting of him, since he does seem to spend alot of time in solitude, especially right after the whole Shino comaincident...And I sort of intended for this to be around that time.*almost put in ghostly Shino and Ina to demonstrate that*
The thunderstorm is there because we've had a whole bunch of thoserecently...Knocking out the power and making me redo bits and pieces ofwork on this...*thankfully saved this a lot*
Hahaah. The sketch version of this was started a long time ago, but Ijust recently got it CGed. Rather, I started CGing it at home a weekago. I kept on wanting to give up on it because it didn't look amazing, and it was taking so damn long. DD:
Fun facts about this picture:
1. Aina/Ina was originally going to be in the picture too. At first,Ovan was supposed to be seated, reading, and Ina would be next to him,also reading or else sleeping. If it was the latter, I was going tomake a joke about how Ovan conveniently pulled out the porn novelsafter his twelve year-old sister had fallen asleep.
2. Instead of inking it on the paper, I inked this entirely on the computer.
3. The PSD image, while still present, is slightly messed up. I forgotto revert it back to its original size, did other stuff, and couldn'tundo it quite to that point. DD: Ah well. I wouldn't have minded beingable to make it slightly larger, but I can probably still make it thatsize without distorting it much. Besides, now all of the shaky linesare gone, making me look like I'm better at drawing straight lines thanI really am.
4. I actually sketched in the background for this picture, though in the sketch, there's snow, not rain.
5. This was drawn when I had (and still sort of do have) an obsession with drawing pictures involving broken glass.
6. Ovan's right eye is really there. Look at his shades. The right onehas a thicker line at the top. That's actually his eye, but at thissmaller size, it sort of blends in with his glasses. D: Granted, hiseyes are often obscured by them, so it works.
7. When drawing the hair, I was trying (and failing) to imitate Angel Sanctuary.
8. Ovan's right eye was originally supposed to be closed because of acut on his cheek. Now it's because he has a bunch of water dripping inhis eye/down his face.
9. I got super lazy at the end because I just wanted to finish this.
10. There's another rain-related 100 pics challenge picture that I'mprobably not going to post here. It's a picture that is possiblyimplying a pairing between one of my characters, and one of my friends'characters...Though we agreed that the two probably wouldn't be arealisitic pairing. It's probably going to stay in traditional media,and when finished, it will be shipped off to a really good friend ofmine.
I may redo this. The sky sucks, and because the PSD is smaller now, Imight just redo it later and try to make it look even better.
...Though I think that some of my focuses in drawing will now be moreon backgrounds and perspective. I have one other drawing, about as oldas this one, if not older, that has a background as well but is (half)coloured with prismas. I should finish that.
...I'm going to try to pull of a really awesome background for Kitty'sprize. 8DD Because she's awesome and deserves a good picture.
The raven feathers are supposed to have double symbolism. Cookies go toanyone who can guess both. One should be easy, since it's general andnot just something that .Hack// fans might notice. (They also added alittle bit of a sense of depth that was otherwise lacking...>_> )
