Description I'm adding this version to my gallery for the sole purpose of conceit. I spent ALL Saturday afternoon and evening toiling away on this, and I want you to see all the work tat I put into it. Most of the shading gets lost in the final version because of the lighting.

Okay, background for this. I like to think this is prior to Kevin 11,000 but after the episode "Ben 10,000". I think this would be before Kevin was put back into the Null Void. He's currently in a holding cell at Ben's headquarters, and Gwen has sneaked in to see him.

If you know the inspiration for Kevin's hair, kudos to you.

The bit in his mouth was blantantly inspired by Riddick's restraints in Pitch Black, as was how Kevin has been "chained" up. Those are energy cuffs he's wearing (a sort of nod to the Alien Force show) just because Kevin can't break out of them (absorption powers or not).

Yeah, the chair that he's sitting on is cock-eyed. But, I was too lazy to fix the side closest to the front because it would have required redoing all of it. Other that the fact that he's almost slid off of the chair, I liked the thing. It tapers off at the bottoms until it gets to the "feet," which are bolted to the floor. At the feet of the chair are cuffs that come from inside of it and lock the prisoner's ankles. Very sturdy, very useful, but not so nice to look at.

The arch behind Kevin is there to serve as the backrest of the chair as well as being a continuous form, bolted down to the floor on both ends, so the prisoner cannot free him/herself.

The green panel on the back does various things, such as mess with the prisoner's moods in order to get them to confess to crimes, etc. Above the panel is another that houses a camera. That also begs one to question why Gwen is being so tender to Kevin while under supervision... unless she knocked the surveilance out first. She wouldn't really need to use her powers, just a little computer know-how.

Final inspiration, the most important, is this drawing was entirely inspired by the song "Within Me" by Lacuna Coil.
"I wasn't there when a thin line destroyed your soul" was the lyric that did me in. There are several Lacuna Coil songs that fit these two.

Used images of Galadriel Stineman and Nathan Keyes. They were the actors who played Gwen and Kevin in Alien Swarm, the live action movie.
