Description burnin down neverland, scatter the ashes
whites lines, black tar the matches
is this another death by misadventure?
tell me what you got, what you really got
....

they lied when they said the good die young
stay with me, stay with me tonight

burning down bridges now, scatter the ashes
godspeed to all you're after
is this a life left just to remember?
tell them who you were, who you really were

kill yourself slowly over time,
fashion statement suicide
she's still asleep in a Chelsea hotel
bad turns to worse, and the worst turns into hell

(God save the eyes that dim tonight)

they lied when they said the good die young
stay with me, stay with me tonight

- "Godspeed" by anberlin



completely inspired by anberlin's cities, mostly by the tracks "début" and "godspeed". GREAT CD, GO LISTEN TO IT.

finished! a while ago actualy. it was displayed in my booth at the art show at the end of may. i know you can't see it, but the rubble in the front actually sticks out... its mounted on foam board so its all like... 3D like...

there's not too much of a concept behind this, so intepret it how you'd like some people said it looks like a tornado.

drawn with
graphite (0.5) charcoal conte crayon sakura pens (0.5, 0.2, 0.1, and 0.05) sharpie tortillon finger smudging to the max


detail shots: they're really big... sorry! but pleeease look at them!

Sheevus, I'm really impressed by the cityscape. Then again, I fail at backgrounds period, but that's besides the point.

And I totally wish I could pose people like that. The guy flying by over the city and the rubble sort of make for this really trippily cool sort of effect and my honest-to-goodness first impression was, "Dang. Wow. Duuuuude."

(I kid you not. )

Nice going. You've got some serious talent there.

thanks very very much i'm really glad you like the city, i don't normally like backgrounds either, but i don't know what happened haha.

ohman, i'd totally fail at making a cityscape accurately, like with all the perspective and stuff. XD fortunately making it all messed up got the effect i wanted and was... much easier charcoal does wonders.

thanks again!
