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)

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




wow hey i submitted a work in progress

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

drawn with
graphite (0.5) charcoal conte crayon sakura pens (0.5, 0.2, 0.1, and 0.05) sharpie tortillon mah finger


Detail shots:
the figure
buildings 1
buildings 2

this isn't done because i plan to glue some sketchbook paper that looks like broken glass onto the bottom, and make it stick out a bit using foam core. and then use the matereals above to make more images in the glass. =] in the end, i think it'll be one of my best.

hm. i think this one might belong in my other gallery......

oh goodness where do i begin?
okay. perspective. awesome. amazing. brilliantly conceived and illustrated. I mean the shoes! I can never draw shoes from that angle and you've done such a fantastic job with them. And the buildings!oh my god the buildings are just gorgeous! I mean, the perspective isn't photographic realistic but you really get the sense of chaos and motion - and the way they bend in on the edges is just absolute love. It's like a swirling bubble of a world. You're so good with the shadows too - personally I'm not a big fan of charcoal but you did it so well D:
And the actual FALLING - it feels like he is falling. crazy. the flow of his body and clothes is so dynamic - freaking talented you are!

and since you encouraged critique, just one. aimalicious mentioned a darker ink outline around the figure. I think it would work really well since this is a perspective from above everything, so he's closer to the viewer than the buildings and should pop out a little more. Not with an outline around all of him but maybe a little darker around the legs and feet - the part closest to us. yes.

just excellent, fabulous job with this. If this is a WIP, I can't wait to see it finished

thankies, mah love!
haha at first i was confused by your thinking my perspective was good, because in this picture its totally f**ked XD then i remembered the figure thanx for noticing! trust me, those shoes were nar so easy >__> ah, and it feels so good to hear "motion and chaos" ^^ that's exactly what i was going for.

ah, thanks you gave me an even better idea of what she was trying to say your "darker around the legs and feet" suggestion would work out soo nicely, i'll be sure to add some more ink!
