Description Remember the time when Ed lost his automail arm for the first time? He got totally depressed and had almost given up on everything. Later on, he voluntarily ripped his arm off and used it as a trick in battle. That's what getting stronger is all about, isn't it? I love FMA .

A4, canson 250, White Nights watercolour. It took a few months to draw it, I started it somwehere in March O_O. Then painted it from time to time, then gave up for some time, then painted again... and finally finished last night.

Hope you like it .

This is my favourite expression of his... "I'm hurt, but who cares about hurts? Bring it on!" Absolute love

Oh, I LOVE it! I looked un-zoomed first, and I thought it was a messy digital, and then I went fullveiw It's flippin amazing!!! ! !! !! WATERCOLOR. Like the Holy Cow her self works with traditional media! The arm!!! Its'- it's AMAZING! The hand so 3D, and the socket!! But what makes his such an absolutely FRUSTRATING picture, is that I can't seem to express how much I like it in english!
Den Γ€r sΓ₯ otroligt kΓ€nslomΓ€ssigt GNAGANDE i hjΓ€rtat! Stilen Γ€r sΓ₯ flimsig, men sΓ₯ allvarlig. He looks so vunerable with the broken arm, but he's NOT goning to break down! He's gonna pound someone to the ground with his almighty resolve NOT to die, NOT to kill and NEVER to give up! The thing that's so beautiful is his face. His face makes me so emotional. It's like he's silently screaming emotions to us. His expresssion just makes me wanna cheer and take cover! It's so completely wonderful, and it looks like him, right on the spot. I acctually tear up when I look at it.
Dude, I don't say this often, EVER, but if the cracks were better, this looks like Arakawa desided to draw something messier than she usually does.
I want to love this forever.
I also want to fave twice, but alas...
Well, I guess I could express myself~~ I just love this picture so much, I don't know why...Well, except it's awesome...

THANK you so much for sharing with me such honest thoughts! I'm delighted I was able to provide you such positive emotions with my picture. Also, I'm ineffable glad that you can see all I tried to put into it and you enjoy this . Yes, he's not going to give up. Yes, he's in a poor situation in ever poorer condition, but so what? He'll make it anyway. That's just like him, that's what I love about him and I'm happy you agree with me .

Once again, thank you . It's a huge pleasure to draw something for people like you, who can actually feel something looking at the drawing.

I'm sure there are more people like me, who loves to read such lovely, honest, thoughtful comments, so I think you should write them everytime you feel like doing it . It was a really great pleasure to hear that this drawing was actually able to move someone . It makes me keep drawing more stuffed with emotions works
