--------------------------------------

.:Short story:.

"Mel..."

The tall guy didn't know how to finish his sentence. A few strands of his ebony hair covered his shoulder. The puzzled look in his eyes didn't tell any good either as his voice started to shiver.

"Melody... I can't do this no more. I mean-"
As soon as he noticed a tear fell down from his eye, he moved his face away. She didn't notice.

Melody, who was standing next to him, stared in front of her. Despite of the fact that she did know what he was trying to tell her, she didn't want to hear it.

"Please don't say it" she said, her gaze now aimed at his face. "I don't want to know. You're all live for. Don't make it end. Not tonight..."

-------------------

.:Explanation:.

My original character Melody with the one she loved the most: Dagen.

He's made of darkness, the opposite of Melody.
His age is unknown.

Dagen is an irish name and means 'black-haired'.



I wanted to draw the moment when Melody lost her voice. Sadly she had to let go her love for unknown reasons. He knew why, but couldn't bare to tell what it was.

He gave her a last kiss before he heard her heart breaking and fainted in his arms.
Ever since that moment she has lost hear healing voice and hearing. She hasn't seen him after that particular day/night.

Will she find him again?

-------------------

.:Characters & info:.

My other original characters so far:
Nora
Melody
Gaea

    As I am usually totally amazed by Your drawings this one little disapointed me... I'm not happy to say this but there are mistakes in anatomy: his arm is to short, hand to small and flat, her waist looks flat for me too. Background homogeneous, without depth. You could give some sharp light, deeper contrast to make this scene more natural.

    ...i feel guilty because what I wrote, but this is how I see it. Please, don't be sorry!

    I'm really happy to hear you like my more original stuff

    The pose wasn't all that difficult to draw, but there seems to be a few problems with the proportions. Oh well I'll keep that in mind when I draw a new OC drawing

    ambroggio In reply to ??? [2008-06-26 10:35:02 +0000 UTC]

    Okay, gal. You are very good on rendering with those pencils. I admit that. You also most certainly got the biting attitude to get the thing done. My compliments.

    BUT.

    First off: Even though you used a reference photo you still fucked up anatomy here. His arm is much too short, mainly because you did not transfer perspective from the original picture. They have no snugness in holding each other and god behold I would never be kissing a girl in such a way.

    Okay, that was not very polite. Anyway. Maybe you might be interested in following new areas for you to improve in: foreshortening and perspective drawing, light and shadows, anatomy, composition and dramatic stilistic devices, clothes(!) and if you dare: Leave the photos behind and stop copying them. Stick with it and become boring. Try more life drawing. Try to be more sketchy. Perfection is masturbation.

    Let loose.

    Nice job! My only complaint on this is that the arm seems too small/not far enough away from his body compared to the pose, and his torso seems too wide. Other than that, it's really fantastic. Love the shading.
