Description
Okies...to start off this little itty bitty comment space, this is my very first contest entry!This is for the contest over at , which asked for me to draw my OC Titan (in this case, I'll pick ol' Adam), and put them in a picture with a canon Titan.
I chose Raven.
My initial reaction after this was something along the lines of...:
"Are you frickin' insane? That's so cliche'! Why pick her?"
I then remembered that a little nagging idea forced me to put this on paper. This is an idea based off of yet another fanfic I have been planning and piecing together... In it, Adam is a member of a team of Titans located somewhere in central Europe (I'll post them here eventually). He isn't really from Europe...he was simply picked up along the way when they decided to journey back to the main base of the Titans... You see, this is semi-AU...I guess it takes place after season 5, but the point of the matter is this:
Slade wins.
The Titans, in a moment of weakness are separated from their leader and driven into hiding. Soldiers have invaded every major city and despite the combined force of the other Titans, they are one-by-one, isolated and eliminated...
Robin is believed to be dead. After around two years or so, Adam and the Titans CE drop in to speak to Cyborg, the acting leader of the Titans... They agree to help, but after a few weeks they are called back to Europe via a distress signal. Help is still needed at the main base, so they decide to leave Adam behind. He had the least experience out of the entire crew, but a few impromptu training sessions with the remaining Titans would fix him up in no time, they figured.
During his time at the base, he spotted and became intrigued by our resident empath. She would wander aimlessly around the base, not a single expression gracing her features...not a single sound leaving her lips...
So why is she holding a flower?
I've been quite into flowers lately...at least as far as symbolism goes, but before the story takes place she shares a moment with her team leader...something eerily similar to what I submitted in my Evanescence entry.
So she goes on remembering (That's Robin's mask in the background, btw)...whilst Adam watches from a distance.
Gah...this makes me want to write it all down now. I love this little story, even though its been done...albeit in a different way...but that's another story for another time.
Do full-view it. It always looks better that way...
**Edit**
Raven is an empath. EMPATH.

Do the brilliant ideas in you never cease? You seem to know that fanfic backwords and forwards- should have no trouble writing it up. I want to see it as soon as you do, because it sounds like it'll be one to remember. ^^
Will I be shot if I say I love Raven's outfit and Adam looks smexy? Hope not, because it's true. -dies- I love this sketchy style, because it adds such flair to the simplest folds in her clothing and her hair. Anatomy is pretty much on-spot, you're remarkablly consistent with proportions. And perspectives. Adam looks great in that blurry little backround, what with his snazzy uniform and adorable red-orange hair...
Flowers = awesome. Robin's mask in the sky is unbelievablly cool-looking. Even the grass is fantastic. -glomps- Great work. ^^

Surprisingly, Raven's outfit turned out. I have an obsession with armwarmers, er whatever they're called...I put them on almost every character if I get the opportunity. Her skirt was random too. I wanted to add a color other than black, blue, or purple, so a muted dark red was practically slapped onto the "canvas".
...That tablet is a godsend. No more eraser marks, thinning paper, smudges... The picture still looks like I doodled it out though. I'm glad that you like the sketchiness. It really is easier to show the hair that way, along with the ruffles in clothes, etc.
...Robin's mask was a last-minute idea, but thanks to my ability to abuse Photoshop, it turned out fairly good... It's not my fault that I usually skip out on the backgrounds...
Thanks for the wonderful comment. Words like this definitely make a struggling artist's day.
