Description Placing a smile at the perfect event,
Gracing your skin with the side of my hand.
If I ever leave I could learn to miss you
But "Sentimental Boy" is my nom de plume

Let me save you, hold this rope

I may never sleep tonight,
As long as you're still burning bright.
If I could trade mistakes for sheep,
Count me away before you sleep.
I'll stay awake till I trade my mistakes
Or they fade away..

Ugh, I really, really hate how my desktop makes the colors on this look. Everything is really dark and I can't fix it without it messing up how things look on other websites. v.v

Anyways, aside from that I really, really love how this turned out. On my laptop, it looks perfect. I'm in love with every panel and the lyrics above were the driving force behind this entire piece. I've probably listened to that song close to a hundred times by now because I've been playing it on repeat all day/night. 

Eclipse's hair was a pain in my butt, but luckily I pulled it off without too much of a headache. Arin's shading is a lot more heavy than the others I think, but it's alright. I don't mind too awfully much.

I think Shadow turned out REALLY nice for my first time drawing him and actually finishing the picture. I couldn't decide on the expression I wanted him to have- It changed between this and a gentle smile a couple times before I decide this suited him better. I imagine his relationship with her is sometimes very strained just due to how much of a handful she can be- but Ryder has a lot of redeeming qualities too, so he's probably come to appreciate them and that's why he sticks around.

This is the first time I've drawn Ezekiel smiling without him either being drunk or looking like he's about to wreck something. Tobi said something... uh. Must have happened before hand to make him this relaxed. And well, none of them are wearing clothes sooo. 8'D

Manic and Debris were the first pair I sketched up and I'm very pleased with out they both look. I'm still working on how they'd pair up in my little headverse, but I don't think it'd take too much effort. With similar backgrounds and the fact that they both are from Freedom Fighter groups, it's not hard to imagine them becoming allies and just getting close through trials of hardship and whatnot. 

Anyway, hope y'all like it! I certainly put a lot of effort into making sure this one got finished. I see more than two characters in a picture and it usually makes me not wanna keep working on it, but this time I forced myself to push through until the end. xD It's 4:30 in the morning now and WAAAY passed my bedtime. Good thing I don't work tomorrow!

All of the ladies belong to me.
Ezekiel and Arin belong to
And Manic and Shadow belong to their respective companies.
The lyrics are from this song here! I suggest giving it a listen while viewing this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJr1Oh…

This is a really adorable picture of the four couples, each in their own bed, where the females are sleeping are awake and looking at their partner! I just love their eyes glowing! Very breathtaking!

The outlines, the colouring, and the shadings and highlights are all so spectacular!

I think it looks pretty gosh darn great myself. I really managed to capture the exact image I had in mind whenever I first started this and that makes me super proud of myself.

Thank you for the comment ;^; <33333

It might just be your monitor, everything looks fine to me.

I think either expression for Shadow would've been great, so I'm just happy to see what your ultimately picked. Ryder looks very satisfied. ;D

Gawd, E and Arin's bed, wings and hair EVERYWHERE. Must be a glorious tangle come morning. I love E's hair so much. xD

Zeke is indeed wearing a pretty rare expression here and SHE IS MISSING IT. But maybe he prefers it that way, kehehe.

Debris is always so cute, love those freckly shoulders and Manic's chilled, sweet face.

Overall, it's very cute and fun to see the various couples and their quiet interactions here.

It is. I use a tv screen as my monitor and it makes everything really vibrate and over exaggerates the shading. I dislike it immensely. It's a good thing I'm not using it to do my coloring.

Unf, I felt like this one worked best. I tried to make it look not as much annoyed as he's just sorta mauling something over haha
ANd yes. Ryder is deeply satisfied. 

Hahahahaha, Spooks is completely unaware. They wake up the next morning and it's back to bickering and almost insulting jabs at one another.

Her wittle freckles are my favorite, literally. I just think they make her SO MUCH CUTER. Manic better think so too. 

Thank you for the comment Tobi ;^; <33

Dude, hair is like my favorite thing to shade (UNLESS IT'S ECLIPSE'S -RAWRS ANGRILY-) because I'm just in love with the way I do it these days. xD It's super easy, really, if you use paint tool SAI.
