Description [Let's throw a blast of a party for the Akuma, Maria!!!]

-----------------------------------------------------
Devil may cry i mean devil may care Cross Marian and Maria :3

...somehow, looking at this piece, i feel like recolouring Kanda orzlll/weird guilt factor going on atm
seems strange to look back and recall that the 1st time i tried to draw his gun 3 years ago, something abnormal turns out, lolol. Feels even weirder to remember that one of my 1st commissions which i didn't upload here is to draw a pink haired girl holding an M16! --- dunno why am i getting all these heavy weapon military commissions last time, but they sure trained me of sort (and addicted me to military warfare and war history orz ).hence, a few days ago, when my super just drew a box rough of a gun and ask, [Think you can fill it in?], i was like, [Yeah, sure]

all characters belong to Hoshino Katsura sensei

wip of drawing is here:


others to be badges drawing thingy...


Tools: Paint Tool SAI
The brushes i use in SAI to get those colouring effects: Linearts---pencil tool; colours---airbrush+watercolour brush

This is an old drawing i did of him with Maria two years ago...time sure flies

Aww. Nice pic. Cross-sama is my absolute favorite character. And I kinda like the CxM pairing.


We know he likes women, but I think Maria could be a true love. Like a wife. If I had to name a true love, it'd be her.


Anita, her mother, and his other lovers, I think he truly does he care for, and likes. Because, Cross is a good person....uh...despite some characteristics. But, Maria seems ahead.

Yeah. I used to hate Cross. Now I love him. 


He's so odd. Like when you first look at him, he seems like a Kanda type. Stern and serious.....then you see him drinking and/or around women, and find that ain't true lol

I liked chapter 206 of the manga. He was very silly there.....but I don't think he meant to be lol


Like Allen not eating, so he randomly screams, and kicks in a table, breaking chairs. And breaking wash tubs, stomping laundry. Hmmm... Cross loves tormenting other people, yet his boiling point is very low.

SW442 In reply to darkn2ght [2013-10-05 23:39:17 +0000 UTC]

I could imagine that...somewhat. If he was taking care of a girl. But, Cross doesn't seem to feel comfortable being affectionate with men lol Like when he hugs Allen. It was a nice moment, but seemed like it was awkward lol


Otherwise, Cross is a time bomb. Like when he holds his hand out, then grabs Allen and throws him, screaming at him, and Lavi that they're filthy. lol

...maybe it's just as well Hoshino sensei drew him to be such a woman manly guy. imagining Cross as loving father had me imagining two Theodore running around lol

SW442 In reply to darkn2ght [2013-10-06 04:53:10 +0000 UTC]

Eh. I see Cross as the old-fashioned type. He's very polite and sympathetic to women and girls. 


However, with men & boys,...eh no. lol So, with Allen, who's like a son, it's about tough love, and deal with it "idiot apprentice." 


Cross is that parent you send the kid to be punished lol

SW442 In reply to darkn2ght [2013-10-06 19:46:20 +0000 UTC]

Possibly. With Allen, he'd slam it in his face. lol Poor Allen XD


Like when he says he ate some of Cross' alcohol chocolates he found, before shuddering and saying he was punished like never before....lol

darkn2ght In reply to SW442 [2013-10-07 14:13:53 +0000 UTC]

yeah, that sure create a hellavu trauma for allen towards alcohol after that, lolol

SW442 In reply to darkn2ght [2013-10-07 14:35:13 +0000 UTC]

Yeah. No telling what Cross did to him once he sobered up. Seems the only vice Allen got from Cross was gambling lol Allen even yells that Cross made him into a king gambler, and yelling because he stayed out all night again lol


Too bad about Cross in the manga. I would like to see more with him and Allen. Cross acts like a big child when he's around Allen.

darkn2ght In reply to SW442 [2013-10-07 18:10:46 +0000 UTC]

yeah, part of me is still wishing that there is a plot twist and she will bring him back into the manga, while the other part still likes the impact it held when he was gone

SW442 In reply to darkn2ght [2013-10-07 22:21:28 +0000 UTC]

Yeah. It's 50/50 


But I lean toward him being alive...since she's hiding it so heavily. Same thing with his age and nationality. She is hiding those too. So, something very odd and important it going on with Cross himself, plus his big involvement in the story. 


Heck, his real name may not even be Cross lol

Aww no!! Really?? GAH! If I get my manga out of storage I will see if I can scan a page or skim through it all to find it. Not sure what volume I saw it in. I'm pretty up to date with it (the Japanese version). I nearly had a heart attack after what happened to him. Cross-samaaaa ;A;. I agree that what he did to Allen was pretty horrible but I also like his weirdo quirks (the chickens LOLWut) and the hug he gave him was pretty sweet. I like the way you drew him and lovely Maria. The coloring is just beautiful ;o;

ahaha, mostly because of the patterns on the gun's body and nose of gun really---since i did hate to get it wrong, lol. it's okay, i have the manga too wwww

yeah, Cross and his [what, you want me to blow on his food and go 'fuh fuh and say 'ahhh~' like a woman'?!] had me laughing for ages

Grim-away In reply to darkn2ght [2013-10-06 15:36:59 +0000 UTC]

LOL awww and I liked the part where Cross gives Allen a hug. He's not really a bad guy he just has a million flaws. It's kind of what makes him a pretty awesome character, I think. So I will squee and love anything Cross I see.

Oooo! I think there's a full two page (or one whole page) of Cross using that gun.... dl01.mangashare.com/manga/D.Gr… <--- That's the picture I mean. It's the one I used for cosplay a few (4 or 5) years ago.

i like it too, a lot. and where he [gave] allen his last name. think i drew something like allen and mana and allen and cross before but have to go dig it out...somewhere around.

oh crap, i forgot some details on the gun orzlll. this is what comes of using a pirated manga as reference need to get the originals soon. though will probably keep the pirated ones for reference on minor details only, lol. 

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Grim-away In reply to darkn2ght [2013-10-06 20:22:54 +0000 UTC]

Definitely do! Even if they are pirated it's still got some minor references, right? I don't know where there are some pictures of the nozzle but those are minor details themselves. Shouldn't be too hard to find. I think there are a few anime screenshots of the nozzle of Judgement. (I tend to follow manga refs too so not sure how well those will help you out)
When he gave Allen his last name it just made me smile. Despite how much of a demon he is to Allen at times, he does seem to care an awful lot for him.

 yeah XD. didn't they always say that an otaku has 3 sets of everything---one to treasure, one to use, and the last to use as conversion materials for new converts lolol

LMAO oh noes! They do? I'm fallin behind! I'm gonna need a bigger house! Haha!
Do you have 3 sets of everything? I think some stuff with our otakuism is kind of hard to obtain multiple copies of. I've got a few encyclopedias from Japan but each volume was over 4000 yen. It's a great conversation piece when you get Seiyuu to sign it though so you're right about it being a conversation starter!

darkn2ght In reply to Grim-away [2013-10-07 18:53:51 +0000 UTC]

ah no, that would be financially impossible, lol. and space too will be a problem.
would, so you have an encyclopedia signed by a seiyuu XD?

Grim-away In reply to darkn2ght [2013-10-07 19:11:21 +0000 UTC]

Haha that's what I thought! Space. I'd run out too quickly.
I have a giant encyclopedia signed by a lot of Seiyuu (out of 5 Seiyuu at least 3 have been in a Gundam series LOL). It's funny when I see their expressions when they see this giant thing. It's really heavy. It's about 562 pages and a few good pounds.
I've got this weird card game book from D.Gray-man too. Have you head of a D.Gray-man Card game?

darkn2ght In reply to Grim-away [2013-10-07 19:13:19 +0000 UTC]

haha, yeah, that book must pack a punch, even if just visually.
i have only seen the promo picture used for the card game, but never the actual card game itself

ah, i have to go sleep soon, so if you don't see me replying now, it's okay, will be online again the next day XD

Grim-away In reply to darkn2ght [2013-10-07 19:21:29 +0000 UTC]

Me neither! I bought it cheap in Japan but didn't know there was such a thing. (I needed visual refs)
Yeah it's definitely very heavy. It's got references (color and black and white) from every series out there from the 70s to now... so... it's huge.

Ah no worries! I'm usually checking this thing every now and then. I'm actually a pretty patient person. I'm actually very happy to be able to talk to you so sleep well and I'll talk to you again later!

As strong as I believe I am, I'm actually wrong LOL. I push myself too hard and I end up falling off the bike, sort of speak. I always take my time to read through journals posted, I like to believe I care and I've got some weird White Knight syndrome where I want to help everyone. Since I watch you and love your work, I felt it I should contribute somehow. If lending an ear is what I can offer, if it's acceptable, I will do just that. So no worries! I am always around to lend an ear to. I've been through just about everything bad in life so far so I can at least offer wisdom in that field and push people upwards towards happiness.

If you ever do another fantastic artbook, let me know! I'll put whatever money I can to get a copy! (and my friend who usually buys them with me might like one too, ohohohoho). That's awfully kind of you to thank all the White Knights out there. You don't have to, I'd buy more of your lovely creations regardless.
