Description
You just call on me, brotherWhen you need a hand
We all need somebody
To lean on ~
- Lean on me by Bill Withers
I thought it might be fun to try something quite stylised but wow ok everything being a silhouette is actually not as easy as you might initially think |D Especially when you decide you want to incorporate some things like goggles or mouths! Or do like what i did and only draw the outside outline and kind of wing any features that you might need to draw inside the fill
And i've noticed that my recent deviations have all been rather feelsy which can only mean that at some stage i will have this urge to do something really angsty
Maybe.---

The fact that one of my favorite web comics has a strip for one of my favorite songs has made my day.

Haha i'm not sure i'd call HH a web comic though, it's not that organised! XDD;

Organization isn't what makes it a web comic. It's more about the characters. In my humble opinion, anyway.

Hey, this made my day a lot better. My friends and I have been having some issues the past half a month, and shit hit the fan a couple days ago. I shared this on FB to remind everyone that no matter what happens, we've been together for celebrations and tragedies, and hopefully will stay together.
...Well, that was sappy.
Anyways, awesome work, as always.

Thanks! I wanted to try something a bit different lol - i've done silhouettes in comics before, but not done a whole one as such so it was pretty interesting

Definitely good practice in expressing emotion in body language

Ok LOVE THIS. Amazing art as always, loving the bright colors and simple silhouettes.
And the song lyrics, that's a plus(Lean on me has always been close to my heart). My 6th grade class sang it all choir style in a music play thing we did. Its the first song I memorized perfectly and I have yet to forget the lyrics(all these years later) so it really hits the whole thing home for me with the artwork. GAWD I'm goin to cry...

But then where's the fun in that?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
OKAY YES FINE OMG
Fun? What is this fun you speak of?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I don't know how you do it, but you manage to make something as sweet as this tug on all the heartstrings, you know that? XD
The happy face pin, and the camaraderie, and the sheer emotion through freaking silhouettes... beautiful as usual!
DO NOT THREATEN WITH ANGST- DO NOT. MY FEELS CAN'T HANDLE IT. |D

I love it when people can get an emotion out of some of my arts, so i'm glad it did something for you lol X3
Also i think i may have subconsciously illustrated part of your story |D When i was drawing it it was like this seems oddly familiar and now i know why lmao.
Silhouettes are pretty fun to work with, you should try it sometime if you feel so inclined!
I CAN'T HELP IT I KNOW MY PATTERN OF ART AND THAT'S WHAT ALWAYS SEEMS TO HAPPEN |D;
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You've got a talent for bringing out emotion, ma'am.
Lols, I noticed and I love it! Subconscious powers!
Haha, I might- they seem pretty cool!
YOU CAN BEAT THIS PATTERN, I KNOW YOU CAN. BREAK THE MOLD, DARQX.
