Description
Few seconds falling unconscios after the Hollow attack, Rukia looks up in amazement, seeing that the Hollow is not defeated... but she´s about to die.No, don´t get me wrong, is not that I feel defeated, rather tired of all the fighting, worn out, disappointed at most of the people around me, alone... and watching in amazement that it´s still a long road of fighting... and my strength is gone...

Well, that was the point: I didn´t want her to look as she had given up... more like she was all drained up, but thank you for the suggestion and the comment!

You really do seem to have a way with poses. They just turn out natural, and you have a very aggressive inking technique that I like a lot. You can really tell which drawings are yours that show up on the queries because of that.
Rukia doesn't quite look down and out in this one - somehow, I have faith in our favorite shinigami to whip out Shirayuki and finish this battle against all odds. ^_^

"Our favorite shinigami".
Somehow, this statement makes me feel closer to you, odd, isn´t it?
I´m very thankfull to you for the effort of taking a walk and commenting the works I love the most.

OMG, is that the bite mark in the breast!?
XD Teasing you.
So. You got the skill to give them an expressive look. Really. Congrats. ^^
Nothing seems wrong to me here; I would tend to say the tights are a bit large, but when I look at it they doesn't seems weird at all. Nothing else to say, but awesomeness.^^
Two to go...

Did it help to get the feelings out of your system any?
I ~love~ the pose! It's like she has sunk to her knees in one fleeting moment of clarity that there might not be hope. She just has this incredulous stare like she is exhausted physically, mentally, and emotionally.
It's really beautiful. Amazing job, as always. I hope that things start going better for you!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
As always, your comment is superv. You´ve read me so well.
Yes, she´s sinking. Her body, her mind, her hope, are just crashing at the realization that it wasn´t enough. She couldn´t protect Ichigo, nor herself.
And yes, it helped a little to get those feelings. But at the end, the one thing that got it out was confrontation. I confronted the situation and, once done, now I feel better now. Worn out, but lot better.
Thank you so much for your concern and I´m sorry I´ve made you worry!!

Don't worry about it! I'm just so relieved and glad that you're feeling better!

When situations like these occur, sometimes it's good just to run away and re-think the strategy. You know the old saying "We might have lost the battle, but we won't loose the war". We all have moments where we face defeat- it's just as natural as success. But out of the ashes of destruction, one will rebirth into a wiser individual.
Like I said before, best to run and re-think the strategy.
And know that even when you think you are alone, you are never TRULY alone. Both on this plain, and the next, there are beings that watch over you. You just don't know it.

Thank you. You´re right, sometimes you feel so bad, that you just won´t look around you and see the ones standing close to you. So far, I still feel alone, and although my family is with me, I wouldn´t want them to know. So they don´t, which makes me feel worse. I just don´t want to worry them, you know?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That's true too.. after all, there is an old saying that says "suffering is personal". But i do remind you that your family is ALWAYS there, and these are the moments that they are meant for. If they sense you are troubled and not telling, it will worry them more than telling them.

*sighs*... yeah... I guess you´re right... then I´ll go tell and let you know later. Thank you so much for your concern

Of course I am concerned about you! You are my friend.

This the scene from 'Gathering strawberry'? She looks really cool, and...um....cool (sorry, I don't draw (just stare
Keep it up!!!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yep, from GS. Although Luna didn´t write that particular scene, I took the inspiration from the moment she´s about to colapse. That part, from the attack to where they´re saved, really pierced me.
I could hardly say how difficult it really is to draw something with a feeling, for that´s all I know how to do. I guess is just like skatting. When you´ve done it almost your whole life, it comes so easily that, if someone asks you how difficult it is, you just stare at the person, unsure of what to respond.

I can imagine. All your drawings have some emotion into them.

Is this from Rukia's Academy days? Love her pose. Are you the one writing all this stuff yourself?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No. there´s a fic I adore, called "Gathering Strawberry" and her first three chapters (specially the last one posted) are the ones getting me rolling. I recommend it! it´s at fanfiction.net

Love the intensity of the pose. You are probably the most dedicated Rukia fanartist on dA. Not in just sheer number of works, but to the spirituality and psychology of her as well.
Fantastic, fantastic work.
