Description I have NO idea what this means, so yeah...don't ask. No, that's not a wolf, he's something else that I don't have a name for yet. He's a redesign of one of my older characters, and he's so fun to draw when I'm feeling kinda depressed. He ish Lucas! And no, I don't normally draw him stuck to trees. I don't know why he's stuck to one here. He just IS. The lines are kinda shakey, I know...I haven't done lineart on paper for a long time and I get the feeling that most people use smoother paper for lineart anyway. It's also cut off...not much I can do about that, my sketchbook is just slightly bigger than my scanner. Deal with it.

So yeah. Done while listening to a whole CD of Evanescence and all or most of a Linkin Park CD. And while feeling kinda depressed. Did this a week ago (last Friday after school) and was gonna color it, but I think it looks better on it's own.

If you say it looks like Jesus on the cross (and I know it does just a little) I will rip off your ears and toes and make them into a salad. I don't know what the meaning of this picture is, but it's NOT that. So THERE.

art and character © me. no stealin'. ...no coloring either, unless I give you permission to do so.

I swear, it looks much better in real life...not all pixilated and all that...-sigh-

I think what this symbloises is growing. as you lif keeps getting longer and youbranch out to new horisons you constantly claw you way upward but you can never be rid of your roots wich hold you up this far. and so since you cannot excape your past you are in essence nailed to a tree bounding you to your origins and in this case keeping you above ground.

Wow how late or early were you up last night? Seriously you must have been up anywhere between 1:00 and 5:00!

Depends on where you live, I posted that reply earlier...right now it's 5:30 AM and I'm thinking I should go to bed before the sun starts to come up. When I posted that reply it was like...12 AM or so.

I do stay up very late though, over breaks I'm pretty much nocturnal.

Woah, what's going on in this picture? Don't get me wrong, though, I like it a lot! It is very original, I can tell you that. The blindfold you drew on him looks really good! WHOO!

You know, the whole "chop up fingers and toes" thing kinda reminded me of an ask a ninja video where he said that a fun game to play was to chop off the tips of your fingers, mix them in a bowl, and then try to reattach them all before you bleed to death.... Made me want to try it, but then I thought better of it.... Now I want to try it again

LOL nah, that doesn't sound too fun. I'd be afraid I put the fingertips back on the wrong fingers. Then my hands would be all deformed. O.o;;

No idea what's going on in this picture...like I said, I'm not sure what it means. I just kinda...drew it. Maybe I'll be able to figure out some kind of meaning for it later, but now...it shall remain an enigma XD

Lucas has sorta become another character (I just love making thems new characters) and he has that rag/blindfold/whatever over his eyes because...he doesn't have any. I'll have to upload my doodles of him, they actually look kinda neat. And for some reason, I gave him a magical staff thingy, and I have NO idea where that came from, but he's not going to have it in any future pictures. -makes mental note to scan the other sketchbook doodles-

Oh yeah, and thankies much for the complements XD

Oh.... ummm... ew. No eyes? Well that would kind of suck x.x <-- literally, get it? Oh, I'm a roit! If that's how you spell that...

I like giving compliments! It makes other people happy, and that makes me happy too! WHOO!

WINGS!!! -hides behind tree and makes face- XD I'm kidding. It really does look good. MAN, I need to come to your school so at least if I suck in Drawing I'm not friendless. And, like, I could have you two and if I was there you'd look even better since I suck so compared to my drawings, you'd look, like, Picasso or something. Or... whatever.

you can take art as an elective, but lemme tell ya...art isn't easy XD It's probably harder for me since it's my major, but still. omgosh, you make friends at this school SO FAST, you'd have far more than just me and Casey. All you have to do is go I LIKE KINGDOM HEARTS!!! or something to that effect, and VOILA, instant buddies! ...seriously. And it's like people can't stand to see you sit by yourself at lunch, so you can make friends just by not having any too.

grieverwings In reply to explodingmuffins [2006-09-16 10:21:15 +0000 UTC]

...man. Like I've said before, my school's like a zoo, which is why I now frequent the library during lunch hours. At least then I don't feel like a monkey in a cage while other people point and throw garbage at it. XD Instant buddies. I wonder what effect the Cloud Song would have on LVA? It could take the city by storm, annoying all who hear it and forging a path of destructive, obnoxious singers!!!!

...I have no idea where that came from, ignore that.
