FINALLY. I've been working on this picture for about a week now. It started off as a totally abstract mental image I got from listening to Fall Out Boy's 'Thnks Fr Th Mmrs', and then it was just a pain in the ass for a long time after I sketched it. The background was a pain, coloring in the body parts was annoying, and for a while, I was REALLY attached to the green sketch and didn't want to get rid of it XD I opted for no lineart this time because lineart on a dark background just doesn't look right no matter how you do it.

As for what's in the picture, well, you're not supposed to tell exactly where I am. I know, it looks like a rave/concert/etc., but it's not. It's just not. I'm nowhere in particular. All that you're supposed to know about my location is that I'm up high somewhere, although it's kinda hard to see that.

You know what's really weird? When I draw sad pictures, I'm almost always bleeding/have blood in the picture. When I do happy pictures they're silly doodles. But when I do angry pictures, I'm always smiling. And they're usually colorful. So, it's usually hard to tell. But if I do anything else, people just find it funny. It's not supposed to be funny.

So I'm just standing up on something high looking down at everyone else, not caring what the hell anyone thinks of me. Do I look like I'm a goth? I guess to some people I do. I'm not punk, either. Okay? I'm just myself. Some people try to change who I am with insults that make me feel bad. I'm sorry you don't approve, but if you have a problem with something about me, you'll have to deal with it. I'm not going to change just for you. My other problem is that this world is so damn hateful and screwed up. Why join hateclubs and devote time and evergy to creating websites that say how stupid someone is? Why judge someone just because they have a different religion than you? Why hate someone because they dress differently? Just because it's your way doesn't make you right and them wrong. Just different. And different is not bad. Uh...not sure how that relates to the picture but it's something that went through my head while working on it.

.x----x.

Sorry, I know that was long. If nothing else, the meaning of the picture is in the last big paragraph XD And the second big paragraph is kinda important too.

Another cool one.I love the style you have.


I think it would be neat to draw something like that, but have buildings littering the background, but tiny, tiny, tiny, and itty bitty dots for the lights

Wow, this one's pretty. I also liked the ones you did on the desktop, but I'm much too lazy to comment on those too...

So, you drew all of the small chain links by yourself, painstakingly? Wow. That's commitment for you.

I just spent the last week defeating Zelda Twilight Princess. Sorrry if my brain's a little scrambled!

read the description, the fence brush was made my someone else. It only took about two minutes to put the chains in.

It still looks pretty! You almost had me fooled.

^^ I like it! XD I can't help but feel (from the "last big paragraph") that you were thinking about your epic comment. ^^ I do like the picture, though. I think the smile adds some sort of... eh... creepy quality to the picture, you know? But a good creepy quality. And the colors are spectacular - it's just cool. ^^ You always come up with really neat stuff.

heh heh. If my smiling scares you, then that's good X3 I'm feeling a little creepy in this picture.

I love the colors. After seeing MystΓ©re, I LOVE colorfulness on a black background.

Actually, I wrote that epic comment AFTER I posted this picture XDDD I must have felt very talkative last night.
