Description
After like twive (two + five) hours with photoshop i managed to finish this (damn you text, why can't you put text in sai on a picture?)
would have been finished way faster but well
i was in italy and i couldnt draw there so i had to finish it the last 2 days
deciced to go with the bigger version aswell, the smaller version would only have taro
but i wanted to draw aimi, dorothea, luna, stella and sol there (yes, their designs took most of the time well okay not really but i had to (re)design them so that took its time)

soo.. it's the 2nd picture for that contest by CrispyCh0colate

Round two was musical inspiration and my song was globus - take me away
www.youtube.com/watch?v=9AFg4S… ; listen to it here

after a first listening the beginning was rather strange for me but i liked the song overall. (violins tho)
had a more or less taro-feeling to that song so i deciced to draw him
poor taro mostly killed all of his friends, relationships, family members etc
slowly he begins to become desperate because he cant stand what he did anymore
and since hes an angel he prays and wants god/heaven to help him
poor poor boy

lyrics to that song:
Kneel, in silence, alone,
My spirit bears me
Pray, for guidance, towards home
In darkest hours

Kneel (dream with your dream we travel)
In Silence (empires of faith unravel)
Alone (sealed with our virtues' treasures)
Kingdoms falling -

Down (whose hand commands this thunder?)
In silence (cry as we're torn asunder)
Alone (unto what gods do I call?)
Protects us in our...

Fall, away -
My soul wandered,
Borne by grace
I flew on high.! Sheltered -
From this thunder
Calling heaven...

Take me away from time and season
Far, far away we'll sing with reason
Prepare our throne of stars above me
As the world once known will leave me

Take me away upon a plateau
Far, far away from fears and shadow
Strengthen my heart in times of sorrow
Light the way to bright tomorrows

Answer our call in desperate hours
Shelter our fall from earthly powers
Temper our souls with flame and furnace
Bear us toward a noble purpose

Heaven hides nothing in it's measure
Mortal men blinded by false treasure
Formless and vanquished we shall travel
Shield and sword will guide our battle

Take me away from time and season
Far, far away we'll sing with reason
Prepare a throne of stars above me
As the world once known will leave me

Take me away upon a plateau
Far, far away from fears and shadow
Strengthen my heart in times of sorrow
Light the way to bright tomorrows

Heaven hides nothing in its measure
Mortal men blinded by false treasure
Formless and vanquished we shall travel
Shield and faith will guide our battle

Salvation comes in desperate hours
Angels on high proclaim these powers
Lead us from chaos we shall follow
Bear us to a bright tomorrow
