Description
I decided to try drawing something semi realistic and work on using colored pencils and TA-DA!It pretty much took hours.
I just got to thinking about FMA and thought about how rarely Ed cries or shows all the pain he must be going through constantly. At least from what we can see..but I bet he breaks down sometimes when no one is around. This is one of those moments. After all hes been through and is going through, the guy needs to cry every once and a while because hes only human.
Which is why I titled it Only Human. Also its a lyric from a beautiful song called Flowers for a Ghost by Thriving Ivory. I love the bridge where it repeats "I'm only human" because it sums up a lot of feelings in three words.
I didn't use reference for this, it was all in my head. My mom is an artist so she gave me pointers since Im new to realism like styles but it was only for a few little things. Ed always has been one of my favorite people to draw. Probably because of the automail, I LOVE drawing automail.
PS: I know..the room looks empty. I did it on purpose. I didn't want the room to be the focus and I hate drawing scenery.

It's true, he hardly ever cries. I think the poor boy needs a good cry. *huggles* X3 there there Edo...
Very sweet and emotional, I like the roughness

I really love how you drew it, I also love how it's focused on him instead of the room that was great to leave it empty.
Favorited!

I really like the style! It conveys a lot of emotion. Especially since I think Ed is a personal friend of mine o_O *delusional*

asklfdhtgj! This is amazing, Em. And you say you can't draw. =3= Bunch of lies.
And the empy-ish room was a good choice. Adds to the feeling of sadness. ^w^b
Guh. I love this too much. I can't even finish a sentence without looking back up at it. XD

This is simply beautiful! The use of pencils as your medium for this piece gives it a very rough and rustic look, but that suits it perfectly! The roughness reflects Ed's emotions beautifully! I love it!!

Thank you! I wanted it to look kind of rough and my mom kept telling me to smooth it out more. xD So I'm glad it fits.
I've only really worked with pencil. I really want to try to start painting though.
