Description I love how I was all like "AU WHERE JEAN IS A BOXER AND SALIM IS HER COACH" and Devonition was just like "isn't that what they are anyway" and I'm like "......you're right..."

OH WELL.  Still made for a good picture hahahah, it's been forever since I did a digital painting for myself so holy crap I'm a little rusty, b-but, this was fun-!
Sorry if anyone's sick of seeing Jean stuff but I still love this little angry child ok? ok
(I'm going to try to work on so many more things though, like comics and actual story things, sorryyyy /sob)

Jean is from my story Iris :

Wow, Jean looks so badass in this piece! And she usually looks quite badass, so getting her to look even more badass is pretty impressive!XP Love the pose, it gives the entire drawing such a strong impression! And I really like the textures, especially on the bandages!
Also, the lighting on her face looks very good, I love the tones in colors that makes it seem kinda beaten up and swollen on the cheek! And also, the blood! XP

Hahahahah, oh maaaan thanks so much for the super-kind comment, hehehe!!  <3  The textures are totally accidental of me just fudgin' around in Photoshop hahaha, but thaaanks!!  I use the pencil tool on variable opacity so it makes for some interesting textures for me~ x)  
(And blood is just too much fun lmao, I know I overdo it every time but I just, can't help myself-! XD)

Well, you got an awesome result from doing that!
(Yep, it's way too much fun splatting blood over your OC, difficult not to do it XP)

Whe someone gets knocked down by Jean, they can get back up but they know it's better to just stay down.

Yeaaaaaaaah if they're smart they'd definitely wanna stay down.  ...And maybe play dead, since sometimes she fights to the very end. 8'D;;

Jean is super cute, may I ask about her chest? It seems like there were incisions to remove her breasts, is that how it is? I'm intrigued about this character if you don't mind me asking!

Laitma In reply to spacerocketbunny [2015-03-10 07:48:03 +0000 UTC]

Ahhh but of course, I never mind answering questions about my characters!!

Yeah, she has a double mastectomy!  Jean's a vamp, and a lot of vamps who don't have blood partners/stable sources of blood end up in the underground fight rings, which are heavily male-dominated and almost completely lawless/chaotic.  She tried to hide her sex but got found out and basically raped; she ended up choosing to get her breasts removed, which, well, if nothing else cemented her image of "psychotic bitch who'll literally rip your face off" (which she did once, along with systematically killing the ones who'd attacked her) and, well, it kind of worked in getting them to leave her alone, hahaha.  That, and not long after Salim showed up and kind of made it his self-proclaimed duty to try and "protect" her from the other vamps, much to Jean's disdain, hahahaha.

ahhh I see!! Thats a really interesting backstory! It makes me kind of sad to know that because she's female that had to happen to her but I suppose these things happen in real life I love how of a little ball of fire she is though, she's so feisty!! Oh also, who's Salim? I think I recall seeing the same incisions on their chest that Jean does? Or am I misconstruing that with another character?

Laitma In reply to spacerocketbunny [2015-03-10 16:50:51 +0000 UTC]

Ahahahahaha, Salim's the idiot shithead who keeps on getting beat up/put down by Jean, hahahahah!  Happy Valentine's Day 2015
(I collectively call the two of them the cannibal couple since they are both actual literal cannibals hahaha)

And you might have 'em confused with Sariel--Jean and Sariel reference/info  which is actually just Jean, older!  Shit happens and she ends up with black hair and stuff, hahahaha.  (So technically everything to do with Jean and Salim is backstory stuff for my novel, b-b-but I just love backstories too much-!!)

OH I SEE NOW! Sorry I just wasn't remembering correctly aha! Salim and Jean seem to have a rather fascinating relationship

Laitma In reply to spacerocketbunny [2015-03-22 08:48:33 +0000 UTC]

Pahahahahah, no problem man, and hahaha, they really do!!

I feel bad because I think I always just end up drawing really cutesy/funny scenarios between them, but in reality they like, barely even get along and it isn't long before they kind of start to tear each other apart because they're both kind of shit people hahahahah;;;;  
/goes away to a corner to cry over jean/salim;;;

It makes coloring so much more fun, when you can do crazy dramatic lighting situations-!  XD
