Description Aww, look at who decided to drop by :3 And if that isn't the redhead bunny.... uh-oh, I mean, Demon, Setrin. He's soooooo gonna hate me now :3

So.... If you have no idea who that is.... well of course not, he's never appeared in my gallery before. But deep down I know he's likely to appear again, from time to time. Why? CUZ I FUCKING LOVE HIM!!! XD Course I do, he Demon after all.
But okay, let's start from the beginning, sorta. Even if I cannot really tell much of a story. He's a Demon. And.... ummm.... guess you could say he is my best friend's.... friend? I seriously don't know what they are. This one here describes their relationship pretty accurately:Β Some things never change... Β XD But yeah. She's the one who introduced me to him. Nice fellow. Often seen smiling (with a kinda inverted kind of smile XD ), lately seen a lot as bat. But in the past seen in all manner of strange animal forms. Most of which he didn't really enjoy. I mean, compared to bunneh, bat is some serious progress. Guess, no wonder he smiles so much XD

If I have to be honest though, he always felt quite nice to me. In his nonchalant, abrupt way. I only decided to draw him with that kind of expression because that's how he's usually seen in his countless "encounters" with Alex. What can I say, their friendship is special like that. And since this is first and foremost a gift to her.... I dunno, it just felt right. Besides, I think he prefers to have this spiteful, dangerous and evil air about him. The one saying, he doesn't like your nonsense. And he's totally badass. Doesn't work so well in his bunneh form tho X3 I cannot fucking help myself XD

So yeah, another one drawn secretly as a gift for my bestie. References stolen, kept top secret and (soon to be) smuggled right into her house when I go to visit her. You know how that goes. I'm the outlaw again :3 Mwahaha :3
Oh, by the way? Is the background pink? Strictly speaking, it is. But nooo, it not pink. It just a veeeeery pale shade of his own bloodred. Aww, but why pink and red go so well together sometimes XD


2B - 8B; red, pink, two browns and black color pencils. Also, first time Polychromos dance :3
A4 paper. About 7 hours. Makes a little more than an average portrait these days.

Vraiment très jolie. Les nuances des gris avec le rouge donnent un rendu très agréable à regarder.

He smiles about as much as Walter. XD
It's still so odd to see him in a realistic style, not in a bad way, it's just since my mind works in the simpler "cartoon vision" this is just quite a shift. It definitely makes the gaze more intense. And yeah, the expression is on point, good old Snarly McGrrr Face as always (congrats, he just got a new nickname because of this so now he's gonna murder us both! ). Really makes me want to either start a fight or hug him for maximum irritation. X3
And to add to the little conversation going on up there, I definitely agree that the red and gray combination works quite well, as I keep saying, he's the colors of blood and stone. Though not that I would ever admit to have complimented anything about him. But the pink most definitely suits him. X3
Again, thank you for this too. *hugs*

Walter? (But yeah, that's basically what the "inverted kinda way" of smiling was for XD )
loooolll Snarly McGrrr, gotta love that. I'll have to draw him again JUST to put this as title to the drawing XD Aww, mate, I think he was gonna murder us anyway at this point XD

Yeah, people really seem to like the combination. And so do I. Especially knowing what they kinda.... symbolize, and that suits him very well. Oh and yes, I knew from the start you were gonna appreciate the pink XD

You're most welcome, my friend *hugs*

www.jeffdunham.com/wp-content/… As you can tell he smiles a lot too. XD
Yus, my corruptive influence of maximum annoyity (that's a word now) is spreading. >:3
True, but you know me, I like giving him even more reasons for it. XD

Of course, nothing more fitting than the pink. X3

I still really like the combination of the Red on grey. That's a really unique look and I love how you did it here! and your faces are always so structured and the angle is on point arg. Also love the wrinkles in the face Again those red eyes against the grey really is nice in my opinion. And as usual the horns look awesome to. I'm sure your friend loved this!Β

Thank you so much! Well, I have no merits for this, that's simply his colors. I agree it's a surprisingly nice combination and it works well with my part color technique, hehe. As for the face, yeah, I suppose having drawn a zillion human portraits pays off in the end XD Though drawing one without a physical reference is always challenging. But the wrinkles and horns do make it more fun XD
Thank you very much, Sibera

Well forward my compliments to him. the looks is very becoming for him. ^^ but indeed I do like how this came out anyway. Also is very different and just makes his appearance very unique.Β 

Arg a bit jealous I guess since human anatomy is still very difficult for me to grasp. But then I'm not so accustom to drawing them I guess.Β 

No problem!

Aww, thanks. I did X3 And yeah, he's recognizable :3

Wasn't really for me either. In fact I was tutored at some point.
