Description
One of the panels from my Labyrinth art meme -- you got cheated! ;DThis is my favorite scene in Labyrinth. (Me, and like, every other girl who watches it) It kills me how Jareth spends the movie up to then taunting and eluding her, making her quest pretty miserable. She's looking for him in the crowd of masqueraders and he brushes past her, laughs at her, teases her, and then suddenly there she is right in front of him, and she's all he wants. He's completely owned by her. It's that beautiful ballet of power. So romantic it makes my head swim.
I spent more time on this one than the other panels, and it's pretty, I think. The dark side of Sarah's face gave me hell, though. She's so impossibly beautiful that I can never get her right. But I think I did a pretty good job on Jareth.

I love that movie too! My history teacher lent it to me last year after she found out I like Tim Burton movies, saying I should definitely watch it. I believe her exact words were "One thing you have to see before you die is David Bowie in tights." That made me rofl. I don't have history anymore, but she was way cool, had the same taste as me in a lot of stuff and is the only teacher I ever met that knew what "Straight Edge" means.
You did great on this pic!

Sounds like you had a cool teacher. (: Ever seen The Dark Crystal?

Yeah, she was way cool (and only 23). She proudly told the entire class she used to be a goth and was Kate Bush obsessed, lol. Maaah, I want her back. XD
No, haven't seen that one. Is it good? I'm gonna look it up on imdb

Quite frankly, I think Sarah made a big mistake turning the Goblin King down in the end.
But you know...
If she had stayed with him, she would have been harassed by angry fangirls who thought Jareth should be theirs instead.
It's a lose-lose situation.
This is gorgeous, by the way.
:]
The way you draw Jareth makes my head spin.
hahaha

WELLL, there was more at stake than just her baby brother. She had her virtue to protect. Plus, a fling with the King would be delicious, but do they have banana ice cream in the Underground? Or hugs from your mama? Or James Brown?

Agreed
BUT
I'm sure the Goblin King could bend the rules enough to get her nearly anything she could wish for.
Maybe not James Brown...
But banana ice cream could be do-able.
If not, she could always settle for peach. C:

I just love your style. Somehow this artwork is simple but very effective!

Yeah... that part has a tendency to make everyone's hearts flutter, haha.
As far as this goes, I like the fact that you've got Sarah looking away from Jareth rather than at him. *shrug* It just kind of suggests that she's still not comfortable with him. *shakes fist at Sarah*

Totally. She knows something ain't right. And lucky, too. If it'd been me, I'd've danced until my time was long up.

I enjoy Jareth's expression a lot more than Sarah's. So soft and in love with this girl.
I suppose Sarah is scared and running away? The movement in her earring is nice though! ^.^;;

I love that moment, when she gets startled by another dancer and he relishes the added closeness. I imagine he's smelling her hair.
π: 0 β©: 1
I think he is.
Oh boy. This is my favorite movie.
You know you got it bad when you can picture this scene frame by frame in your head!

If I were a stalker, I'd probably stalk you. But I'm not, so don't worry
I'll just fav your artwork a million times and leave comments that make your eyes bleed.
Nothing too flashy.
