Description
So I broke down and watched Legend, and that same night had a vividly romantic dream about Tim Curry as Darkness. As you do. I can't be the only good girl who has a crush on the devil, can I?I didn't care for the movie aside from Darkness, and was especially put off by the character Lily, so I wondered who would be appropriate to pair with His Evilness. Saint Agape (of Barbucci & Canepa's Sky Doll) just kind of inserted herself, and she's perfect. She's an embodiment of goodness and sacrifice, of sensuality and a pure heart -- and they still have things in common. If Darkness is going to fall in love with someone, I want it to cripple him. I want him to be completely defeated by her. I want him to give in. That's what good love does to you.
I would almost guarantee that these two have never been drawn on the same paper together. I also almost guarantee (less confidently) that this is the last time I'll be drawing Darkness. But I said that about Bowie, so. You never know.
materials: pencil, paper, PS7
music: Gigi, "NafekeΓ±"

Amazing two toned image.
Though I love this movie for its visuals like you I really struggle with the story as Tom cruise isn't right as the lead and I think maybe he should have been cut out or switched to a none romantic second hero role role and then they should have made Lily the main hero because her turning on darkness and fighting him with a sword at and the end would have been epic battle but sadly it was the 80's and the attitude was mostly girls were not allowed unless they were a romantic props.

Now this is a drawing I can relate to. I LOVE Sky Doll and Legend was my favorite movie growing up.

Though I was still a kid when I first saw Legend, I found Darkness so fascinating, I too began to fall in love with him. I am extremely fond of Tim Curry's voice though, even the way he did Hexus from Fern Gully.

nope. i kinda has aΒ crush on him too. can chu blame meh?Β he is irisistbly charming and even with all that power and that freaky scary build, he'd try to win you over through affection and gifts instead of force. when that guy is in love, he is in it over his head and makes chu the center of his universe.. at least... in the begining <.< >.> *dun dun dunnnnn*

This is wonderful work.Β
So happy to have found your gallery and this particular deviation.
I have seen this film but it was quite a while ago. Β Sounds like it doesn't hold up very well.

The devil would choose an innocent child as his pawn to fulfill his darkest purpose.

Yeah, never actually finished that movie. Tried watching it last year, but hated it. Except for the devil, he was cool, but otherwise the movie had no real entertainment value for me. Then again, I was watching Predator and Aliens when I was four so I may be biased.
Anyways, great job!

.......Oddly I have recently had a vividly romantic dream of this too...after watching the movie for the first time...hmmm

I refuse to watch that movie, because I know I'll become obsessed with Darkness and I'm Catholic, I can't love the Devil 
(But I already have a tiny, itty bitty crush on him, simply because it's Tim Curry. I am, as a straight female, obligated to love him.)
On the picture: It's perfect. I love how tiny she is compared to him (I like big men and little women. It is one of my many romantic weaknesses.).
I also like how his horns sort of surround her, like only she can enter his personal bubble. Or like his presence is kind of sheltering her, protecting her, for lack of a better word.
Also, her hair and the shading on him is just gorgeous.

Dude, it's just a fictional character

Oh honey, you can love this devil. He is not THE devil. The Devil is rape, slaughter, starving babies, companies that let thousands die of cancer so they can make money off pharmaceuticals. Tim Curry's devil is charming and not all bad. C:
I'm glad you like this!

...Oh my God, you're right. Tim Curry makes everything heavenly.
