Description "Husbands like Man Who Fights In Dress don't come along often." <-- random quote from... uh... Shanghai Noon, haha.

Selje'erke deserves a full portrait someday soon, because A) he's ridiculously fun to draw (ridiculously), B) you must all marvel at his beautiful bare feet (hahahalupiehaha), and C) if I don't do it my brain might implode. Just because. But for the time being we'll have to do with the Ed-Sullivan treatment: you see nothing below the waist! (Actually, it was the shoulders, but bah, you don't care. You don't even get what I'm talking about.)

...I'm having waaaaaay too much fun designing Selje'erke's random dresses and jewelry. He's such a clotheshorse. Greatest excuse for me to draw pointless details EVER! 8D I'd love to have a peek through his wardrobe, oooh lordy lordy.

The Knights are an easily distinguished breed of fae; they tend to be the most humanoid, other than their royals, and are also generally the tallest fae. Selje'erke has a typical elongated form and reaches roughly six-five (it's tricky to get an accurate measurement) in his bare feet, not counting headdresses or big hair. Although physically imposing (even in a dress, my goodness), Selje'erke only turns on the scary act when he's got his sword drawn, which happens somewhat rarely. Beware; he's got unbelievable reflexes.

Selje'erke is (c) meeeeeeeEEEeeee.


EDIT: haha, let's hear it for misleading titles! i didn't like it, so i changed it. dunno why i didn't like it 'le funambule' is the title of a medieval-ish song by neil brook. it's french for a tightrope act, i think. ...i'm big on this muuuuusic now D:

With your permission, then....Hey, tall thin people aren't hard to abduct - they're collapsible! Surely he'd fit in a suitcase if I folded him just right ^^

I really like the design of his dress on this one, and his sword looks badass.

*sneaks up from behind and glomps him*

the-apprentice [2006-12-09 04:47:44 +0000 UTC]

he strikes me as mildly worrying. the kind of feeling you get when you're sure something is out of place, but you're quite sure what.

i get that feeling out of this picture.

AND YOU KNOW WHAT/WHO HE REMINDS ME OF!?


himself. :3 which is totally mcawesome mindblowing on it's own because he's damn pretty...yet. not a femmy-fem-fem-head excuse of a fae.

It is particularly unfair how pretty Selje'erke is, but his bony male shoulders and bony male hips make up for it spectacularly. Love love love the pretty details and his fwooshy hair.

For some strange reason, I'm reminded of Davey Havok in the video "Love Like Winter". Especially the jewls around the eyes.

I think I'm going to look through his wardrobe with you; I'd love to steal some of his lovely dresses.

He's so shiny and spiffy and amazing.

And that collar...I give you props for making NOT look like a Dracula collar. I tried drawing one of those recently, and I was like...ew, he looks like Dracula. And I erased it, and I was angry.

But anyway. I digress. Amazing work, as usual. =]

I am loving the soft, feminine facial structure and I adore the colour of his eyes especially.

Xilantress [2006-12-08 08:26:34 +0000 UTC]

kinda feel like this character is slightly inspired by Mana...from malice mizer.. looks vectory...would hope there was more detail in the colouring though unless you wanted that.

milo2 In reply to Xilantress [2006-12-08 08:40:12 +0000 UTC]

no inspiration from mana, and i hate malice mizer.

no vectors here, because i suck at them.

and the colouring stays the way it is.
