Description Yarrrr!!!
8 hours of work totally worth it!
Totally proud of this *___*
Done entirely in markers aside from a few highlights with black and white pencils.
Title is from a song by The Used ([link] ) which i've wanted to do a picture to for ages. Such an awesome song.
Anywayz, this is scene from an rp with *bec-sparrow when Carlos becomes a werewolf. Woo! Yeah, the werewolf is Dikky. And look at the terrified lil' 16 year old Carlos! I seem to love making him suffer.
Lyrics for chu awesome peoples!
He wears his heart safety-pinned to his backpack
His backpack is all that he knows
Shot down by strangers whose glances can cripple
The heart and devour the soul

All alone he turns to stone
While holding his breath half to death
Terrified of what's inside to
Save his life, he crawls like a worm from a bird
(All alone) crawls like a worm from a bird

Out of his mind the way pushes him whispering
Must have been out of his mind
Mid-day delusions are pushing this out of his head
Maybe out of his mind
Out of his mind

All alone he turns to stone
While holding his breath half to death
Terrified of what's inside to
Save his life, he crawls like a worm (crawls like a worm)
Crawls like a worm from a bird (crawls like a worm)
(All alone) Crawls like a worm from a bird
(All alone) Crawls like a worm from a bird
(All alone) Crawls like a worm
Crawls like a worm from a bird

All he knows
If he can't relieve it, it grows
And so it goes
He crawls like a worm
Crawls like a worm from a bird

He
Crawls like a worm
He
Crawls like a worm
He
Crawls like a worm
Crawls like a...

Out of his mind the way pushes him whispering
Must have been out of his mind

All alone he turns to stone
While holding his breath half to death
Terrified of what's inside to
Save his life, he crawls like a worm from a bird
All alone he's holding his breath half to death
(Holding his breath half to death)
Terrified to
Save his life
He crawls like a worm (crawls like a worm)
Crawls like a worm from a bird
(All alone) Crawls like a worm from a bird
(All alone) Crawls like a worm from a bird
(All alone) Crawls like a worm
Crawls like a worm
Crawls like a worm from a bird

Media: Prismacolor/Pro markers, Crayola/WHSmith pencils (Black and white), white gel pen, fineliners.
Time: Like.... 8 hours maybe? Over the course of 3 days.

Bah, all you people with your insanely detailed marker-work... it makes me really want to do marker stuff again, but I'm just not patient enough to make it look this good.

Everything in this just looks fantastic. The poses rock, and I'm really envious of how you did the moon/sky and the trees. Simply awesome work!

HAHA I knew I'd forgotten to do something and it was to come back and give this bebeh some full on Becca lovin!!
D'ya think it would crease if i attempted to rape it?
Most likely..

Oooooooooh Livvi duuuuuuuude! I do think this is one of your best to date, I really love this one and I'm thinking it just has to be those uber awesome and bright colours you used Eeeeeee becca has a colour fetish! O______O
That sure is one heckuva 8 hour work picture, and the time taken to do it was SOOOOO worth it Bwahaha!!

Carlos. is. Sexy.
OMFG he's like Becca age in this picture (kinda) Eeeeee O_O
Erm.. voices in my head recommend me not going further with that point but what the heck! He's gorgeous BWAHAA So very good looking lol!
Its rather funny to see him without any facial hair LOLz XD

Em em em.. The poses are awesome!! O____O I still just adore Dikky werewolf's claws, you know how they are clawing that tree into a bazillion thousand pieces *sniggers* We'll all have toothpicks tonight *_* omgwtf shut up Becca *slaps* Its so awesome!!

I love how mindless Dikky looks in this one, you can ust tell he's been on a killing spree and I think thats ebcause his eyes have very tiny pupils, so he looks like a zombie type monster! MWahahaha! EVIL DIKKY ON TEH LOOSE!!!! Yessss *starts to hum thin Lizzy* A lady killer on the loose!!!

Not that carlos is a lady..

Ahem.. yes well Ooooooooooooh i do love how you've put in the KEEP OUT sign, like the one I did in one of my old pictures.. it keeps the theme recurring doesn't it? Nyah yes it sure looks awesometastic! mabbe it was wriiten in blurrrrrrrrrrd i mean.. that poor soul >_>

Liv LIV LIVVVVVVVV!!! Why do you draw Dikky werewolf so good dude? he just looks so spiffy in that awesometastic lab coat of his!and I love how his ginger neckline has ripped his shirt at the seams from the back! Its so dynamicly awesome!!

Okay moving onto the most gorgeously gorgeous Carlos in the world *____* Eeee!! He looks cute, so cute Bwaha i love how you've changed his clothes slightly.. in fact.. O__O he's wearing what I am wearing right this very second O_O except my red top doesn't open like the jacket.. how I do love red and white *__* Woot! and jeans too!

I like the blood downt he side of his face too! It shows that there has been quite a battle and a struggle here.. Poor little carlos! *tries to kiss him better* NYAaaaaaaaaaH!!! I love his pose! Its so vulnerable

And the background is indeed the sex. The trees look awesome and that creamy full moon looks so awesome!!! the random log there is cool. I like it. I bet Dikky slammed carlos into a tree or someting and broke it!! NYAAAAH ramapaging Dikky FTW!!!

Anyway yesh, sum up.. uber awesome picture here Livvimus! You really do draw Dikky amazingly (thankie for including mah little Dikkums) and Carlos looks awesome like always! keep up the awesome-sauce work of awesometasticness!!

Aw, poor Carlos. So this is where it all began huh? Haha just simply awesome. x3
Hehe it is kind of funny how much Carlos has matured from not being strange where it seems like not even the largest things scare him. Haha I think Paul learned that. xD

Hehe Carlos looks so different that it isn't funny but however, It really shows how the aging process works. xD Haha, awesome work on their expressions. ^^ They look great, especially Carlos' "Holy shit, I'm gonna die" look. *snickers*

As for the coloring, they rawk! Awesome work! If I didn't know any better, I'd say that you're a professional with them! *wink*

Awesome pic Liv! It looks totally awesome!
