Description
Riku/Sora, from KHII - Click for full view.Hi! Some people were offended by yaoi pictures in my gallery, so I figured it'd be polite to put a little warning on the thumbnail for them, even thought this is pretty light slash content.
I had a dream last night. The best I've ever dreamed
and when I woke I realized it was better than it seemed.
Skin like velvet, eyes of blue. My fears and dreams collided and came true.
-- "Dreams Away" by Stretch Arm Strong
I don't like the song itself (lots of rage shouting), but I like their lyrics, and they helped inspire the picture.
SPOILER SPOILER for the stuff in KHII and a little CoM

A little surreal, but it's like Namine had to scribble Sora out of their lives.
The picture is supposed to be kind of a half-dream of Riku's. In the process of restoring Sora's memories, everyone had to forget about him, even his friends. Although they couldn't remember him, their hearts could, and the feeling was like an emptiness in their chest...
[/narration]
The little sketchy flowers are supposed to be forget-me-nots.

really nice concept... everything came out so well. I like all the white and how it envelops Sora and covers his eyes

You have an awesome gallery, I just started browsing through it. I really like this picture though, I think its probably the texture you put into it.
:\ If I could, Id want this as a poster.

such a sensitive and lots of thoughts waking drawing ~ it has so much emotions in it which makes it really interesting and the perspective gives nicely touch of mysteriousness that it doesn't show all the meanings so easily. really like the detail that characters are like melting together but they are still separated to apart in one way, emphasize the idea of yours that even if they can't remember each other but their hearts can and that way they are together ^_^ position is very sweet, makes them be so close which gives warm feeling. also like the way you didn't draw the eyes for the characters, gives more space for imagination but also emphasize the emotions of the atmosphere really well. colouring is very neat and smooth, especially on the skin ~ makes the skin look so soft and gentle. highlights on the hair are natural looking as the shadings. background is like water, emphasize the melting effect but also gives some way touch from birth of being close to somebody. light blue colouring give lovely calm feeling and is gentle to look at. overall magnificent work

AAAAH SO SAD! >.< I wanna cry!
This shouldn't have a warning at all. If people don't like it, they shouldn't look at it.
And also, this is a powerful picture if you know the reference...

Thank you ;-; <33 And it makes me sad for Riku when I think about all he must have gone through while Sora was asleep.

Some people are just not as open to seeing different things, I guess, and perhaps too sensitive :/

Geez! There's not even contact! Not that I'm complaining, because it's super duper awesome as it is, but those people weirding out about there being yaoi...dumb. Just dumb. This is crazy good and you are crazy cool. <33

Haha, yeah, it's not even showing anything, but I figured those who hate yaoi wouldn't want to see this anyway hence the warning.
Thanks for the comments!!

madhatterzwei In reply to rubyd [2006-11-06 00:13:48 +0000 UTC]
I understand completely. It's good of you to put it anyway.
As for the comments, no problem. Great artists deserve lots of comments. It boosts your self-esteem, which makes you want to draw more, which means we get to look at more great art, which means we get to leave more comments.
See? It works for everyone. <3

This picture makes me really, really sad.
Like...near tears sad.
I love the composition and the expressions, the implications of the emotions before and after.
Wonderful, wonderful piece. * sniffles and wipes her eyes with a tissue *

Huzzaah for YAOI! Esspecially KH Yaoi.
You executed this wonderfully..
it calms me, so it's hard to make an exciting comment.
(hence the 's.)
