------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I started on this maybe three days ago, and I have to say, it was one of the easiest image I have done, and one of the most fun.

Here we have Pitch Black, the Boogeyman, depicted in an old photograph formatted image, playing a piano. The flowers on the piano are Night Gladiolus flowers, a type of flower that blooms at night.

I always pictured Pitch with the skill - and the hands - to the play the piano, so I figured I'd give my depiction of him doing so! It's a rather bleak, lonely image, but that's what I love about it! I am actually very proud with how it came out, despite being dog tired and having worked on it to completion when I actually want to sleep. So...

MM-KAY, I AM GOING TO BED NOW. GOOD NIGHT, I AM SLEEPING FOREVER.

Review please~

I can relate to this picture a great deal more than I can say. As a pianist, percussionist, virtual instrumentalist, guitarist, organist and keyboardist I can safely say that this picture completely resonates with me on a spiritual level. By the way, I once tried cello in middle school back when I was in band, but I wasn't really good at it as I only knew how to play the musical catchphrase from Hitchcock's "Psycho."

Aww I'm so glad it resonates with you! (Ironic choice of words too!)
I only managed to play the drums for a brief time when I was in high school, but fell out of it due to home issues and moving. 
Thanks for the love on this piece!

I love how in my head cannon he plays the cello and in yours he plays piano
I've been considering having him know how to play multiple instruments lately, since again he's been around for so long and is very smart :">
UFF his chest looks delicious, just wanna bite into that thing
Excellent!!

Oh dude believe me, I think I can play NUMEROUS instruments! As old a she is, he'd need some time to kill! The three instruments I can see him playing most are the piano, violin and your mentioned cello~ And maybe the harp once in a while...because I am garbage.
THANK YOU~ X3

I love it. The old fotograph effect makes it feel really personal and nostalgic. His expression is right on spot and his hair looks great (seriously, how did you draw it?? give me tips??).

Eee thank you!! It was so fun experimenting with the texturing and the coloring.
(lol oddly, Pitch's hair is the only kind of hair I find easy to draw - as long as its from the side. I just answered your note~)

Pitch would be the perfect choice to play the piano.

It reminds me of Kingdom Hearts flashbacks. You just put a ghost to the letter of Sorrows.
