Description I love Massive Attack since a friend of mine (cheers, Tinribs! ) told me about the song Teardrop. He said I should check it because it's really lovely. Honestly, I thought it's something heavier (you know - massive attack *growl* ) but it's one of the most adorable songs in the world. If you haven't heard it before, you should really search for it. Simply beautiful song.

Massive Attack - Teardrop

Love, love is a verb
Love is a doing word
Fearless on my breath
Gentle impulsion
Shakes me makes me lighter
Fearless on my breath

Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath

Nine night of matter
Black flowers blossom
Fearless on my breath
Black flowers blossom
Fearless on my breath

Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath

Water is my eye
Most faithful mirror
Fearless on my breath
Teardrop on the fire of a confession
Fearless on my breath
Most faithful mirror
Fearless on my breath

Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath

You're stumbling a little
You're stumbling a little

Black flowers blossom...



The model is ~larafairie-stock . As a reference I used some brushes from ~Irmes and ~iccaroo .


Hope you like it.

I couldn't stand all those mistakes so I fixed it. Now you can enjoy the better version. As you can see I've also changed the title. I think 'Teardrop on the Fire' sounds better. (Yes, yes, this time there's even fire! ha ha)
And by the way, thanks for all these comments, nice words, critique, and favs - I never thought it might get so many. I'm really glad you like this piece. Thanks!

* Personally, I think it's 'fearless' not 'feathers' but don't hurt me if I'm wrong. Hey, I might be deaf but I’m not dumb!

Wow, this is really great!! I'm wondering, have you ever watched the TV show House, M.D.? They use "Teardrop" as the theme song.

I love the song too!

For a first-time digital painting, this came out very nicely. The color tones and the smooth brush strokes really lend themselves to the atmosphere of the piece. Nice work!

Bardzo piekna anatomia, zarowno reki, jak i twarzy. I motylek slodki. Troszke natomiast nad kwiatami bym popracowala, gdyz wydaja sie lekko zbyt.. plamiaste w porownaniu do perfekcyjnego dopracowania postaci. Ale swietna robota! ^^

obraz przecudowny.. przez moment myslalem ze to poprostu przerobione na komputerze (przy uzyciu cholernej myszki ) zdjecie. a co do tytulu.. kiedy tylko go zobaczyΕ‚em od razu wiedzialem ze bedzie dotyczyl tej piosenki . i smiem twierdzic ze podziekowania naleza sie portishead ktora zaspiewala z massive attack ten kawalek.. bo nikt inny nie wykonaΕ‚by go tak dobrze

Dzieki. Myszka (teraz juz nie taka "cholerna", bo kupilam sobie nowa ) dla mnie jest przede wszystkim swietnym narzedziem do malowania.
A co do piosenki - podziekowania naleza sie chyba nie Portishead, ale Liz Fraser z Cocteau Twins. Kobita ma wspanialy wokal.
