Description O<; Gosh, he turned out looking so creepy I can barely look him in the eye, even though he's just a drawing!

Eheh...this is part 3 of a 6-part commission by ~gakusangi showing Beyond Birthday in various outfits. So far he's been in his classic L-ish attire, full masquerade ball finery complete with cloak and mask, and now this very strappy, wrinkly, fun-to-draw straitjacket.

Hope you like him, gaku-kun...hopefully he doesn't look SO disturbing that it's overkill. Since it shows no blood or sex, I figured even though it's kind of creepy, it doesn't warrant a "mature" rating, either.

Part 2: Classic B

Part 4: Father B

This series of B commissions are illustrations for ~gakusangi 's Alternate Universe fantasy Death Note fanfic series, "Sol of Luna". To see book one, "Sol of Luna: Near and Far" (which is very well-done--I highly recommend it!), click here .

Drawn with 0.3mm mechanical pencil, inked with Pentel 0.5mm EnerGel liquid gel pen.

Beyond Birthday (aka B) is from the Death Note novel "Another Note: The Los Angeles BB Murder Cases", and belongs to the author, NISIOISIN.

This is so fascinating and emotional. I have been studying straitjacket lately so this really interests me. Great job!

Yeah, sometimes art that makes people squirm a little is the best because it calls up a strong reaction. XD

I researched various kinds of straitjackets for drawing this picture (as well as making a cosplay straitjacket for my boyfriend, who cosplayed as BB), and they're really very interesting!

Straitjackets don't have buckles in the front. They're in the back. I like it.

Threshie In reply to EsmeraldaSmith [2011-09-30 02:59:42 +0000 UTC]

XD I drew it based on about a dozen reference pictures. Most of them were fashion straitjackets and costume straitjackets, though. I figure if the arms are tied behind the person, put buckles in front out of reach, and if the arms are in front put the buckles behind out or reach. Anyway, glad you like the pic. It kinda creeps me out. >o;

Lol. XD I can't looking him in the eye either. and I'm a BB fangirl. .___.""" And the straight jacket looked like it'd be fun to draw. XD

XD; Yeah, I may have overdone the "psycho" in this one a tad...LOL. The straitjacket was great fun. I love drawing wrinkly clothing, especially when combined with a bendy pose.

BB IS scary. Most pictures don't bother me. (Of course I'm up at 3 in the morning after a nightmare about B so I guess anything can scare me right now.)

Threshie In reply to theanimefans [2009-11-17 21:48:32 +0000 UTC]

XD; LOL--yes, it's not a good idea to view pics of B after having nightmares about him! Or if you do, go look at some cute chibis of him for a breather.

Your a really good artist. I'm just now learning how to draw folds in clothes and I can only do that with baggy capes/dresses. o.O

Threshie In reply to theanimefans [2009-11-21 18:41:53 +0000 UTC]

All I can say is to look at photos and real folds for reference, pay attention to the way shadows fall on them, and practice a lot with no fear of messing up!

Superb! You did it perfectly, and the addition of his smeared makeup, and unkempt hair was an amazing touch

This is exactly how I pictured the scene ^_^

Threshie In reply to gakusangi [2009-11-16 05:44:26 +0000 UTC]

Er....I guess since I made him a bit TOO creepy to the point where I'm not very fond of his face in this pic, I was worried others would think the same? LOL; I'm happy to hear that you are happy with it! Man, the straps and wrinkles and wild hair were so much fun...

gakusangi In reply to Threshie [2009-11-16 05:49:27 +0000 UTC]

You did perfectly with the jacket, now it's not just 'any' straight jacket...it's 'B's' straight jacket 8D and that's what I was going for ^_^

The face looks good, he's got that wild look to his eyes, and his ginning around the gag is just so 'in-character' XD

Threshie In reply to gakusangi [2009-11-16 06:24:33 +0000 UTC]

It had to be longer than a usual one, or he wouldn't have been decent. But seriously, it'd take that many straps to hold such a crazy guy down, LOL. I'm working on my boyfriend's B cosplay with him to do a version of B with a straight-jacket.
