Description "You know, you and I... we really aren't that different..." -Storm


OMFG -hand decides to fall off and run away-
BEFORE YOU READ ON YOU MUST KNOW THIS IS MY FIRST TIME EVER ATTEMPTING TO DRAW A REALISTIC PICTURE USING ONLY MY TABLET AND PHOTOSHOP 7.0 OMFG -dies repeatedly-
ok, so, this started out as a tiny little doodle of Storm (the one on the right), but, as you can see, it evolved a little bit o.o;; into one huge gigantic painting that I used to its fullest to practice my realism @__@;; -dies-

so where did this actually come from? well that's a funny question xD
I've been roleplaying my Character Storm a lot with 's character Rae. I'm addicted to those two @_@;; really, they're just fuggin hilarious together. Because they're always doing one of three things:
Trying to bug the hell out of one another
Arguing
Or getting into some kind of trouble
Storm also tries her hardest not to kill him for some reason too. Why? We just haven't figured that one out yet ;o


see, where the inspiration from this picture came from.. well, it was just because they are really polar opposites when you think about it... but then again,.. they're so strikingly similiar @__e;; makes my head hurt..

See, personality-wise and past/history-wise, they're so similiar you'd think they were related, but appearance-wise and likes/dislikes-wise, they're as far from the other as you can possibly imagine xD
SOooooo yeah,.. onto the premise behind this! -marches-

llamalove and I have come to the conclusion that:
Raen is a demon of chaos, and Storm is an Angel of Death.
lovely. well, when put together, I guess that spells out little chance of survival if you happen to brush either the wrong way o__o comforting isn't it?
AAAAAAAAAnd that's pretty much it really o.o
OH!!! DETAIL SHOTS!! @___t
[link] - Raen's eye. its SO beautiful but you can't really see it behind his hair
[link] - closeup on the lips. I really did a LOT of work on those lips and the details died in the downsize

PLEASE ALSO NOTE THAT RAE'S LEFT EYE IS GOLD WHILE HIS RIGHT EYE IS BLUE. I just flipped it because Storm's eyes are both blue and the whole point of the picture was to depict their differences. So, I his eye gold for this picture only >< -will get it right in the next one-

Good heavens, this is beautiful. Your CG work is utterly amazing. I especially appreciate the detail on the hair and the texture on the fuzz. You have a real talent here. The picture itself is really cool; you are obviously very talented in photoshop. Very impressive.

even though I've seen this picture nearly every step of the way.. it's still so awesome finished! XD
not only did you capture one of the hardest views (the front of the face) but you managed to combine two seperate people (of different genders even >D) into a comparison picture that portrays each perfectly
-hehe I See Storm's blue eyebrow!-
That fur came out great and the lips, and just everything

-tacklelatchducttapeclingsnugdie-
I'ma have to draw you something oober smexay for your bday which I missed in an attempt to challenge this pierce of art D

I don't think I'll fav it though..
