Description YESH ITS DONE

Im not exstatic about the results , but i did do my best ^^ This is the entry for the group :iconElfeLiedFangroup: contest [link]

to the right is Mariko, to the left is Nyu. The Tai Chi symbol is hard to spot, but its made frm the circle of blood splattered around their faces.

EDIT: i apologize about the misrepresentation of the description of yin and yang between mariko and nyu. im stoopid. yin and yang is meaningful concept that describes "how opposites interact in a dynamic system of the universe". I think nyu and mariko fit well in the yin and yang aspect, because though they may seem so different, together they represent the concept of the show, in showing the cruelty and kindness of humans, as well as showing both the cruel and kindness in those different from us. Nyu being so innocent, mariko isnt that different, only she clings to the only thing she has been shown her whole life: the treatment the humans give her. Nyu is a new look, a clean slate at discovering the good in those around her.


i love elfen lied. ftw c:

I love watercolors. It especially makes the blood effect look real.

Man, the competition is going to be tougher than I thought... Good luck!... to both of us.

Although, you know, I think you should've made more contrasting colors against each other. It would've made the yin-yang more clear.

this is very nice, the way you represented the symbol was basic but well placed o think the blood looks thpugh the way you contrasted between the two ideals and characters is a little odd, the blue skinned nyu looks closer to Nana

about the good and evil representations only what they symbolise cannot exist without its counterpart. evil can exist without good but it cannot be called evil without the 'good' to oppose it
its the same vice versa, its not really considered a tai chi principle i tinkits the misconception associated with light and dark

i see you point
thank you for pointing it out, i admit i didnt do my research on the tai chi, i figured it was the good vs bad circle x3

reap32 In reply to kanji-and-koi [2011-06-28 05:53:37 +0000 UTC]

your welcome, it is still very good it has a slight dark mirror concept to it(mirrors a person with their polar opposite)

normally i dont do research either so its okay i would have probably done the same concept

btw nice icon reminds me of a games master article
