Description
The surviving children of the Lightwood family, Isabelle and Alec Lightwood, and Jace Wayland (Herondale).Characters are from Cassandra Clare's amazing books, The Mortal Instruments series.
I'm a bit nervous, I worked hard on this one, but I'm not sure I like how it turned out. Hmmm.
EDIT: I added a few shadows to Jace's face in an attempt to age him since apparently he looked "too young" to some people...
Done in Copics, india ink, and Corel Photopaint 9
Song for this piece is "Teenage Angst" by Placebo.

Beautiful! From the minute I met them, I knew that Isabelle was the one in power, and the boys were merely her bodyguards. Of course, I like Alec the best out of the three of them. He's so strong and mature, and yet he's so adorkable when he's embarrassed. A gentle giant.

That's exactly what I thought! I was wondering if Izzy was their queen or something. XD

I also was wondering if Isabelle was a vampire with how pale she was and how dramatically she chose to dress. Β I was also a little saddened by the fact that ruby pendant she wore wasn't in the shape of a, quite literal, human heart. Β But then, when she attacked the real vampire, I knew she had to be like a spy or something, and those two were her bodyguards/team mates.

Hmm that's a way I never thought about it.

And considering the kind of girl Isabelle is... she may have a hot pink and black room, but I think that having a necklace shaped like a human heart would be right up her alley.

Yeah, I really wished they had it like that, but oh well. It's not like we can change anything.

Nope. Β But it still felt like Cassandra Clare wrote the movie, and it was her world come to life, with a few minor alterations. Β It still felt like her though, unlike Twilight and its screenplay. Β I don't think Stephanie Meyer had any say as to what they put in there, or the fact that there are five instead of a solid four.

Well said. It did feel like her, as you said. I recently watched Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters, and it didn't feel like Rick, even if the movie was great. It just felt, separate.

Still, it was really good. I loved the way they put everything together. Since I haven't read the books in a long time, I got to relive the story, in the movies. I had forgotten about poor Tyson. Man, did I love Tyson.

They all look gorgeous. I can't explain just how much I love the books but it seems you have captured them just how I have imagined them let alone Cassandra herself, you've even paid attention to the fact Izzy wears her whip as bangles sometimes, honestly this is amazing, I can not wait for the films, not only because of how much I love the books but it seems the perfect people have been selected for such amazing characters I actually adore this <3 And I ask permission to feature some of your Mortal Instrument pieces in a journal

I LOVE your portrayal of Isabelle. It has just the slightest traces of punk in the style, and your image gives her that extra sense of teenager that I didn't imagine myself. I mean, yeah, we KNOW she's a teenager, but she's so tough and classy you never really think of it that way. A striking design in general! I love it!
And I really like the sense of casual community your image has, too. There's a certain way teenagers have of hanging out that you don't really see in other age groups, and you definitely caught it here.
