Description This is something I do very rarely - something I should do more often. Which is to say, draw something for the story it tells rather than just for the sake of drawing a character.

Oh! Uh, this is my "real" fanart for Bittersweet Candy Bowl, [link] an awesome webcomic. I realize it's a bit messy, but I liked the effect it created so there.

I know what you're saying. "WHY ARE ALL YOUR FANARTS FOR THIS COMIC ABOUT SAD FACES". The answer is that until the plot moves along I refuuuuuse to unsadface the characters. It'd be WRONG. D:

<<; I kinda stayed up for two nights and read from chapter one to sixty three. xD

Now I'm trying to get good pictures of them for something I was doing. I was filling in that meme thing on Taeshi's profile. It's gonna suck so bad because I suck at art though xD

Indeed. I just found the site though and read through all of it. I'm still simply in awe over BCB.

3 words...

You...

Love the way you make that cloudy effect and sad moment in there... poor Lucy. If only she was less stubborn they might be able to stay together for a looooooooooooooooong time...
maybe...

CROT ALMIGHTY! THAT IS AMAZING! I love it, your use of colour is AMAZING! I LOVE IT! The softness (as you put it "messiness") gives it a good feel, I LOVE IT! I really, can't put how I feel about it into any other words.

Truely an emotional time.
I like the little heart cloud, but Taeshi already mentioned that tibit.
Sometimes I just wanna hug her, but she'll likely kick me.

MOOMANiBE In reply to VedtheFlameDevil [2010-05-08 00:02:24 +0000 UTC]

XD. I'm not normally one for drawing saaaaaaaaaad stuff but that scene a few chapters back made a big impression on me. Much as seeing Paulo get into trouble is funny, I'm dying over here waiting for the story to get back to Lucy and Mike. XDD

Lucy can be so ridiculously vulnerable on those rare occasions... for five seconds before she beats people down. Poor Mike.

Very impressive mate, never seen you capture emotion so well before. Going to love to see show it in future.

.. Dawwww

DAAAAAAAWWWWWWW ;___________;

I absolutely LOVE this. Poor little lucy and your old tsundere-ruining habits making you and Maishul not get aloooong~

I love how one of the bubbles of thought is a heart, and squeeee it's so fuzzy! I like that effect, it's all cloudy and nice. Her thoughts are lighting up the room!!

Dawwwwwthankyou ;____________; This is so ace and I know you told me you were drawing another page but i didn't expect it so soon!!!! squeee~~~~

MOOMANiBE In reply to taeshilh [2010-05-07 08:36:45 +0000 UTC]

I didn't expect it so soon either! XDD. I honestly was just futzing around with brushes in photoshop and this ended up appearing. I feel like it kinda came naturally!

And you noticed it was a heart! I didn't think people would notice! ! Hahaha you're officially the best person ever to do fanart for. It's the greatest feeling ever when someone likes what I did, and the fact that you notice all the little bits like the thought lighting up the room makes it so worth the time spent! Wheee I'm in such a good mood ^_____^.

Squeee ;___; Well I always try to be observant, since a lot of time and care tends to be put for the fanarts I get. It's the least I could do to kind of engulf it in and try to see what the artist was trying to do! So yeah ;.;!!

MOOMANiBE In reply to taeshilh [2010-05-07 10:07:21 +0000 UTC]

^^ Well, I reaaaaaally appreciate it. I'm still kinda coming down from the "wauuugh drawing a lot" high right now but I could thank you into eternity for your comic and being such a great fanart target. Spending a day or two drawing fun little things for you is nowhere near repayment for the inspiration I've gotten out of this.

Okay I swear I'll stop now I just love it so much @________________@

The comic seems to be in a conflictual sink hole, with no signs of stopping in the current chapter. Oh Paulo...

Makes me wonder when the next uplift will happen...and HOW it will happen.

MOOMANiBE In reply to RazgrizBlaze [2010-05-07 06:55:09 +0000 UTC]

True as that may be I hold out eternal hope. Besides, I think there's a lot of hints that this storyline is just as much about LUCY and Paulo as it is about Paulo and Every Girl He Is Trying To Go Out With. Rebound drama ahoooy XD

RazgrizBlaze In reply to MOOMANiBE [2010-05-07 06:59:12 +0000 UTC]

Perhaps...there is the chance that he'll snap out of it right on the brink line. If he does, then the rise will occur at that moment. If he doesn't...well...I wonder how much more this sinkhole can dig itself.

I love the effect you've used here. It isn't sketchy or unrefined at all, it just has this warm fuzzy feeling to it that gives it this illustration-y feel. The messy lines and contours make it feel less 'cut and copy' than it otherwise would.

Compared to a lot of your other works, it's nice to see some 'human made' images.

Pixelnator [2010-05-07 00:29:54 +0000 UTC]

Man, I really hope Lucy and Mike sort things out...

That being said, I agree with the effect. It kinda reminds me of cel-shading.

Unfortunately they are even worse and Lucy is going to go insane if she hasn't already D:
