Description From Robin McKinley's book Sunshine (not your average vampire story).

Con carries Sunshine to safety while relying on her magic to protect him from the sun. Yup, that's a magical parasol. Sunshine was supposed to be Con's lunch, but as you can see, he's on a serious diet. I'm guessing it's not Atkins.

Oooooooooohhhh I love this! I've just finished reading sunshine and I adored it! This is just how I imagined the part where he carries her while she protects him from the sun.

Love this! The literal parasol you gave Sunshine tickled my funny bone a bit, but you know my favorite part? That you didn't try to make Constantine pretty. The book's pretty clear that he's basically-- how is it put? -- at a nadir of ugliness, especially after being starved and exposed to sunlight for ages and ages. I feel like this picture could be an actual scene out of the book-- thanks for not romanticizing it.

PERFECT. I keep seeing romanticized paranormal-romance-vampire versions of Con, and this is the first I've found where he appears as described in the book itself. Nice with the "sun parasol" gag, too, heheh.

Alright your comment was just so darn funny i had to comment. I loved the book, and Kim Harrison's, and also Kelly (?) Armstrong's. Seeing more fanart would be awesome!

NicoPony In reply to BlindHuntress [2006-07-03 18:34:12 +0000 UTC]

Harrison and Armstrong are also two of my favorites. I'm looking forward to Harrison's next book, which I think came out last month. I wasn't thrilled with Armstrong's last one...but I don't think any of them were as good at Bitten.

Woot! First time I have seen fan art for this book. I loved it, and I love how you drew the chars ... Umm.. just a suggestion (nothing pertaining to your lovely art work) Read the Dead Witch walking series by Kim Harrison and do some fan art... You could definitely do the series justice... erm... just a suggestion <3 (hope that doesn't sound rude >.<

I am currently reading Harrison's newest novel, Every Which Way But Dead. During class, I had done about a dozen sketches of Jenks out of sheer boredom.

If you like Sunshine and Con, here's another fanart I like from a great artist:
