Description EDIT 10 of May: I wasn't entirely content with the shadows, so I've edited them and made them look a bit darker and sinister. Wut? Darkened them with pencils and with some help of CS5. Now I'm satisfied and won't touch this picture ever further.

I admit, I took the title from russian-english dictionary! Intertwine, lol whut?

*innocent whistling* What, you expected someone else? Naughty you. Hit download to see the full 2175x2834 resolution.

So I *did* printed out a ref image, to actually draw this. And you know how much ink did it take? Let's just say a LOT. I fished out a lonely charcoal piece and started drawing. It took me... almost 4 days at very least. And I know I need to study, but a girl has her urges right?

Hey, look! I 'designed' Odesseiron house insignia! Sort of. And, yes, I did design his cloak embroidery all by myself. No references. Shakezzz... See the date in the corner? This is after ToB, of course, ruining his original B's ending. Cause I feel like it!

Having drawn Dekaras and Elvie, I thought, but what about the main pancake of the family? And I haven't drawn Eddie in a cowl for a loooong time. One led to another and came to this. Hope you will enjoy.

Charcoal and mechanical pencils 2H-8B

Edwin is from Baldur's Gate, which belongs to Bioware (I wuv u!)

You do cloth phenomenally! The runes are beautiful!

He looks youngish, but I like it XD

Oooh, yeah. I've created this artwork waaaaay back, before I pegged his age closer to mid-thirties for both canon and my headcanon-ish story. Glad you liked it, though!Β

Clearly we must now use this image to represent him whenever we are writing about his younger years

Twenty/twenty-five-ish? That's a grand idea! Kinda reminds me of all the backstory that I had created for his earlier, Thay-filled days, hehe. Complete with a snarky, hair-raising mentor.Β

Wow! I must admit I haven't played Baldur's Gate *hides in the bushes* but Edwin looks really awesome. Especially his cloak and all those embroideries.

"the main pancake" lol!! xD wow, this is just gorgeous! kind of inevitable, given the subject matter of course hehe--but all that embroidery is just amazing, too. You really have such an eye for designs, and the hand-drawn quality gives the whole thing such a lovely aesthetic. It's quite obvious you've spent a lot of time on it and OH IT'S JUST BEAUTIFUL, wonderful work! <3

I will (I think) study design after all (when I will finish school), hehe. Well, designing embroidery is one of my favorite parts in drawing with pencils and charcoal. Well... awwww... a big thank you from me!

Looooove the shading and style here! My favorite part, though, is how the edges of the paper look worn and scratched up a bit, as if it's a photo that's seen better days.
