Description
hey now don't make a soundsay have you heard the news today?
one flag was taken down
to raise another in it's place
a heavy cross you bear
a stubborn heart remains unchanged
no home, no life, no love
no stranger singing in your name
maybe the season
the colors change in the valley skies
dear God i've sealed my fate
running through hell
heaven can wait
long road to ruin
there in your eyes
under the cold streetlights
no tomorrow
no dead-end in sight
Long Road to Ruin by Foo Fighters

i love this song... and this is by far the longest time i took to draw this... mainly 'cause i actually took time to draw the background, but rachael took most of the space and i kinda erased most of it... well, about the drawing... this is, of course, part of my story... this particular "scene" is from the first installment... not much of a story behind this except that it is the beginning of the adventure... at first, the story starts with rachael, then later revels arkham's past... eventually the two meet and begin their journey... determined, arkham looks for his long lost sister and rachael seeks answers why she was abandoned...

thanks! i'm still having trouble drawing in different angles, but i think this one turned out great! heh, this drawing's actually inspired by the song... sometimes when i'm drawing, i like listen to music... sometimes, i'm motivated by the song and just draw a picture to go with it... but that's me... again, thanks!

so, did you already learn english before moving there or did you pick it up there? curious... hmm... well, why not move with your grandparents in hawaii? w-wait... you have a job? and you're in high school? lucky... i still can't find one... sniff...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
omg.. hey uber sorry for the late reply..
waht no,.. i refered to my parents' jobs..
I learned english as i went to school .. :3
and yes, i'm already a senior though, still in 10th Grade.
no worries, i dont have a job either..
aand my grandfather was a WWII veteran.. so he was granted to live there.
And blame Georgre Bush.. for not signing the deed for the f3 categories.. (thats like a paper that allows a veteran's family (my mom and me) to live in america with my grandfather..)

ha... uber... i love that word... ah... so you learned english at school... duh! makes sense... wait, what? you are a senior, but you're in the tenth grade? is that how schools there are? hmm... shame you can live with your grandparents... goddamn bush... well, maybe one day, eh? heh, nice to know you're a jobless loser like me... uhh, not in a bad way though!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
uh.. no, not all schools here are like that..
The British/American schools have levels until grade 12..
but in my school its just until the 10th grade.. yeah, so all the pressure's on me since i'll have to be goin to a university next year.. or maybe grade 12 if i transfer to another school..
I dont really know yet.. I plan to study college in the uae though.. I want to. because i'm used to being here.. rather than in the states..
heck with bush.. did you know that he used the wwII veteran's fund (the funds that's used to provide the needs of old WWII soldiers) to be used in the war in Iraq?
thats why my mom's american visa was delayed.. i meant UUUBER delayed .. delayed more than 5 years.. -sigh-..

sigh... can't wait til bush gets the boot from office... this country has gone to HELL with him... sigh (again)... so, what do you plan on majoring in? anything that has to do with art or something else?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh may i ask which one do you favor more for presidency Mccain or Obama?..
art? i think so.. its either architecture or graphic design..
i'm trying to pick a job/course that even its for about 17 hours of work or study i wouldnt loose enthusiasm doing it..
how bout you?
