Description ~~~

I will be the death of you...

Breath, by Breaking Benjamin

~~~

This is Colm from Golden. He's one of the fae. And now you see why the book is so named.

The water represents something very important in the story. Most of the water is poisoned, and can eat away at the skin. Clean water is extremely valuable. So, I covered Colm in water. And you'll have to read the book to find out why.

More in the series:

Deception
Desire

Soon to come in the series will be: Deliverance.

~~~

tools: charcoal, pastels, and q-tips
references: a compilation of several images (a male model named Caleb Lane, a couple pics of Charlie Hunnam, and my imagination)

That is awesome! That is realy cool to see the mixed media used perfectly together. I still have yet to get the ambition to sit down and color any of mine. But hunny This picture is a true example of true talent. Keep it up and I will be watching for more to come!

Nice. The hair kind of looks like it's on a different plane than the rest of him but it's still striking.

How are you thinking of incorporating these fine drawings into your novel in the finished version?

ThePix In reply to DeclaredBannered [2008-03-03 05:18:10 +0000 UTC]

Hey, DB! Yah, the hair was sort of a worry for me. It's really Golden. lol

And I have no idea how these--or if they--will factor into the book idea. I just knew I had to draw them. It was fun, though. And it made me feel closer to the characters a little. I've got one more to do and then I really need to get plugging faster on the ms.
