Twilight © Stephenie Meyer.
Art © me. What can I say?  Other than "I need to stop drawing boring straight on head shots and use the same shading tricks over and over again", that is... I was just trying to improve my design of Edward (that really wonky face from last time bothere me to no end) and even though I said I had a father & son piece with Carlisle in mind, I really wanted to draw him in his "snapped" state, just to see what it would look like. So this isn't from a particular moment in either book, just something I wanted to try. After seeing the illustrations from the Japanese books, I was really tempted to change his hair style, but then I realised I'd probably end up drawing something way too similar to Light from Death Note, so I stuck with what I drew last time instead. Oh and where's his shirt? I don't know! If Jacob and the boys can lose their shirts so easily, why not Edward, eh?  I want to try drawing Bella now, which will probably be tricky seeing how I don't draw girls that much at all. I've decided to read both books again (yes, I *know* I only finished less than a week ago) and this time I'm reading *much* more slowly, and taking notes too  Jeez, I'm sorry, I really need to cut down on the description...  ETA: I know Stephenie Meyer's vampires don't have fangs but I learned that some time after posting this and I'm too lazy to edit the picture... |

This is precisely what I was hoping to convey but I wasn't sure if I'd done it. There's this scene in the first book in which he nearly loses control upon meeting the main character, and we're only told why much later. The author rewrote it from his POV and posted it on her site and it's one of the best things I've ever read and that's what made me want to draw this.
(And yes, the super angsty!Jyuu one is called Loss)
I'm very interested in these books now, so I'll have to try and find them at the library. I was even at the bookstore last night, but I'm very scatter-brained, and I didn't remember to look. I haven't read a good vampire story in a few years, well since the last Anne Rice book I read, so I'm definitely due, hehe.
I can't wait till Bella!
Are you planning on doing Jasper?
Or Alice?

Better to write for yourself and have no public, than to write for the public and have no self.

I really advise *everyone* to read those books, but maybe you ought to try getting them from the library first. Just in case you don't like them, so you don't subsequently hate me for making you waste money *he he* I mean it was quite a gamble for me since a friend got them for me for Christmas after I asked her, but my hunch was thankfully right
Now I've *got* to start Sokka again. I won't post or work on anything else until he's done!! *nods nods*
