Welcome to the Panic Room

Theory of a Deadman - Panic Room

We’re running out of air, ain't seen the light of the day
I’m living life scared so I hide myself away
Chaos all around, be quite just be calm
I'm better off alone, like I have been all along
I don't know why but I’m trapped inside

Welcome to the panic room
It's my dark place
Lock myself away from you and I can't escape
When you got nothing to lose, paranoia sets in
And no matter what you do
I’m never gonna let you in
Panic, panic
Welcome to the panic room
Character, Strix, belongs to me. No references were used.

Pickle obviously cannot draw anything that involves chains or dripping crap. Oh well! Looked neater in my mind than it does here, but isn't that true with everything?

Finally made myself a full-body reference of my dear Strix. It's about time!

Well, I don't have much more commentary for this. I mean, I had fun doing it, it was quite a challenge, yaddy-yada... nothing too interesting there. I guess I can mention that this was made to be a metaphor of Strix's and Changelix's relationship together. Changelix's dominant, overpowering personality controlling almost everything Strix does... So that's where the chains and shackles come from! The green goo is just to represent the Changeling-ness that binds the two of them.
Okay, so I'm not the best at metaphorical crap. >.< English has never been my strongest subject, anyway, haha!

Oh, add about forty minutes to the timer. I posted the sketch to show it to a friend, and then accidentally clicked the 'color me in' button rather than the edit one, and it took my about forty minutes just to sketch the lineart for Strix. I deleted that sketch, by the way.

Any critiques and comments are greatly appreciated c: Trust me, I already see plenty of things that are wrong with this, so no need to point out anything super-obvious XD Thanks for taking the time to look at my art and read this silly message! I'm grateful for your time :3 Have a wonderful day/evening, and happy Friday!
