When Hope Fails

Postby Oofay » Fri Feb 18, 2011 12:27 pm

I'm really pleased with how this turned out. Most time was spent on the darn T-shirt. XD I'd love to hear what you think!!

Reference used:
This is a screencap that I took from the movie 'Toy Soliders'. The guy in the picture is an actor by the name of Sean Astin (y'know, Samwise Gamgee? The hobbit from the Lord of the Rings trilogy?). I purposefully made the face look different. This.

edit: I'd like to give a special thanks to everyone who's taken the time to reply and or 'like' this drawing. I appreciate it very, very much.

Thanks for the feature! <3

Sorry, I'm not taking art commissions or requests.

If you send me a PM and I don't answer it, please don't take it personally. I tend to read them with the intent of replying later...and then I forget. Bear with me, it's a horrible habit that I'm trying to break.

Wow you did such a great job on this! Really nice on the facial expression and all that work on the t-shirt payed off. I find human faces really difficult, this face is extremely well drawn. Shading is amazing! Good job ^_^

The lone wanderer. So tired, so miserable.
All but a mere shadow of an once vibrant soul.

Cursed by fate, burdened by sorrow.
Sentenced to a life of nothing but loneliness...
It looks like not everyone deserves a happy ending, after all.

Art/Character © Me
I couldn’t count on anyone to stand there behind me
And keep the dogs from dragging me off with them
While I slept you crept in and pulled the rug right out from under me
Then the rain stole away and took the parts that kept me functioning

My heart will be blacker than your eyes when I’m through with you
