A Knight In Shining Amore WIP

My boyfriend has almost always been the only thing on my mind but more so now than ever before. He's really the only thing I can think about lately. So here we have more Storm+Edge art with a Conditions title.


LINES.

COLORS.
For this I tried experimenting with a painting style similar to Taoren's paint-on-the-same-layer-as-your-lines style though I didn't realize until I was done I made the lines too thin and it really didn't work. Fortunately I knew I'd probably mess it up so I made a second line layer on top of the first before I started painting. Good thing I did. When I switched the topmost line layer off I had brushed most of the facial details away haha. This is only 600x1005 px so I guess I can't be surprised everything kind of blended together at such a small size but whatever. I covered my tracks that time.

BACKGROUND.
I dunno why I've been using teal so much lately, it's just a nice tranquil color. It's probably my favorite color right now.

TEXTURE AND LIGHT.
Once again I've used the whispy light and such in this. I'm not really sure. The first time I did it in the original Illuminati I was just doing it because it looked cool, now I think I'm doing it to symbolize our hearts/spirits/etc, not really sure but whatever I do it for it looks cool.

TEXT
I decided to make matching badges out of this for us to wear to whatever our first con together is. Obviously as is it's just one badge but it'll be cut in half once I print it and then you put them together to make the complete picture. Cute I guess or whatever. For those of you wondering the font I used is Aristotle Punk, you can get it for free from dafont.com.

For my boyfriend, as is everything I do.
