Maybe I should design the outfit(s?) separately. For some reason, I'm thinking of an assassin with a flair for fashion...

Ooh that was really nice BlackButterfly. When you've thought of an outfit, put it up!! It probably would be a good idea to design some clothes seperately. I always find designing clothes separately is helpful. Also you might want to look about on clothing sights for inspiration. I hope it goes well
Well I might as well post the only painting I did that managed to get sent through (grrr) it was for my exams...
I sent myself a piece on Orestes (I saw a theatre performance of it last week & it really struck me) but it hasn't appeared...eh, well if I find it I'll dump it up.

Awesome drawing BB! Goths are so artistic. But I keep picturing black jack boots on her instead, to go with the wings.

No! I like you, Broken Pixy. We're just giving you a good-natured ribbing.

It's really up to you, and I'm not going to beg you to stay (I have a policy against begging), but you should know that I, for one, like you. And I truthfully believe that no one here particularly DISlikes you, but is merely giving you a good-natured ribbing like they do to all of the new people.
If you choose to leave, that is entirely up to you.

This drawing is the only think I've ever come close to trying art in the visual sense.
http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e2...Picture515.jpg
It's still not finished, though. There's too much space above the helmet (I want to draw a 'hawk in it  ) and you can see that the letters are still on pencil and simply blunt.
The phrase below reads Damnant quod non intelligunt. (They condemn what they don't know)

::sparkly-eyed wonder::
It's GORGEOUS! Even unfinished! (And that's the only thing you've done?? EVER?!?)
That would make an excellent patch... or a tapestry...

I like your photograph of the child, though. It's very expressive.

Oh? They work for me, but they open differently because they're smaller.
The child is my cousin, Destiny. She's demonic. I just spent Thanksgiving with her -.- That picture was actually taken last Thanksgiving.

Yeah, I can see her being a demon-child. She's adorable.

LIES. She only looks adorable, hence the title. Looks are deceiving -.- VERY deceiving.
