Description

Holy crap, that previous is tiny!!! FULL VIEW PLEASE!

Well, I got distracted from Revolt when I got a great idea (from an old unfinished pic of mine)! It's related to another of my many stories named shi.no.yume.

The two girls in the image are the same person: Yuki Ryugawa. She has a sort of personality disorder, which causes her to be mentally unstable. Her right eye is blind (and bears a scar, which explains why she covers it with her hair).

The one on the right is the real Yuki; the one on the left is her darker side. (They don't really have wings. It was just a way of separating them into the angel and the demon.) They are not two people!!! Yeah, I won't elaborate too much on her case.

More technical stuff... I tried out a new CGing technique for this pic. Other than the usual cel-shading, I did some color blending to make it look more funky. Although, I do very much hate how dark Yuki's wings came out. I might rework them when I have time.

I wanted to add some interesting background elements, but I couldn't think of anything interesting, so that too I might add in the future.

Approximate time: 3 days
Medium: mechanical pencil 0.5 (with hard lead); ink pens (Berol DART II, uni-ball VISION micro, PILOT Hi-Tecpoint V5 Extra Fine), Photoshop 5.0
Number of files: 3 (one for Yuki, another for dark Yuki, and a last for the final version)
Layers: around 50
Music: Gackt - Metamorphoze; Witch Hunter Robin - Silence

Enjoy!
