Okay! Time for another original!!!

When I first started drawing this... which was the end of August I believe... I wanted to make this guy into a stone gargoyle... but as you can see... that didn't happen. ^^ There was already too much grey in the picture already and I didn't think it needed anymore... so he has skin now. ^^

As for his wings... I was trying to show him changing back after turning into stone for the day. Kind of like in that cartoon Gargoyles. ^^ I thought of doing bat like wings, like the ones in that show... but it just didn't look right on him... I thought the feathery type of wing might be best... ^^

The background took forever... Originally I was planning on doing light colors... but the fire around him turned out so bold that i thought it might not look right... Then my sister came up with the suggestion of doing a yellow background. ^^ *bows* Thanks sis!!!!

"The castle where his kind used to dwell. Their culture flourished and their numbers were infinate... but as the years passed by their clan's strength weakened like the crumbling castle walls... Until only one was left. Left with the heavy burden of keeping his race alive."

*laughs* Or at least.... that was my idea behind the picture. ^^ I wasn't ever planning on going any further with it though... although now that I think of it... I suppose it could make for an interesting story... Hm...

EDIT: He is not Sephiroth... Just because he has long white hair doesn't make him Sephiroth... he was not Sephiroth inspired or anything... Just an original character.

Materials - 8 1/2"x11" Computer paper, mechanical pencil, black ink pen, Crayola colored pencils

Pretty nice :) Yeah, this is quite dandy, The background is cool, way back there looks like fire O.o Well yeah, the backgrouns is so cool. The position of this charactter doesn't seem to fit in a way, liek that one gargoyle show, they seem to explode whenb they wake up, make an action....just growl. So to me it doesn't seem to fir. The wings aren't so shabby :D quite like stone indeedy. Yeah this picture is quite dany indeed, very cool. Word up \m/
