new work again and yep, again it's really dark !

i bought first volume of death note from animecon hold in helsinki. it was my first time in any anime event. anyway, since so many of my friends have praised death note that it's good but if you lose volume it's hard to find out all the things. well i thought to try it and bought it. the manga was quite different from mangas i usually read and this is actually kind of interesting because of it.
and after reading the manga i got idea to draw a drawing from it, which looks quite weird ^_^'

i wanted to draw ryuk and light in it. i placed ryok for the background because of the why he left the note book and light picked it up, so he is kind of shadow behind light's back. well that is the idea i got from the manga, though ryuk isn't bad person (if he can be called as person since he is shinigami).
it's very funny because at first i wouldn't dare to read death note since i thought ryuk was so frightening *blush* and here i have drawed him and readed the manga after all XD
that red thing he is holding is supposed to be apple though it doesn't look like one very much. apple is coloured with copic markers.
the other character is supposed to be light yagami (not sure is he the same character as raito). i failed at drawing him quite well ! his hair part is too long and his body is weird looking too. and mostly because i still can't draw full bodies to the drawings well...but yes, i'm practising to get better. from the notebook he is holding (at least supposed to hold) i forgot the text to write on the cover >__< lets just pretend it's on the other side so you can't see it !

oki, the whole work except the apple is made with bottled ink. i think i'm geting better at inking but not sure what you think, hehe.

hope you like it though it's really different from my usual drawings ~ next time will draw coloured drawing and bright one, promise ! comments are welcome as always and favourites too :D

    Nice inking job! Especially on Ryuk! You captured his creepy face perfectly... *shudders* Light (=Raito) looks a little anemic and his hair seems a little high on top, but you did a good job on his outfit. Good job on something new... looks very dramatic! Keep up the good work! :D

    woooooaah zefie O_O that ryuk is AWESOME . I love the shadows and u did a wonderful job on the details .
    raito's proportion needs more work , but it's not that bad . ur drawing is really admirable : D <3 the composition with ryuk covering the whole background makes the drawing complete and the perfect balance of black and white xD

    really lovely drawing u've done ^_^ +fav

    Oh wowies, Ryuk just looks totally awesome! Creepy, very nicely represented here! Wowies, looks really awesome! The red apple looks really good too! Good contrast between Raito and the dark Ryuk. Kind of agree that Raito's proportion needs work but overall it's awesome!

    waiwai zefie-chan ~ I'm reaaally impressed at how u made the shadows on ryuk's face! XD its amazing. u did a really fantastic job . I can't draw ryuk at all , so I'm really impressed :D . don't worry about the apple, it looks like an apple to me , and ryuk simply must have an apple XD or it wouldn't be him ~
    love it~ light's body may still need a lil work and the creases on his clothes, but that's okay ~sorry for commenting reaally late, today I just really felt like commenting :P
