Artist's Comments

First of all:
This I drew for all of you who supported me no matter what happened.
Thank you SO very much. :heart: I truly love you all.



It is finally done:
Character L, also known as the detective candy addict from the manga series Death Note.



This guy got most of the votes of my poll 'What shall I draw next [...]?'
which is weird because I mainly draw game fanart (or better said: 'Square Enix' fanart) aside from the usual drawings.


---------------------------------

:star:About Death Note:star:

I don't know a whole lot about Death Note, except from reading *SilentReapers comics, and from all the other fanarts I've seen before. And the movie of course, of which I took the reference from.

I know there are characters called L, Light, Mello, Near and Kira, and a crazy big guy with the name Ryuk.

But that's it really. Shame on me ^^; I know.


---------------------------------

:star:About the drawing...:star:

The whole picture in general wasn't hard to draw, but... argh... that damn sleeve! :-x It was driving me nutty, I tell ya!!! St00pid folds!!! D:<

The hair was made up, since the reference image wasn't clear at all, so I drew it the way as I thought it would look nice without making it too fake or realistic.

As for the background...
Believe it or not, but that's entirely done with a 0.5mm HB mechanical pencil. :noes: No further comments on that.


---------------------------------


Stuff I used:
  • 4H, 2H, H mechanical pencils for the skintones

  • HB, B, 2B mech pencils for the shading

  • 4H, 2H, H, HB, B mech pencils for the clothes

  • HB for background KRGGGRRAAA :frustrated:

  • pencil eraser

  • tortillion, blending stick & tissues for blending

  • Hahnemühle Nostalgie 190 g/m² • 90 lbs sketchbook paper

    • Time spent: 2 days / approx 18 hours


    Videos of how I drew this will be up soon. :D

    I opened my eyes and looked toward the figure beside me. At first, I thought it was a mirror, but I noticed she blinked before I did. I also noticed my mouth was open in shock while hers was formed into a pleased smile.

    We both had the same mental image of Kaoru watching Gundam in his underwear. That was weird.
