Victorian gentleman art

[tsuru_san]

My university literary magazine's deadline was yesterday so I submitted a little art titled:


More like Victorian youth, haha, but I like him. He's totally period except for the hair (and possible the boots), lol. Even if this doesn't make it into the aegis magazine, I'm still considering it a smashing success. The art nouveau styling looks neat, and I really like how nicely the marker colors turned out (I'm trying to practice more with markers). It's a pretty finished piece. (Free internet cookies to anyone who can guess the building who's silhouette makes up the top of the pic.)


Oh, and for those of you who liked my characters Wilhelm and the General (from The Frozen General and The Broken Sergeant), you'll be pleased to know that the freakin' cold New Hampshire weather has inspired me to write more about my favorite Eastern front officers. *grin*

Are Maliel and Vaevra new characters? I don't recall seeing them before. Also, what's the story behind Vaevra's, um, spawning? I imagine that demons do not make for good parental figures.

Cover image came from the first page of a Google image search, with some censoring/text in MS Paint. Super high-tech production! Hopefully it's good for motivation. November's almost heeeeere!

Yes, they are new characters. I came up with them over the summer, but didn't have time to do much other than write some character descriptions and plot points. Haha, Vaevra's mother is the Archdemon Leviathan (she and Asmodeus have a thing that sometimes involves teh sex). Vaevra was raised mostly in the City of Dis. He likes his mom well enough, but he and Asmodeus don't get on too well. Now they don't speak at all since Vaevra started working for the Third Circle which Belial helps run (she and Asmodeus also have a thing that involves them hating and trying to kill each other).

Vaevra doesn't really give a damn about Hell though. He works on Earth and pretty much does his own thing and looks out for number 1. Vaevra's kind of a loner who tends to prefer his own company; however, he does eventually find a friend and equal in Maliel.

I couldn't tell. XD You should people you labored over it for hours in photoshop, haha. Less than 3 dayssssssss!
