I don't know if this was a suicide or an accident or a punishment, though it would make sense if it was a suicide. The wrists were slit after I drew the demons/devils, though. It just made me think of "if you commit suicide, you'll go to hell because you threw away God's greatest gift; the gift of life" (I'm not a christian, but I still think "Throwing away God's greatest gift" sounds kind of.. I dunno, interesting?)

And why does it always feel so satisfying to draw blood? *sigh*

you used water color? if thats what it is (which im almost positive) i love how you used it in this one, totally compliments the mood your trying to create

*Harkill Dec 28, 2012 Student General Artist

Thanks!!! And actually it's not watercolor, believe it or not! It's Winsor and Newton's ink (here's a pic I found on google: [link] ) and quink: [link] That reacts very nice with water, you can get a lot of different shades! And I thiiink I used color pencils for the pants.. and MAYBE some watercolor for the skin, but it might be red ink too o_o *too detailed answer*

But again, thanks!!

very cool! do those inks cost very much? and i love watercolor pencils <3 (i actually got some for xmas!) could you aslo maybe tell me where i can buy the inks? id like to try them :3

*Harkill Dec 28, 2012 Student General Artist

Where I go to uni, they cost around 3-4 pounds, but you're not in the UK, sooo that's not exactly relevant to you, haha, but I found this page when doing a quick search on google: [link] where it says you save 20% by buying from them. I really like the inks because of the transparency and the strong colors. If you're interested in trying out new media, I recommend ink. But working with quink can also be very interesting. You can do a lot with it!

I don't know what kind of shops you have where you are, but if there's any art shops near, you can also go check there and ask if they have any inks
