STarting my ELY over AGAIN, because my teachers....well, I don't even know. I'm NOT reworking my old pieces though, I'm starting from scratch all over again. This was something I showed them as a sketch. I still like it, and I learned a lot about color and how I want to go about doing things in a quick, but well rendered way.

Not finished, but I have no time to finish it, sadly. :( Here's to figuring shit out.

Lolita and Humbert belong to the novel Lolita, by Vladimir Nabokov.

AHHHGGG LOLITA AND HUMBERT gahhhhhh <3 That book is so creepy, I never read all of it, but I read enough parts to know I should finish it. x'DDD

Ahhhggg Thissssss is a gorgeous scene. <33333 Your style is so excellent for something like this, it's intimate, but not sugary at all. She looks so cold and pretty, like the little minx she was in the book.

Awesome stuff. I love how perfect and even the window is.

I read parts of it when I was in high school but the language is SO crazy/flowery that I didn't get through much of it. I just started reading it again and it's sick sick SICK. I can't help but be drawn to Humbert and his absolute pathetic obsession with Dolores. Argh, it's so twisted.

Even if I'm not doing it for school, I might do some more illustrations of it when I'm of fucking SCHOOL! But thank you thank you!

Fantastic book, and wonderful interpretation, though maybe you should add more grey to Humbert's hair so he looks older.

Looks great.

Just make sure your lighting is coming from the same direction (Ie: her face should be more in shadow.)

It's only like you to bring a keyboard to a gun fight.

Haaaaaaaaahahaha, yeah, I was thinking of that. I was like "Damn, he looks young", but as I'm reading it I can't help but picture him being extremely attractive in a douche-bag kinda of way. The attractive man in his late thirties who barely looks over 25, and gets all the womens.

But I dunno, if I come back to it, I shall consider that!

Yep, I was thinking that, but then I went and did AH FUCK IT, it don't matter anyway. I just wanted her to glow. If I ever finish it though, I'll work out more of the shading, though it may remain unfinished till the end of time.
