Every Rose Has Its Thorn

Such... a ... fking... pain in the ass!!! D8<

Tried painting again. I'm getting better at it, but I'll stick with meh new more cel-shading style. Only reason I went back to it for this picture was because I wanted it to be messy. c:

You probably can't really tell, but my computer wonked out on me sometime and suddenly all the colors weren't showing up. It looked more web condensed and cruddy. I spent an hour or two trying to fix it, but in the end just gave up. And then PS unexpectedly quit ( it always happens when I do blood ) so I had to do the BG all over again. ( It looked better before. )


Ahem. So. Arias again, of course. ( Who the hell did you expect? Santa Clause? 8D ) There originally was a bit of red glow where his eye is supposed to be, but it looked kinda scary so I took it off. I sorta gave up on his wings after awhile.

W00 more blood!! xD It's not his own, I'll tell you that.

What else... Oh. Neh, neh, neh? Locket Arias hath got!! 83 I'll probably draw the inside of it soon. SHIT! SADNESS!!! *cries*

As for the title, it's the title from a song. I was listening to 'Every Rose Has Its Thorn' by a band called Poison and I really got attached to this part.
