A LiveJournal thingy is going on, pairing up artists with writers (I think it's done now, so ll us artists and writers are getting on with our missions) - I got paired up with Colouredlights (
LINK) and had a choice of two of her stories to illustrate. I chose 'And The Water Runs Red' - a H/D slash/death fic that really got me inspired. It's a wonderful fic - go and read it: ===>

Anyway - about the image!
This is obviously Draco (though I'm annoyed I drew him slightly too young.. meh) he's in the psyche ward of St Mungos in Wizarding London. And obviously, he's self harming, but he's doing it because he has nothing to write with, and he needs to get his story out.
I drew this ENTIRE thing in PSCS! I'm so happy with my tablet ^^ I used three layers - one for the line art, one for the colours and one for the blood - and am actually really happy with how it turned out.
Tools: PSCS and X Pen tablet - no reference

lovely! ..in a blood-thirsty way, that is.
the only thing that seems off is his hair. with the tools you have, you could've gone for a more 'realistic' fringe, then the straight line he has there. i'd love it if you tried hair with strands and everything in a future picture, it'd go well with the shading technique you have now. ^^

I love it, I like Harry and Draco slash,. but this is it with a morbid part, and...well this is just great! Its more lifelike than them just being together!
