Persephone und Vlad

Description

Aaaand... another couple drawing. Who would have thought? :D

Both halfelves (and Vlad additionally a vampire), these two have been married for more than over decades and somehow still love each other.
Farina (or Persephone, how she is usually called) is usually calm and down-to-earth. She can get quite hot-tempered, though, usually when someone presses her about her childhood and family. She doesn't give much for material wealth or looks - she tends to downplay her beauty and the necklace is the only piece of jewelry she ever (and always) wears.
Vlad on the other hand is soft-hearted, kind, and would lay the world to Persephone's feet. He is a pacifist and accordingly doesn't enjoy being a vampire very much, but doesn't spend much time angsting about it either.
So, that does sound a bit too perfect, right?
Well, then here is one thing:
Persephone was always told, that her father was the cruel right hand of a tyrant king and died shortly after her birth. The former is true. The latter isn't, and Vlad does not only know - he was the one who (in a misguided attempt to show kindness) saved her father's life and turned him into a vampire. Let's just say Persy will not be amused when she finds out he's been hiding it from her all those years.
But I will be for sure. :P

Vlad is :iconstarscreamnemesis:'s OC, Persephone is mine.
They're from our original RPG.

EDIT:
I adjusted Persy's lips a bit. They didn't look quite right. ^^'
(Thanks again, darling, for pointing it out to me! :heart:)

Hello, I am commenting on behalf of :iconprojectcomment: 's tag game and my word is "connection".  I chose this particular drawing because of the obvious connection between the two characters pictured.

I would like to start out with the aspects of your drawing that I like the most. That would be the characters themselves.  The way you have drawn them clearly shows their love for each other.  You have done a terrific job of showing the intimacy they share for each other.  The way Vlad is looking at Persephone says it all.  Great job.

As far as the technical aspects of the drawing you did a great job with the composition of the drawing, keeping the two lovers dead center, and not distracting the viewer with much else.  The background is simple but gives us some indication that they are somewhere, most likely a bedroom.  The shading is good and the hair is magnificent.

There really isn't much that I could suggest that would improve upon the drawing.  I did notice  in viewing some of your other work that you tend to draw the collarbone in fully.  I'm guessing that that is a style choice.  Just so you are aware from the viewers point of view it gives the appearance of another layer of clothing.  Maybe you would consider foreshortening your line work coming off the shoulders in towards the chest.  This would give the impression of a collarbone and I think aesthetically be more appealing.

Overall though you draw very emotional pieces and I very impressed with your story telling abilities.  Keep up the wonderful work.

Tag you are it!!!  You will  be tagging :iconiduna-haya: , and your word is "hat".

Have a wonderful day.
