Thought I'd try something new.
I rarely use this style, but decided to start using it again for a little while at least. If I were to make a novel into a comic, I'd probably do "Cell" by Stephen King. Awesome book with an apocalyptic theme. But that'd be an awful large project. >> Character is inspired by how I imagined Derek would look like from the short story "Hopeless" Ben wrote a little while back shortly before the bloodsport started. This is the look he had on his face througout half the story when it was going through my head. A "OMFG ZOMBIES!!!" expression. XD Ironically, however.... This was the song I was listening to while drawing this. [link] Too bad his ending won't be so happy... I've also found the perfect quote that describes Ben's short story. "If you die, the world lives on. If the world dies.... YOU DIE TOO." I heard it in the trailer for the remake of "The day the Earth stood still." Therefore the quote isn't mine. |

(Hey, look, I'm currently failing at our really old art trade. Do you still want me to draw something else for you? 'Cause I can try on another subject.)

Umm... what did you have in mind?

Your parents are getting divorced too?! What with all these divorces these days, soon there'll be more divorces than marriages!
As long as it isn't
a) an animal
or apparently
b) you (because I phail at drawing people I know, especially without references -- doesn't help that I haven't seen you in a year or two as well.)

Errrmmm... If you can't draw that then can you draw a raver girl? Like dark clothes contasting with bright neon colors on them.... and glowsticks. XD I just like the look even though I don't wear it. [link] <------ example

I'll try both.
(.. Also, kind of unrelated but I thought I'd ask. Are you guys ever coming back for the holidays? Maybe this year or next? It's like everyone on dad's side of the family just up and moved, and it's not much of an event anymore...)

Umm... no I don't think I'll be heading back to Washington anytime soon.

I love this depiction of Derek >w< It's almost exactly what I had in mind! He looks so scared that I almost feel sorry for him :3
I didn't know you liked Hopeless so much x3 Thanks alot for letting me know! 8D
And for finally referring to me as Ben 8D

He does look scared. XD But this was hilarious fun to draw. Scared is probably my favorite expression to draw. =B
And I do like that story. It's sweet. Even if he dies. X) It's just that in most of these stories the main character doesn't die. Even though the odds are stacked against him. it's not realistic. This is how it probably would actually turn out.
Why wouldn't I refer to you as Ben? It's written at the bottom of every comment you write. And sometimes misspelled. X3 And once you get to know someone to a certain degree, it feels weird calling them by their username. Especially if it's something weird like "swiblet" Where did you come up with that anyways?
