Don't Take My Picture

Aww, Hiei's camera shy, hiding behind his book like that

I think I just worked for over 12 hours straight on this... And off and on since Sat. When I said my drawings seem to be taking longer to do, I wasn't kidding.

But anyhow, this is from an RP with Those that have watched me for a while might remember the goth Hiei sketch I did a long while ago. This is from the same one n.n Poor Hiei, he's trying to read, and Kurama's playing photographer *snicker*

Tried a different overall style. Fun, but very difficult to color >.>; Especially Hiei's hair, it's EVIL.

Used a picture of Daisuke from DN Angel as a reference for Hiei's pose, and some random random picture of a girl (haha) just sitting there, for kurama.
Also took the cover from Kaori Yuki's Boys Next Door for Hiei's reading material >D (Good shounen ai read if you're interested. Very twisted.) Wanted Angel Sanctuary, but I don't have the cover for that Oh well. Make due with what one has.

Hiei and Kurama were drawn and colored in OC3 with a Graphire3 tablet. Background was done in Photoshop 7 and Paint Shop Pro 8. (Wee, forgot my niichan ~MiraiDan had given me a disk with PSP on it. heh I have more goodies to work with! )
