This is me with pretty wax wings, like Icarus in the story. Unlike Icarus in the story, I, in this picture, have not fallen into the sea and drowned. Therefore I win. pwn.
This style is one I developed at a week-long life drawing course I took recently (more on that in my journal), this is the first time I've used it for digital work, or with colour. It's a little messier than I would have liked.
As for media - I used Photoshop CS3, and my shiny new Wacom Intuos 6x8 tablet (which is freaking HUGE, the drawing area is almost exactly the size of my screen).
Doesn't he actually shrivel in the air and then his dead body falls into the ocean? Because I seem to remembers this loverly picture of the two flying guys with one all shocked and shriveled looking and the other one grieving and they where still in the air. Mmmm.... no nevermind it was just a graphic picture otherwise the melting wax would be insignificant.
But, as I have already typed all of this out I'll just post to tell you about the gory picture.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
