Whoops it’s been a while since there’s been an update, here is one now.

My new favorite band to which to write the Grand Highblood’s scenes is Blind Guardian, FYI.

Deep in the ocean, dead and cast away
Where innocence is burned, in flames
A million mile from home, I’m walking ahead
I’m frozen to the bones, I am…

A soldier on my own, I don’t know the way
I’m riding up the heights of shame
I’m waiting for the call, the hand on the chest
I’m ready for the fight, and fate

The sound of iron shocks is stuck in my head,
The thunder of the drums dictates
The rhythm of the falls, the number of dead’s
The rising of the horns, ahead

From the dawn of time to the end of days
I will have to run, away
I want to feel the pain and the bitter taste
Of the blood on my lips, again

This deadly burst of snow is burning my hands,
I’m frozen to the bones, I am
A million mile from home, I’m walking away
I can’t remind your eyes, your face.

-“Iron”, by Woodkid

I present to you, the Grand Highbutt.

That song’s kind of been my headcanon GHB song for a while now, and it’s what I listened to for the most part while painting this.
This is, of course, Bramble’s esteemed GeeAich, who may or may not be especially thrilled at the fact that his goods are on display for the world to see. Sorry, GH. [Not really, but y’know].

Click through for the higher res version on the dA page. I may come back to this piece and work on it some more, but I think for now I need to just let it go and put it up.

I will be posting a Process-GIF of this later, when I get around to it. >3>

Hope you like. c:

[If you haven’t yet, go read Miracle Child. It’s especially excellent, as I’ve said many times a’fore.]

“Soyeah trollmesometime!”

“What the FUCK are you doing?”

“…”

“That’s my MOIRAIL, you know?”

“…no, ididn’t knowthat.”

(This was meant to be a warmup drawing today, it got away from me. While working on this, I determined that in my head, Rossan is Nathan from the BBC’s Misfits, only, yknow, grey.)

In related news, the submit page is now available if you’d like to use it for fanart or similar.

Hi my name is the Grand Highblood, how do I anatomy?
Your Levity, your arm really isn’t supposed to be able to bend back that far…but okay fine whatever. 

Fuck I am tired.
Okay so Gamz’ arm is also just kind of doing weird disappearing things. Well both of them are but one of them is really noticeable to me? It’s supposed to be because it’s laying more back and either in his pocket or slightly behind his pants but at this point I kind of stopped giving a fuck. >: so I guess it is what it is.

…

I’m gonna stop complaining about my own drawing.
Here, you have it. +dumps on tumblr+

Oh, I think I should also mention, that this is fanart for a fanfic?
It’s inspired by/based on Miracle Child by BramblePatch.

Her versions of Gamzee and GHB are much different than how I usually imagine them personally, so I thought it was pretty neat and decided to give it a go with actually drawing them.
I’m especially fond of the idea that the GHB would tie his hair back, because as anyone with slightly longer than three inches of hair [especially anyone who’s been in any kind of combat situation] knows, hair gets in the fuckin way and it’s really fuckin annoying more often than not.
 

Oh I should also mention that this is totally digital. 
I recently downloaded myPaint and decided to give it a test-run tonight, and I am pleased to say that this programme is massively intuitive and has really, really realistic brushes and textures and it’s absofuckinglutely fantastic. A++, def recommend downloading it and using it.
