Chaz is the keyboardist of a band known as Death Wish. He is 22 years old, constantly dyes his hair, has a phobia for what he referrs to as \social diseases\, and has fallen for the manager of Bloodwraith, Kei. In his personal life, he is a bottom but he will fight back if pressured enough. His friends know that if his buttons are pushed enough, he is like a time bomb waiting to go off. It took me forever to figure out what hair color to go with because of his constant changing hair style. I did put him in a nice shirt even though he hates suits but I'm bad at drawing different types of shirts. Media used: Photoshop, mouse Chaz, Bloodwraith are copyrighted, me (icenectar).

They look so cute as kids even Carrot. I think Marron looks the cutest though. Anyways this is something I did since I actually have time to do something.

This is a cute story about a young demon lord in training, Raenef and his advisor/teacher Eclipse (who was once a high ranking demon before he became a servant). Along the way, young Raenef (who would rather be playing instead of studying the etiquite of being a demon lord) picks up a female knight as a page and a cleric gets thrust into his care as well.

The image referenced was one found on the internet. For those who haven't seen the series, it's pretty heavy although I don't think it's one I'd want to watch over and over again. I didn't mind the story-line, I just don't see the replay value in it. It's done by the same people who made Noir (for all you anime junkies out there).

Anyways, this is Marron. I think my biggest problem aside from his hair was his skin color. For some reason Marron is paler than his brother and it took some time to figure out the correct color without it looking weird. The eyes are also slightly farther apart than I wanted but it's hard to get things perfect when basing the picture off of a photograph. Oh, I've found that the brush option aside the file browser tab is really useful. That's what I used on his clothes and the background. I'm not exactly sure what I did so I can't explain in more detail. Media used: Photoshop, mouse.

I still have to do a proper piece of him but I figured a dynamic shot was also needed. I haven't tried something like this before so I wasn't sure how it would turn out.

Yes this is a recycled pose ^^. For those of you who don't know him, this is Zelgadis Greywords from the anime <i>Slayers</i>. If you recognize the pose, it's probably because I used an image from the <i>Kiss of Fire</i> artbook for reference. Yes, I still have to use references. I'm pretty bad if left to my own devices. Media used: Photoshop, mouse. I used the Pantone color option in Photoshop. I think this works much better than the default setting so I'll probably be using it in the future.

Jade claims it was his \irresistable charm\ that made her fall for him. She doesn't like road trips so she seldom accompanies him on tours. If she did, she'd probably be aware of his extra-cirricular activities She really cares for him, nonetheless and she wishes that he'd use his other talents just in case something happens to the band. Unfortunately, Jade has a tendency to be lazy when he's not rehearsing with the band or clubbing.

This is a Fennec he has run into during his trip to the desert. They are a docile species and were enslaved unexpectedly by a human raid in the night. This one, thankfully is enslaved with his brother and they find comfort within each other. Chanirra eventually frees them and entrusts them to the desert spirit who has vowed to find them a home away from humans.

He is very business oriented and doesn't get out that much for his own personal enjoyment. He owns a dog, a Newfoundland and they go out to the ocean at least once a week. Kei has a deep love for the singer of the band, Aidan but unfortunately Aidan doesn't see him the same way. Here he is at the ocean talking on his phone while his dog is probaly romping in the water.

She always wears clothing common of men and is somewhat disenchanted that the men she has known see her only as \one of the guys\. Since she is close nearing the marrying age, her father is quite worried that she will never find someone and wishes that her mother were still living to teach her the ins and outs of being a girl. The one thing going for her aside from her woodsman knowledge and good cooking skills is her...assets. To put it bluntly, she is stacked but she doesn't normally wear this sort of clothing because it hinders movement and quite realistically, does not provide much protection. So here she is, in sexy attire (which had to be borrowed because she doesn't own anything revealing) hoping to catch a certain male elf's eye....
