Dorian from From Eroica With Love.



The original is in about 800 layers of colored pencil and marker, with all this neat subtle glazing shit*. But I was screwing around with the scanner, got this when I saved as a .gif file, and really liked the comic-booky look.

*Shit -- technical art term.

Thank you, ma'am.

He (that *is* a he, right?) lreminds me of this boy (I use the term loosely) who wore pink dresses to school when he was in kindergarten and now looks like Fanon!Draco Malfoy. And is going to the Baltimore School for the Arts next year. Nice work, btw.

He's a him, though I saw Heather Bruton's lovely fanart of him for a couple of years before I realized it.

In the comic, his friend Klaus is marked as straitlaced and butch by the fact that his hair only goes to his shoulders, and isn't permed. I like manga because it is made by insane people.

This boy sounds awesome.

He is a pretty awesome boy. My daughter is very fond of him (and not just because he looks like Fanon!Draco).
