Lament by Mewsea

@sharp_eyed_detective Lowell is feeling pretty - well - low.

At first, I wasn't sure which character of yours to draw because they're all so charming... But after reading through each of your character's lore/personalities, I knew it had to be Lowell. I'm a sucker for a well-written villain.

I might draw a few of your other characters if you don't mind, but they won't be entered into the contest (obviously).

Also, I apologize profusely if I got anything wrong with Lowell!

Oh hey, more background practice? Really love the worn-down wall and various objects scattered around! Oh no, he's crying ToT

Sharp_eyed_detective has great characters with fascinating backstories. Lowell is the immortal hitman, right? That's certainly a difficult villain for any hero to have! >o<

You did an amazing job with this drawing of Lowell! You really captured the essence of his character—the perfect balance between his cold, stoic nature as an immortal hitman and the vulnerability that lies underneath. His expression, the pose, and the details around him all tell a powerful story. The lighting and background add a beautiful touch of melancholy that fits him so well. Thank you so much for bringing him to life like this—it truly means a lot!!! <3<3<3

@Puzzled Yup! Are you surprised? I am too. Especially considering I used very little reference for this art, which might have been a bad move. Still looks pretty solid to me, though. But probably not so much once I improve my art in the future.

I'm slowly learning that it's perspective I'm terrible at, and not so much the backgrounds in general. If the perspective is wrong, the whole art is ruined, including the character and background.

So, I'm going to start learning perspective, one small step at a time! Wish me luck!

@PoodleKingdom Yeah, it's the perspective I'm worried about, though. Like I told Puzzle earlier, if the perspective is wrong, the whole art is wrong.

I might start drawing people with boxes instead of circles, if I'm doing something with a lot of complicated perspectives.

I also recently learned that perspective can have more than one (and even three!) vanishing points. Which makes sense since things can be in multiple angles on a plane. So, factually, you can have as many points as you want in you art.

Sorry, I didn't mean to talk so much. ^^'

@sharp_eyed_detective Eeee! Thank you so much! That's exactly what I was going for, so I'm glad I drew him right!

I've been wanting to draw one of your characters for awhile now! They're all so expressive and full of personality.
I think I drew your least favorite OC, though, haha. Sorry about that. But if you're happy, I'm happy! :)
