Two Lonely sister take the time to mourn the aniversery of their mothers death side by side. The girl on the left is the necromancer Alexia and The winged girl on the right is the assassain Seraphie. Alexia is related by birth to the necromancer Garlind and Azalea while Seraphie is related only by adoption. Azelea's body has been kept preserved by an ancient lost technology restored by the knowladge of the Lich. Garlind aspires to one day resurect his wife, long since slain by the Torlion Skorn. Though they don't always see eye to eye, Seraphie and Alexia still love each other as sisters should. Really this families structure is far too complicated to go into great detail here but soon enough I'll try and post up some excerpts from the chapters I've been tring to write. This is one of my earlier works where I used Copic markers alone to handle the Coloring. I wasn't able to post it until just now though since I didn't have enough Sci-Fi pics before. ^_^()

This one has more of a mysterious, anime type feel to it.

13 Jose Rafael CruzpaganIII replies: "  Thanks a lot bro! I'm pretty sure that this was one of the last drawings where I used Copic markers alone and I'm sure that it had something to do with it. All the ones after it are mixes of Copics with Prismas. For all you who don't know this is my Lil Bro who just hatched his first daughter not too long ago! ^_^ "

I can't believe that there are so few comments on this picture. I love it, it looks really creepy but also very calm. And I'm glad that you know that the blue colors shall be in the background and the red ones in the foreground. Keep it up.

12 Jose Rafael CruzpaganIII replies: "Yeah I don't get it either. it would be nice if people would at the very least comment on why they don't like one of my drawings once in a while. ^_^ I do sort of feel though that I did sort of rush through this one though. There was a breif period in time where I wanted to pump out as many drawings as possible in a very short amount of time... they seem to be the ones that get the fewest comments like... "A Couples Pain", "Old Freinds", "Lancer Vs. Baulter", "Sisters Of Sorrow", and "Lyja Werewolf Princess" though alot of people seem to like that one while I don't for some reason. "The Cleric Seraphie" was the first one where I started to take my time again and cram in as much detail as possible, there is a noticable increase in detail from that point on. ^_^ Maybe I should just remake some of these less popular ones. Thanks again for your wonderful comments. ^_~"

I wanted to put this on the other picture of her too, but, Alexia's clothes are just the absolute coolest ever. Damn, now I'm inspired.

1 Jose Rafael CruzpaganIII replies: "Thanks alot! ^_^ I've got another piece featuring Alexia in the works now too (Dark Maiden Series). I've been putting alot of work into improving her main dress hopefully I'll be able to work out all of it's bugs really soon.

I'm very glad that I was able to help bring you a bit of inspiration. ^_~ Thank you very much again for taking so much time to comment on my artwork. =^_^="

Chee! What a great piece, nice! What's the story though? It looks great! I also tempt to base my art on a story, however I don't colour them much. Well... I'm trying to! Anyway, keep it up matey! cheers

30 Jose Rafael CruzpaganIII replies: "Thanks alot! The story? Lemme see. I guess you could sort of look at this as though they visiting the grave of their mother.

Though Alexia (Shorter hair) believes (as their father does) that she can be resurected and doesn't really look at here as being dead more like asleep.

Thus they have these meetings with their mother even though the two sisters barely see eye to eye, and I'm not talking about height. ^_^() Thanks again for the great comment! "
