X-men: First class fan art- Autumn emotions

Sorry, I'm spamming with art again. Because of my computer problems I've been really bored, I draw a lot when bored.

Preview:



Isn't it beautiful, Charles?

//Yes, it is.//

You're supposed to be looking at the metal sculpture Charles ;) (I have this thing for moving leaves, don't I?)


Hello Erik.

It doesn't hurt me.
Do you want to feel how it feels?
Do you want to know that it doesn't hurt me?
Do you want to hear about the deal that I'm making?
You, it's you and me.

Kate Bush is wonderful inspiration ♥  Charles has such a hard face to draw, originally almost scrapped this as I thought it was so awkward and I had messed it up facially, not enough emotion there. Though I need to draw a follow up to this of forgiveness and reconciliations, that will hold more emotions. Had to put their radar dish in there XD

I really want to change my style....

So, so gorgeous and I am entirely not surprised you're getting rave reviews on this :D Love how on both pictures Charles' gaze is the strongest and his expression the most compelling, even though the whole perspective has changed from the first to second to favour Erik more. You've handled the transition well, and there's so much in these paintings (?) that you could spin so much writing out of this...

How long did it take you, by the way? It looks like a lot of work!

Have to admit I was VERY surprised, never expected to wake up to so many amazing and lovely comments ♥ Charles to me is always the one to show much stronger emotions so he became my focus for them. Erik's subtler, though his eyes are often always on Charles too in the movie. The last was Eriks moment to show an emotion he'd probably try to hide. I hope they really inspire people to create more stories ♥

Hard to say as I drew them in spurts over a few days. I think about 6 hours each or a bit more, i'm usually really slow to draw (terrible at time keeping XD)
