Well, this isn't the pic I mentioned in my journal--instead it was a semi-spontaneous inspiration from that RP. You know the one. *points to Tatiana*

This is Thorne Urien (sp?), ~Imenak's character from the Elemental Academy. He didn't have a character pic, and since this lil' fella was so cool, I figured I'd try my hand at it and see if I could make a halfway presentable drawing. Of course, it was after I'd finished it that I learned someone else had already made him one. Curses. Should have checked the forums last night, eh? Well, I'm posting him anyway, for the sake of my pride if nothing else.

Enough rambling... This is Thorne, he's 13, and wields a scythe. Of DOOM (I'm gonna sing the Doom Song, now!). *cough* Yeah. He's an unpredictable character, and loves to instigate arguments and such. He's a decent size for his age...5'6" I believe. Yes, Tatiana's at least 6" shorter. He lacks some social grace, and can be abrasive (intentionally or not), but he and Tatiana are on pretty good terms thus far. He seems to have a respect for people who maintain civility with him (cookie incidents aside ).

Er... some technical things: I wasn't 100% positive what an aviator jacket looked like, so I modeled his coat after one of my own. Hope it's close. I gave him a Grim Reaper-style scythe instead of Ani's farm-implement-of-slaying, but apparently Reaper was the correct style, so I feel better about that. And I know you said he had Axel-ish hair, so I tried to do that in my own form, with more wisp and less spike. But I dunno, maybe it's supposed to be spikey/piecy? You did say on his CS that his hairs very unruly, and I tried to give him that without giving him a Tim Burton tangle on top of his head. Lastly, he looks a little too old. I made his head larger in proportion to his body, and that helped, but he still looks older in the face. >.< Eh. I also couldn't quite get his 'look-at-me-I'm-a-total-badass' facial expression quite right. Alas.
