“Unable to be what you want me to be, I destroyed it all
To the extent of becoming sick from selfishness, I’ve gone mad
Becoming more painful the more I love, having shot my heart dead wanting your concern
Such a manner of thinking is impossible to understand – the guardian of solitude
Wanting to be your most precious, I destroyed everything
Is simply wanting to be loved a crime?
The more I wish for it, the more painful it becomes, as if piercing my heart
Worn down by the loneliness,
The guardian of solitude”
~ “The Guardian of Solitude” by Natsu ft. Mayu, translation by Descent Subs/Ukwildcat387
HAPPY EARLY HALLOWEEN, EVERYONE. n___n
Yeahhhh. I actually managed to draw something this year, go me! Though I sure did have a lot of trouble along the way… OTL But moving on, I ended up drawing the Vocaloid Mayu, from her song Guardian of Solitude. To be honest, I don’t really know a whole lot of songs with her in them, but that one is just… awesome. It’s a yandere song and thus very creepy, but it’s very rocky and awesome-sounding. *O* It’s wonderful!!
By the way, the flower in her hair is a orange lily. In Japan’s flower language, orange lilies represent hatred or revenge. You can find the dress I drew her in here. I used one of SenshiStock‘s stocks – this one to be specific – for the pose. I’ve had a general idea for a picture like this since… I first heard that song little under a year ago LOL. I tried a different way of shading this time, though I don’t know how much you can actually tell. Her rainbow hair tips were actually a lot easier than I thought they’d be, so yay!
I think that’s… pretty much it? I hope everyone has a wonderful Halloween! I’ll probably just stay home, play Animal Crossing, hand out candy and all that. Thanks for looking and reading! Until next time! ;D
