Artist's Comments

Kind of a symbolic pic for me all around. The figure is my muse, I kinda wanna rename him but my brain's not on at the moment so I'll think of something later. In the rpg I run he's the oracle, created through pure magic for selfish reasons, kind of a mistake. He's never seen without a strange egg that was created at the same time as he was, the egg is a representation of the realm's hope towards a golden age. I couldn't think of a better icon of hope than an egg. Inside you really don't know what form it'll take, it's fragile and precious, easily broken or crushed.

So yeah, yay for that.

Dunno if I'll color it, I kinda drew it during my lunch break today and cleaned it up when I got home after finishing up some other projects. He's mine so no touchy.

Edit: And that's not blood or tears from his eyes, they're pretty markings that will show up better if I get off my duff and color it XD

awww... ::sad:: I think this is just about the best image of the broken hope theme I have ever seen. This one made me want to tear up. And I don't usually cry easily.
It's the stuff running out of the crack/from the break that did it. It's dead, and I, being a bird enthusiast, know this all too well. Cracked eggs can sometimes survive, but if they lose their goo... they die. Very, very sad.

:nod: Yeah, I'm kind of in one of those moods and I just needed to vent on paper. It is sad when the eggs crack, we have some where I work in the finch nests and one hatched just fine but a few others didn't T_T

So here at the end of this day
Where the world is shaded in gray
I will look to the blue horizons and watch for you to come
When my hope is tattered and torn
When my faith is weathered and worn
I'll look to the blue horizons

This is really coool... I love all the different parts to the person... your mix-n-match-ness always appeals to something fanciful in me XD I think you should color this.

I have that happen with my finches all the time. I think with mine, they tend to get burried under new nesting material and so they get cold. I've had a couple that were mostly formed and then just couldn't hatch. I've had a few get punctured by toenails... it's really sad how few make it.
