I'm here for my sins, for the pain I caused others...
To defy nature is to pay a price...and I've paid mine...
Trapped for all eternity in this frozen shell...
wishing I could take it back...
take back the lives I stole...
wishing I could again be free.


Once a prince, long ago he killed an entire villiage of innocents on his quest for power...to face his atonement mother nature punished him, holding him fast in a frozen prison to stare up at the pained lost souls of those he killed moving forever sorrowfully above him.


I've been working on this picture for a long long time and honestly it ended a little differently than I originally intended. he was originally just going to be trapped in water but according to the general opinion of people I asked in my messenger during the WIP they preferred the ice better. ^^ I like the story this way better too.

Discoveries: I hate coloring tree and wood style stuff almost as much as I hate coloring hair

with my new computer I can color at a higher res without frying it

water and ice are still a bitch to color XD;

Dont remember where I got my different brushes from...sorry u__u. Most of my textures added with default photoshop things though...

Wow; I fricking LOVE the juxtaposition of the greenery and the ice, and ESPECIALLY how his hair is visibly frozen solid within it. Just beautiful.

For some reason I wanna go "PPPBBTHHBHBLBH!" on his tummy. ^__^

reminds me of sephiroth.

Only because I'm a FFVII whoooore. It's well done, at first I though he had no body below the hips. Trick o' the eye.

Agreed about water and ice... their unity yet chaos make them super hard to colour.
