A Morbid Fascination...

FULL-VIEW PLEASE!!
This is Ulquiorra and Orihime Inoue from Bleach. Even though I'm a staunch IchigoxOrihime shipper, this pairing has interested me since chapter 247, when he told her in so many words that her Arrancar outfit looked good on her... XD As far as the "glow" I've got in this pic... It's my favorite technique. I think I'm gonna do a couple more with this mega wattage goin' on... Oh yeah, tried a little different approach with the mediums... I didn't ink it because I wanted to get a little bit of sketchy-ness in there and only used Copics on Hime's hair...

There's a fic based on this piece now! Yay! It's by and it's called "Touch" : [link]


The song I found and drew this to is ~amazing~... It's called "Welcome to the Slaughterhouse" by Lily Holbrook

Unfortunately, I couldn't find lyrics, but I tried writing most of the lyrics down:

Locked inside this cage,
Where all the world's your stage,
and in this silent rage,
can you turn the page?
Into something new,
The fantasies,
Of burden beasts, blood,
...kings and queens

If I could let these thoughts drown,
someday she might lose her crown.
And damn these chains that hold me down-
Set me free.

No more screams or shouts
Quiet as a mouse,
and in this slaughterhouse,
is there no way out? Of here?
Feed the fears and hide the grief
...

If I could let these thoughts drown,
someday he might lose his crown.
And damn these chains that hold me down-
Set me free.

Don't look back and don't look down
and fall into the wishing well,
You're frozen under someone's spell,
...
("..." is the lyrics I couldn't get.)

You gotta listen to the song when you view this pic... It captures a great mood and makes the pic all come together...

Done in pencil, watercolor pencil, Copics and Corel Photopaint9...

No crit please
