An Embrace of Sorrow

FULLVIEW PLEASE~

This is a fanart of the infinitely gorgeous, yet unjustly obscure visual novel game, Animamundi: Dark Alchemist. It started as an old sketchbook drawing from early on this year when I discovered the game, but after fangirling with over it, I decided to scan it in and finish it.

The characters are Georik Zaberisk, the protagonist, in the red coat holding his sister Lillith's severed head (she's actually still alive, but, within the context of the game, this makes a little more sense) and Mephistopheles, obviously a devil, off to the right. The title was pulled from a song from the soundtrack that I'm fond of. I'd really love to do a picture with Georik, Mephisto, Mikhail, and St. Germant together at some point, if time allows. I can't recommend the game enough, so feel free to ask me questions about it if you're curious.

I wanted to try out some new digital painting techniques and apply some of the principles I recently learned from doing traditional painting. I think most of them worked relatively well, so hopefully this will mark the dawn of an era of digital paintings for me that are not hopelessly full of suck. xD
