Holy shit,thank you both for the DD! I never thought I'd get one! ;_;

edit 2:
Hokay, I've been up since six a.m. for stupid, stupid reasons and I decided to work on this a bit so I wouldn't fall asleep. I edited Liam's neck, leg and hand--made his neck a little shorter, his leg less curvy and a bit thinner, and his hand a bit longer--, added some tattoos I'd missed on Jean the first time out of pure laziness (the ones on hiiiis... left arm. I think. ohgodi'msofuckingsleepy) annnd put a ring on his finger (the wrong one). ;)

I also made the words darker.

I also made a different background with small polaroids and more lyrics all over that empty space, but it kind of blows. So I'm keeping that one to myself until I figure out a way to make it work.

Which may never happen.

Oh well.

I played around with the colours to make it look a bit less plain. I like it better this way. I'll post the original in my scraps.

This is the best cover of that song I've ever heard. It's by Clayhill. :)

When I was just starting to doll this, ~Padawan-Sielle suggested the song 'Today', by Jefferson Airplane. The lyrics to that are beautiful, but I decided to go for something that was more 'them', if you know what I mean...

I know I said I wouldn't doll them again (yes, I actually said that), but I saw this base and I couldn't resist. I missed them. Now this I'm sure is their proper goodbye from my gallery, at least until I finish the story. Stories.

That thing behind Jean's ear is supposed to be the tattoo of a wee shamrock, btw. But I fail, and I need to practise pixelling tattoos. Speaking of which, that is a tattoo of a rosary on Liam's ankle, and the dead tree + bats + moon + swirly things on his arm is his 'I'm not a fucking goth' tattoo. :P The scars on his arm have a long explanation behind them, but I can tell you it is not self-harm. The round things are supposed to be scars from cigarette burns. Again, long story...

Yes, they're both guys. If my telling you this isn't enough to convince you that the one with the ponytail is in fact a guy, by all means, think whatever the fuck you want and don't give me shit about it.

The gorgeous base is by ~scenefag, naturally. The stock used is by *syccas-stock.

Also: Liam is wearing Jean's hoodie. He doesn't even like the Specials. Or any ska band, for that matter. =P

Good times for a change. by ~MissRoxieGraves has an amazing use of color, creating a warm and comfortable mood. The tattoos are beautifully done and the different textures of the hair are fantastic. ( Suggested by =BlackfyreValyrian and Featured by `IridescentStardust )

Is the person with green hair a guy or girl?

I thought the person on the left was a girl because of the chain on the ankle.

i think the texturing and detail really does make me okay with a base art getting a DD. But I frankly do not like how rude your friend is to other people, telling them they have "shit art" just because they don't agree with the selection.

Thanks, I guess, but maybe you should tell him this instead of me. I know it's rude, but I didn't ask him to say those things.

My apologies, I got worked up. I was frankly trying to make a statement that this is an art site, not a blog for complaints but I let my irritation of their rudeness get the better of me. Please don't let my comments ruin your perception of this piece. c:
