Roy's Scars - fanart
We watched a movie in History of Illustration, and it made me cry a little. It was about combat artists in WWII, who were part of the fighting, but also were hired to make paintings of the war around them. It was ridiculously powerful, paintings full of gore and death and fear. Plus, all of the artists they interviewed were (of course) old now, and the whole thing just made me really sad.

I wanted to draw something, so, I turned to anime because that's what I do. And, Roy was a perfect subject because I wanted to show him with his scar, and I wanted it to seem like he was embarrassed about it. I was thinking about the Kakashi fics I've been reading how how in a lot of them, he's portrayed as wearing his mask because he doesn't like his face. And, waking up is an intimate moment, which is why he's in bed.

I might have tried to be a little to deep for my good, and I don't really think this picture shows how affected I was by that movie (I don't have enough artistic motivation to produce a picture to show that.) Overall, however, I'm happy with how it turned out. I mean, it didn't exactly spend much time on it.
