Description
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
Invictus -- by William Ernest Henley
This is a very late Valentine's Day/Anniversary gift for my person, sleepyninjachan ! He's one quarter bald eagle at heart, so I drew his character Ryuu being all honorable and stuff XD My SO has always liked my sketches, so I tried to incorporate the original sketch into the picture XD; not sure how well that turned out... but tadaaah!
Lol I've been running pretty behind on all my other projects, so this is the first thing I've actually been able to complete... AAUGH I'm not entirely happy with some of the effects in this, but I can't afford to redo this damn picture anymore... Hopefully you guys like it too!You may NOT:
• Trace my art
• Repost my art
• Alter and then repost my art (this includes art collages and photomanipulation)
• Use my characters for your own means More art from me!

Keeping the sketch in there looks really neat too. c: Sketches are awesome and they add a little bit extra depth to things like this I think.

Lol I actually tried a new technique for hair this time! I used a partially opaque brush for the first layer of hair, then I layered over it with darker greys and lighter greys! I'm glad to hear it worked so well! OnO *success face*
