I Had This Idea A While Back But Decided To Use - Blog Posts

durarara why shizaya izaya orihara shizuo heiwajima i made a thing a cheap imitation ehe it's like a parady of one of the saw movie posters a friend sent me a while back the one with the hanging teeth and i also absolutely took reference from the way @shigaeru draws izaya's knives i just really like the distinct shape he gives them also since this is aci that knife design is kinda burned into my mind as the aci knife design whoops the colours are also pulled and tweaked from that comic's first volume cover the red bg is very iconic and fitting for this sort of thing and the blue shading looks really pretty with it..... this whole thing is extremely derivative as you can see i wanted to adjust more with the piece but i make my best art in the very first burst of loosely slapping stuff down trying to clean anything up from there is futile so i tweaked some things and just had to make myself share it as is i wanted to make it clearer how the blade is cutting into the fabric but i couldn't figure it out :( i hope you can still manage to derive the intended symbolism from it lol i had this idea a while back but decided to use shizayaweek2023 free day as a deadline to help motivate myself to actually try it it's still late but whatever throwing it up at the door rn okay i actually sat on this for a few extra days just because of the horrific compression cursed upon it on upload i could not win no matter how small i made it i have no clue how to fix it so now it just looks like that i'm sorry ;o; maybe i'll try posting it somewhere else as well idk
