Finally had some time to draw, so here’s a moody-but-still-dangerously-attractive Kylo Ren. Not sure how or why I drew him in a red cloak, it just sort of happened lol
When Ben, an aspiring photographer and writer for a supernatural online blog, finds out that there might be a vampire in the town he decides to interview him. Who would have guessed that instead of getting eaten alive he would fall in love?
These two images are clearly connected; they are visual reflections of each other. However, the differences are interesting to consider.
Rey is associated with nature (& its raw power) and Kylo with industrialisation/machinations of war. Rey: water – life, stone – stability; Kylo: mirror-like surfaces – deceit, durasteel, duraplast, etc – all man-made. There’s nothing separating Rey from her path forward, but Kylo is behind a solid (albeit transparent) barrier.
Also, space opens up for Rey but it encloses Kylo. The camera is directly behind Rey, which emphasizes that she’s facing the power she sees before her straightforwardly. Kylo, we see from an off-center angle, which makes him seem more pensive? Troubled? Unsure about his connection to what he’s regarding? His stance is firm, though, and his reflection is clear. He thinks he knows where he stands.
Their arm positions: Rey’s arms are relaxed and down at her sides. She’s open to the path in front of her. Kylo’s hands are clasped in front of him, guarding/enclosing himself.
There is a clear focal point for Rey – the horizon. Kylo only has a confused, semi-obstructed visual field. She knows where she’s going. He only thinks he does – but there’s actually no destination in his view; only an enclosed storage place. A dead end.
Interestingly, the light source for both is in front on them.
Hi fandom friends 😀 I’ve never done one of these, but I’ve wanted to for a while. No reason other than for fun. Nothing particularly big or impressive but getting mail/gifts is fun, right? 🙂
I’ve compiled a few fun dark-sidey-things to go to one cool person, pictured below!
Rules are below that, there aren’t many but please read them!
So here goes:
1. Tattered Black Cowl™ for optimum Extraness in cold weather
(1. Sorry for the terrible picture, 2. The one pictured is my one, yours is exactly the same but new/unworn with tag on and a little hanger)
2. Darth Vader Mug, for those who like their coffee/tea/cocoa on the dark side
3. First Order can cozie, for keeping your drink as cold as Starkiller Base
4. May The Force Be With You ring in ring box, so the Force will be with you always (ring is size 10, if that’s too big/small for the winner I’ll include a chain to wear it as a necklace)
5. Additional small goodies such as stickers, decals, keychain, etc. (Not pictured because surprises are fun).
All items are new/unused and in their original packaging.
RULES:
1. You do not need to be following me (though if you did decide to, we can be friends and that would be cool!) 2. To enter: like and/or reblog this post. 3. ONE like and ONE reblog per applicant, so up to TWO total entries per person. 4. ^While I can’t stop people from reblogging from side blogs for extra entries, I’m going to come out right now and frown upon it, as it gives some an advantage over those who don’t have side blogs. 5. Winner must be willing to provide an address to send winnings to. I will ship internationally.
You have until the end of the day on MONDAY, NOVEMBER 20 to enter.
On Tuesday, Nov 21 I’ll enter all the URLs into a randomizer, announce the winner and get in touch with them.
I’ll try to have this shipped by the beginning of December so you get it in time to use the cowl to mop up your tears when you go see TLJ. :’)
Hux refuses to go to Snoke like a schoolboy waiting for punishment he did not deserve. Now
he has two weeks until they reach the Supreme Leader’s quarters to
stage a coup and take Snoke out of the equation. To do that he will not
only need his crew, but also the loyalty of his rival. Nobody said becoming an Emperor was easy and pleasant.
