Description Unicorn passion requested that i draw something based upon the song of the same name by the dresden dolls... well, i thought she seemed kind of dissapointed by him in the song... so um yup...

it's not meant to look like anyone in particular, so no need mention that it doesn't look like their lead singer lady whatsit, i know.

what did she say? i drew this for a freind who is a big fan, i'd never even heard of them before she asked me to draw this.

Oh sorry, I had to sound like an ignorant
She said "Lots of people think, that this song is about dildo, but no, it's about loneliness... well, so about dildo"

redwin12 In reply to 4th-EMOTION [2006-05-22 00:22:28 +0000 UTC]

oh, no, you certainly didn't sound ignorant, i think if anyone did it was me.
and i like what she said as well, i picked up an undertone of loneliness in the song, but i guess some folks don't... this was simply the impression i got, that she was very lonely, got herself a "coin operated boy" and then discovered that the true joy in a relationship is in fact the emotions that a robot cannot feel.

Good Job!

redwin12 In reply to RavenAlchemist [2006-05-21 17:41:23 +0000 UTC]

i thought her eyebrows were neat looking in the video, so i did add those, other than that, i doubt much there's a resemblance.

thank you!

Aramakael [2006-05-20 22:14:42 +0000 UTC]

Dresden Dolls FTW

To be fair, in the song it sounds like she prefers her coin perated boy to a real one unless I misunderstood what you said.

redwin12 In reply to Aramakael [2006-05-20 22:39:50 +0000 UTC]

this is a personal interpretation, i was shown the video, and listening, she seemed sad to me... i don't know why.

Yes A.I. is a movie

And now that ~Jimbo-Dragon mentions it, the eye of the left caracter reminds me of that movie too

I like the darkness in this picture, makes the lighting stand out nicely

Btw, I've "asked" for photography in this post, but maybe you could do it like this.. Please read this idea of mine and tell me what you think [link]

redwin12 In reply to Etsugua [2006-05-20 20:22:56 +0000 UTC]

hmmm... well i'm not sure i remember the movie, or even if i watched it, but then again, they do say that your subconsious stores things forever... so it's possible that i saw it in a movie and thought it looked cool... it was originally going to be sort of glowing, with lots of litle gears and stuff inside, but it was taking all the focus of the picture so i changed it to this instead. i looked at your idea, too... it's possible i will make a picture like that.
