I LOVE ALL MY CHEMICAL ROMANCES. ♥_♥ Just in case there was still any question about that.



Something else that I love? bexless' Unholyverse series. I Have Been All Things Unholy was basically my dream fic. (Since I was sixteen, I've occasionally been working on a foolishly epic comic concept about Catholicism and agnosticism that features the devil masquerading as a priest. I am kind of a theology nerd. There is nothing I love more than these sorts of themes.) I really wanted to do fanart for it - heck, I'd been wanting to do priest!Gerard fanart since my second week in bandom, when I first saw the photoshoot - but weirdly, I just didn't have any ideas. Last year was not a good year for art.

I did doodle this little panel the other day . . . of course, I forgot that Ray's actually supposed to be laughing when he says that line, but that bit cracks me up every time regardless.

But hey, it's a new year, I'm a whole new fanartist, and Staring Through The Demons proved . . . very inspiring. *g*

Three images below the cut, rated no higher than PG-13. About as spoilery as it gets, in case you're saving the series up to read when it's done.

I wasn't going to put captions in the inked versions of these, but then the second one wound up incorporating the words, so I just made it consistent. Quotes are from the fic, of course, and thus bexless.



The kiss! Kisses are fucking hard to draw . . . only took me three tries. *g* Background has issues and I went and put Frank's lipring on the wrong side (one of my reference images was flipped and I'm a little dumb when I'm into it), but ah well. Mikey, oddly, is my favorite part (I loved that the fic was from his perspective).



I cannot resist a big dramatic sacrificial moment. And . . . yes. ;_; (There is a big version of this one here.)



Group shot! Dear gods, I can't draw Ray. /o\ Actually, most of them look a little off, but I don't know . . . yay team! Band! Whichever. ♥

Whew. I have been working on those for awhile now. :)

I love all three of these so much! Mikey's face in the first one, and Frank and Gerard just clinging to each other so desperately. And Frank's hand reaching out to Gerard in the second one. With the rosary, that was a nice touch. And all of their faces in the last one! I loooove them.

I also enjoyed the little Ray panel and his face while he says he's a hairdresser. He looks so distraught at the fact! :D

Awww, thank you. ♥ I'm glad you like their faces in the last one - I've been staring at it too long, I was starting to have all kinds of misgivings.

Heeee. His squeaky dismay is so hilarious (not his porn!), I can't really blame myself for misreading the scene. :p
