Albireo Cygnus

Description

This is Albireo Cygnus (Reo for short), a long lost little brother of Cygna (real name : Sadr Cygnus). I will introduce you to Cygna later :D The hair is suppose to be black, but I have no black marker currently.

He is from the tribe of Star, who has the ability to deal with time. Originally there was a tribe called Mermaid, who consider themselves as the best (well they are half God) and they exclude themselves from the world since they don't want to deal with filthy humans. The tribe of Star is actually Mermaids who married humans and their generations. They don't need any sacred weapon as they are half sacred :P (dunno how to explain this)

Reo's ability is to read the form of Stars, then tell the prophecy through his drawing. This is not a must, other user may use poems, songs, etc, depending on their interests. When his tribe was attacked, Cygna tried her best to save her brother. But little Cygna was attacked and she fainted when protecting her brother, she was assumed dead by the enemy. This was when Reo was taken by the enemy to help them to "see" the future and help them with their "project" (haven't really thought much about this) While he was taken care, the thought of, "you are only a worthless doll who has nowhere else to go" was always implemented in his mind. So he became a heartless and confused person (just like a doll), who does whatever he is told to do. He will meet Cygna later :D I am thinking to let him battle with art which is connected with the power of future time. But I have to think about this deeper (after all this character was found yesterday by accident)

---------------------------------------------------------------
Artist's Comment : this is where I talk about accident and stuff :P
This character is found by ACCIDENT! I didn't want to make this character at first, I just bought my new postcard size watercolor paper and I wanted to try it. So I drew on it, planning to draw an adult woman holding flowers. Then when I was finished with the rough sketch, I asked Allcor who she wanted me to draw. I thought it might be Cygna or Hikaru. But she answered GISELLE (8-9 years old) instead. So I tried to make Giselle and I FAILED... :cries: Why is she so hard to be drawn.... OK, I decided to try Cygna (Hikaru has been drawn too many times!) BUT since I had changed the face shape a bit, Cygna is too young (she is suppose to be 14-15) Then I wanted to add her hair. NOTE here that I've only drawn her in my sketchbook and I was still drying my sketchbook since I accidentally (actually not me) spilled water on to it (HUAAAAAA :cries:) during my quest to buy some art supplies at Granville Island. I did her hair as I could remember, but it turns out DIFFERENT (how stupid of me) And she looks like a little boy!! I talked to Allcor about this. I said there is a possibility that this is going to be a new look of Grid because, some of you must have realized, that Grid's and Ryuuya's hair style is the same and I am afraid you cannot distinguish them in the future. But Allcor said, "CYGNA'S LITTLE BROTHEERRRR!!" So there you go, Cygna has a brother. I should be careful with her or I will ended up with 30++ main characters one day in this story. One more character to develop, then I will develop the enemies. THAT IS IT. (or it will be hard to maintain)

---------------------------------------------------------------
Media :
Copic markers
Green water color for the background (I tried sumi-e style but I fail *sigh* the tutorial book that I JUST BOUGHT was also wet :cries:)
White postercolor + white watercolor + white speedball ink
Canson postcard watercolor paper 140 lb

Before I forget, NO STEALING I know most of you won't but just a reminder :) (who wants to steal this crappy drawing anyway)

Sorry for the long comment :)

EDIT : sorry, I changed the comment mode to discourage criticism. I only did this picture to try my new paper. I know there are a lot of mistakes (i.e. hands)..
