Description
Ian (left) and Alex (right). Ian is one of those surly short guys. Every now and then, His Grumpiness just gets in Alex's face because he can--Alex being a big sweetie pie who is not at all surly--but being the Big Dog, Alex snarls back. (Hey, Mister Cameron! My figments had pointy teeth WAY before your movie came out, dammit.) Then, having vented and feeling much better, Ian offers a kiss. Alex is big on kisses, he won't say no.
Some relationships are like that. The Ian's of the world (I am one of them) are very lucky in our Alex's. My poor sweetie is always getting bit for no particular reason...but she never minds. LOL
Production notes: Just two M4 with my own dial-spun characters, ID Kitt on Ian and PD's Sam on Alex. Angel Noir shirt on Ian, Wayii's Diamonds & Rust for Hardcore on Alex. Ron's Bokeh on the background & Ron's Artistic Edges in the frames. Much, much hair painting and some other fiddly stuff with the teeth that you probably can't even see done in post.
PS - no, they're not vampires or werewolves, but another mythic preternatural of my own invention. Still, bitey.
Do check out the larger version.

Great work
Nice!
Much, much hair painting..and so well done! You know, I have one of those texes and it doesn't look like that out of the box;)
LOL...know all about the Ians of the world (I am on too. My sweetie doesn't mind, occasionally he bites back. :D) Wonderful image. I love the interplay between the characters, you can easily see the love between them, even during snarling. And I amazed at your ability to paint hair. One of these days, I'll get a tablet and learn to paint it.
Nothing like kissing and making up!! LOL
Terrific!!!
O.o My god, I snickered my butt off at this-fantastic, Nan!! A perfect image to wake up too! Those two are so darned adorable. grin!
Great interaction and very expressive faces....!!! Excellent and creative idea....!!!!
Real nice job on the hair, really you can almost feel it , like the frame pulls the 2 picture together. Maybe snarling is a vampires way of saying hello!?;)
Very well done. The hair painting as always is fantastic.
