This painting - as detailed as it is - was actually reallly easy for me...even easier than my Esther Blanchett painting! This came as a surprise, for on my Esther Blanchett fanart, that painting took a while. But this (which is obviously more detailed) only took me a few hours. That reallly came as a relief. Here I was expecting to have a difficult time on this painting, but I was proven otherwise. I guess I am getting better at my artwork?
Well, here I am, submitting another Trinity Blood fanart! This is Augusta Vradica (a.k.a. Seth Nightlord). For those of you who know Trinity Blood well, you know Augusta/Seth (I'm just going to call her Seth from now on) has about 7 different variations of this outfit. I know it's not 100% accurate, but I based it mostly off of her Reborn on the Mars III (novel) outfit. I like that one the best anyway. I had fun drawing Seth, especially because of all the detail in her outfit. Trinity Blood is a very inspiring novel (it has also been made into a manga & just recently, an animation) & THORES Shibamoto (the illustrator & character designer of Trinity Blood) does the most gorgeous artwork; her stuff is amazingly & incredibly detailed!
I know all you masters-of-proportion probably think her pose might be a little off, but I purposely made her look as if she were just settling down into place. (Does that make sense?) I thought about what environment to put her in. At first, I had wanted to make her sitting in a throne surrounded by all these lace curtains, but then I believed a garden scenery would be more delightful. So ja, in a rose garden Seth is in. (I roses.) As for the wild sky, in Reborn on the Mars III, the sky is that odd orange colour. (Refer to my Esther Blanchett painting). I decided such a sky would have a wild-coloured twilight.
Drawn in Acrylic Coloured Inks & then coloured in Japanese Koi Watercolours.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
Have a great time everyone and please fav this article so as many people can see the featured works. I would recommend seeing each one and faving them too.
