Marker practice

elabyI bought some watercolor paper to see if my Prismacolor markers bleed less on it, and they work pretty nicely. I did a picture of Anthy as an experiment 'cause she's all colorful. I tried to do her in "my style" and I like the results pretty well, but she looks SO different when you compare the two styles side-by-side because people the Utena anime style are so skinny. I just can't draw people looking that waiflike, no matter how hard I try.
Anyway, the picture is hooge, so I'll just link the DeviantArt entry. Her skirt was definitely an experiment with fabric and lighting, and it came out looking all right, even if it might be illogical in some places. Anyway :) Link!

The picture was inspired by Suzanne Vega's Marlene on the Wall, which is really Utena-apt.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
caitirin did an iconset to it once.
Even if I am in love with you
All this to say, what's it to you?
Observe the blood, the rose tattoo
Of the fingerprints on me from you
Other evidence has shown
That you and I are still alone
We skirt around the danger zone
And don't talk about it later
Marlene watches from the wall
Her mocking smile says it all
As she records the rise and fall
Of every soldier passing
But the only soldier now is me
I'm fighting things I cannot see
I think it's called my destiny
That I am changing
Marlene on the wall
Well, I walk to your house in the afternoon
By the butcher shot with the sawdust strewn
"Don't give away the goods too soon"
Is what she might have told me
And I tried so hard to resist
When you held me in your handsome fist
And reminded me of the night we kissed
And why I should be leaving
Marlene watches from the wall
Her mocking smile says it all
As she records the rise and fall
Of every soldier passing
But the only soldier now is me
I'm fighting things I cannot see
I think it's called my destiny
That I am changing
Marlene on the wall
Marlene watches from the wall

As she records the rise and fall
Of every soldier passing
But the only soldier now is me

I think it's called my destiny

Marlene on the wall
And even if I am in love with you
All this to say what's it to you
Observe the blood, the rose tattoo
Of the finger prints on me from you
Other evidence has shown
That you and I are still alone
We skirt around the danger zone
And don't talk about it later
And I tried so hard to resist
When you held me in your handsome fist
And reminded me of the night we kissed
And of why I should be leaving
Marlene watches from the wall
Her mocking smile says it all
As she records the rise and fall
Of every man who's been here
But the only one here now is me
I'm fighting things I cannot see
I think it's called my destiny
That I am changing, changing,
changing, changing, changing,
Marlene watches from the wall
Her mocking smile says it all
As she records the rise and fall
Of every soldier passing
But the only soldier now is me
I'm fighting things I cannot see
I think it's called my destiny
That I am changing
