The Thirteenth Rose

This is done for 's lovely short web manga, WiLLOW. Please show her your support!

I have a heart. It's just... not mine to give.

X_X I have no idea what category this should fall into. Fan art of original work of a deviant artist? X3

I don't think I can stomach any more roses. I drew and drew and eventually redrew different sections again, and I think I forgot Death's hair banglet... and I keep thinking that I forgot something... T_T

A little on this picture:

I've based it off of page... 7, I think. I know that the roses are supposed to be dead, and black as night, but I had an idea that maybe they'd revive for Willow and Death's wedding day? I mean, if I were a rose in Willow's bouquet, I'd definitely revive. How many times do you get to be a rose in Death's wedding?

Hehe.

I took references from YoukaiYume's own pictures of these two, and I'm not sure how close I got to their colour palettes (both have black hair and fairly pale skin, so I had to pick slightly different shades). Not to mention how many times I've second guessed Death's mask. Oi.

I don't think I can muster the courage to tell her I've done fan art, though...

Thanks for looking!

(I think this is the last picture I'll upload in my old drawing style, and it's pretty awesome that it got to be WiLLOW art, hmm?)
