Isolation

It's L from Death Note; that's his shirt on the bed beside him, by the way. I drew this extremely late last night by flashlight after the rest of my family was asleep. Why? I don't know...I wasn't ready to sleep yet, and I sat down with a pencil and started doodling, and this is what I ended up with. Not bad for a random picture, if I do say so myself!

The window's curtains being drawn are symbolic of L barely ever seeing anyone face to face. Before working with Light, I doubt he saw anyone at all except for Watari.

Originally a pencil sketch; all shading and sepia tinting and watermarking done in Photoshop CS2. After all of that 3D stuff I just submitted, this is for you watchers who like traditional artwork better.

I actually drew a background, a very rare occurrence for me...enjoy while it lasts, I guess. XD; I already know the floorboards' angle is WAY off, don't worry. With shading it looks much more solid; this is, by the way, my first ever shirtless picture of L.

L is from the anime/manga Death Note, and belongs to Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata.
