FanArt: The Space Between
by Brenna Yovanoff

 
Summary:
Being the youngest daughter of the Devil has never been easy. Daphne's father has no time for her, her mother no interest, and her status in the upper echelon separates her from the working-class demons that populate Lucifer's metropolis. When her brother and only confidante goes missing, life in the restrictive city of Pandemonium becomes intolerable. Now, in an attempt to find him, Daphne sets out for Earth - and finds it larger and more chaotic than she imagined: a dazzling expanse of noise, dirt and random violence. Despite her bewilderment, she navigates the mortal world with growing fascination, gaining an ally when she saves a dying boy from her father's minions. For Truman Flynn, the last year has been one long downward spiral, but when Daphne arrives just in time to save his life, he finds himself unexpectedly glad to have another chance. Together, Daphne and Truman go in search of her brother, braving the hazards of Las Vegas and the perils of first love, even as it becomes increasingly clear that her brother might have had a secret and compelling reason for leaving. Lucifer's agents aren't the only creatures on the prowl, and Daphne soon finds herself the target of a plan to rid the world of demons for good. Now she must evade a demon-eating monster, rescue her brother from an angelic zealot, and save the boy she loves from his greatest enemy - himself.
Summary from Amazon.com
Appropiateness: for any readers that are in seventh grade and beyond

CLAUDIA FROM INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE BY ANNE RICE



This character is Claudia from The Vampire Chronicles. I’m actually not sure what she’s supposed to be doing in this picture… I saw that pose in a book about vampires and thought “Oooh! That reminds me of Claudia!” So I drew her. The character Claudia in the books is a female vampire who was made when she was six years old. And she is very violent.

YAMI BAKURA AND MARIK FROM YU-GI-OH! BY KAZUKI TAKAHASHI


It’s Yami Bakura! And Marik. But mostly Yami Bakura! I’m not really sure what they’re doing in this picture… According to the theories me and my friends, Kaila and Kaylin, came up with, they’re standing in the middle of the Great Depression plotting their revenge because they’re evilly depressed and angry. Oh, and Marik saw a spider on the floor. I drew them because… erm… I love Yami Bakura! And Marik is pretty cool too. Go easy on the criticism, please, this is my first attempt at drawing anime.

YAMI BAKURA FROM YU-GI-OH! BY KAZUKI TAKAHASHI





I like this one. He looks diabolical. I drew this picture because I had nothing better to do while I was waiting to be judged at regional history day. It’s not my favorite one, but, hey, it’s Bakura.

YAMI BAKURA FROM YU-GI-OH! BY KAZUKI TAKAHASHI

Another Bakura picture!!!!!! I don’t really like this one as much,but I still think it's all right. This was when he was trying to find Yugi after Yugi had been kidnapped.

YAMI BAKURA FROM YU-GI-OH! BY KAZUKI TAKAHASHI
Yeah… another one. Sorry. You could say I’m a bit obsessed. But I love this picture! I drew this at midnight, like most of my pictures…. Anyways. That’s all of mine! I hope you like my drawings!

Twisted Alice--Fan Art by YamiHeart

Hi, YamiHeart here again with more fan art.  This time I did the classic story Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carrol with my own personal twist.


I know there's a lot going on, so here's a quick overview:  the Mad Hatter is pouring mercury into the tea (he thinks it's creamer), the Tweedle brothers are in straight jackets, the Red Queen has gone psycho killer, the White Queen has lost her head, the Caterpillar is smoking (as usual), the March Hare has rabies, The White Rabbit's tied up in chains, the Cheshire Cat is...being the Cheshire Cat, and Alice WAS supposed to be annoyed, but now I think she's dead.  Hope you enjoyed. ^^

fan art

Hello this is Ren here. As I promised I drew fan art of the book I read. This one is fan art of The Last Apprentice: Revenge Of The Witch. The book is about a boy named Tom who was sent to work as an apprentice of a spook. A spook is some one who travels from village to village defending them of witches, boggarts, and ghosts--yes, ghosts. I drew one of my favorite characters: the Spook.

He has a name, but I think that would be kind of giving away spoilers. In the picture there are things that are mentioned in the book. On the left are the iron bars that are on the ground with a hand coming out.  In the book that's what you need to do to bind a witch. The rock on the right is a reference of how the apprentice before Tom, Billy, who was mentioned in the book, died. It's also the way of how to bind boggarts. They didn't mentioned how to bind ghosts but if they did I would of drawn that too.
--Ren


This picture is based on the manga xxxHolic. The woman's name is Yuko, and the boy's name is Watanuki. The little black thing on the rope that Watanuki is pulling is named Mokona. In this scene, Yuko is forcing Watanuki to move a bunch of boxes with some rope. In all honesty, I doubt Watanuki will ever move them. Yuko probably knows he won't be able to move them, which is why she asked Watanuki to do it. The reason Watanuki is in an apron is because that's his "work uniform" Yuko makes him put on everyday. Mokona is trying to help Watanuki by cheering him on, but it's obvious the only thing Mokona is doing is adding more weight to what Watanuki is pulling.

This fan art is from the book A Great And Terrible Beauty. The drawing is of Gemma Doyle, the main character. I drew it because, well, I like to draw, and I was bored one day.  --Up North Girl
