basically, try not to fall in love while you're in the hunger games ? pretty self explanatory. really solid advice, actually. but these two kiddos fail to do exactly that.
aka, what if we were the last tributes alive and refused to kill each other (well, more like the big scary career tribute from district 2 refused to kill the girl who maybe was nice to him even when he didn't deserve the kindness)? what if the consequences of our actions inadvertently started a revolution? hmm, what then ?
i've had naruto on the brain again and thought, hey what if the vampire gang were jounin sensei... so i dragged @blackcr0wkingart down the rabbit hole with me and here's what we came up with for them lol

playing around with brushes and textures again ! sometimes its frustrating just figuring out what i like, but this one was fun ! "painting" takes me forever, so i simplified this piece with an airbrush and a low opacity pen. it's a nice shortcut for some quick n easy shading when i dont want to spend hours just trying to shade somethin.
there's something just so appealing to me about being clean vs unclean, and i think that theme really represents whatever the hell howie and andria have going on.
uhhhh just some recent draws of paul, because i dont love him enough. i THINK about him a lot. outside of that, nothing ever happens w him. poor guy.
this is just me refining his color palette for hair and skin tone. little bit of a crooked nose, not very defined lips. petra's lazy-lidded eyes, except his lower eyelids are also pretty exaggerated. tans well in the summer from working outside, and always has these pink cheeks cause his face gets red easy.
