Lead Sails

Time & tools: 14hrs + Paint tool SAI + Wacom

It's a painting, not a photograph!

The reasons why I chose to copy this portrait:
- it's b&w so I don't have to worry about the colors, but only the shading
- the lights are strong and the model has well defined muscles = it's WAY easier to paint this for me, than a more classic portrait picture.
- ... and he's sexy. COME ON!

Lead Sails (and a Paper Anchor) (1st + chorus)
Marching alone, like a good soldier does
I'm setting sail, with anchors holding me down
Pack up my bags, stow them away
I'm bidding farewell to all that is safe

Will I come up for air, come up for air
After awhile the current is calling me
Lulling me, waving goodbye
I'm out here alone, oh God can you save me now?
Sinking my heart turns to stone
