Embracing Our Mutations

Description

Oh by Christ's balls its finally done! This picture has been a labour of love that I'd like to dedicate to my friend :iconepicracharaptor: for showing me how awesome this pairing is! For those of you who don't know, this is Alex Mercer from the game Prototype and Lucy/Kaede/Nyu from the Anime Elfen Lied. The theme, as the title suggests, is the two of them showing content in and embracing the other's mutations. These traits mark them as different and as such are usually used for horrific murder, yet here are being used as a show of trust and tenderness. I really think I conveyed it well with Kaede's vector in particular, with the way it's angled so lovingly to Alex. Also Lucy/Kaede/Nyu looks better in slightly Goth clothes than the rainbow clown barf Yuka dressed her in. AMIRIGHT?

Oh and to whom ever made THIS stamp: www.deviantart.com/art/Alex-X-… when it was only Rachel drawing these two, I hope your haaaappppyyyy noooow...Troll

Honestly though, I spent ages drawing this (especially Alex's freaking hair and face ):< ), colouring it (had to redo the shading on Lucy/Kaeda/Nyu's hair because it came out too dark) and then neatening it up on GIMP to look as perfect as it does now! :D (Big Grin) What really helped motivate me to finish this fucker was getting my Xbox360 back and replaying Prototype. Also my Fiancé :iconjohnnykirk2013: getting interested in the pairing enough to want to Cosplay it with me, though he still needs to watch Elfen Lied and he's playing Prototype for the first time. Yeah, he spends too much time playing really old games. Seriously he brought TWO old-as-shit Pong consoles AND an Atari 26000 with the original Mario Bros. game and keeps complaining that the buttons on the Xbox360 are the wrong way around because he plays to much old Mario. He also has a Youtube Channel all about Public Domain Movies, so he's basically James Rolfe/AVGN.2... Why do I love him again? Just Kidding, he's my Johnny Bibi.

Also this is where this sketch comes from: midnightdarkness666.deviantart…

[Edit 22/06/2015] Fixed Alex's face by erasing some of the lines, looks a lot less... odd.

Alex: “If I am still human, where do I fit in?… How do I rejoin the human race.”


Lucy: “I hate these horns, and I just want to live peacefully.”
