Description

Happy Magnet Day! Five years ago on May 1st 2009, the wonderful, insanely catchy and compelling Vocaloid song named Magnet was published. :3 (It's been a long time!)
I'm just barely in time, though, even in my own timezone! This is what happens when I only start two days in advance... I end up having to rush a bunch! Still, my next project in art class is watercolor, so I was fortunately able to use this as a practice (and a pretty satisfying one)!
As usual, my scanner picks up certain colors better than others.

The inspiration for this one was Rat/Nezumi and Shion from No. 6, as is visible! I think their interactions and just the way they're so similar and so different is extremely interesting. Of course when I thought of Magnet, I thought of the sort of attraction-repulsion/opposition thing that I see a lot in No. 6 in general. This one was fun because I got to contrast some binary oppositions, a lot of which I see in the series - warm/cool and physical/emotional, just to start. (And of course Rat averts his eyes a lot in conversation, which I unintentionally included).

For being rushed, I like how this came out. ^^

Watercolor, Copic marker and colored pencil on watercolor paper - 9 x 12 inches - around 6 hours

[commission information] - I don't offer watercolor commissions yet, but I probably will soon since my confidence with the medium is increasing!
