Anthony Padilla as a fallen angel, based on 'Le génie du mal' by Guillaume Geefs.
There's that picture of Anthony as an angel from back then, that was my inspiration. I thought "What if he recreated that picture in his current look? Mh, white isn't it tho, I think black would suit him better", and this idea was born. Haha nooo don't do a phoshoot based on this noo hahah that'd be so sillyyy hahah.... unless...? 👉👈

a monochrome digital lineart sketch with horizontal layout. Canon era grantaire is holding enjolras in his arms while kneeling on the ground. He is supporting the head and legs of enjolras with his hands and is touching his lips gently to enjolras forhead as enjolras face is upturned and both have their eyes closed. enjolras appears lifeless if not for the arm behind grantaire reaching up to touch grantaires shoulder or hair. there is an implication of a flag covering them both from the right top corner to behind the characeters, maybe once i finish the wip it'll propperly be there.

This was a bit of a challenge, first of all because of the tattoos. They look so cool, I really hope I did them justice. Secondly because I chose to paint this monochrome and I wasn't sure how the finished work would look. I think it turned out pretty good, though! 🥰
