Did anyone say Arawn, God of Death and Ardra, Goddess of Fate?
So, people have been asking me to draw these two for... like, many years now. And I thought it was about bloody time I did. So this is for all you who wanted to see some more Deity. Anyway, it also made me contemplate the relationship between these two, and the more I think about it - I do only see that Arawn is manipulating Ardra to his side. Which (by the looks of it) the blonde one is starting to realize. : p I've never really liked the way I've pictured Ardra, she's too naive for her own good. I might have to toughen her up just a little.
I got like 50 new markers this weekend! So I had a ton of fun going through so many different hues of blue. <3 Also, with my new media, I'm thinking of *legasp* actually making a tutorial.
Thanks for the support all, have a nice day.

Ardra may still get a storybook-like ending, depending on what type of ending you want. I kind of like the idea of her toughening up and continuing her relationship with Arawn after she's put in some ground rules, but she can also break away from him completely.
