This is my :pumpkin: Happy Halloween :pumpkin: image for October, featuring my new character named Noir. (Noir means black... get the title? :slow: )

Noir is a seemingly young looking albino girl who can conjur and control spirits-like entities, hence the dark figure behind her.
I say seemingly young because she's perpectually trapped in her young body, after having sold her soul in an attempt to summon something beyond her powers... or something like that...

The idea behind her I actually thought up since Halloween of last year, but it wasn't until I saw the 4th Harry Potter movie that I was inspired to draw the statue (of Death? a demon? you decide...) that's holding her.
I definitely had to reference several sculptures of angels, Greek mythological figures, and Grim Reapers to get a sense of how the folds should look.

All outlining and shading done in traditional ink (R.I.P. to two of my pens :dead: )
Stone texture on statue scanned in from some fancy printer paper
Color, text, and effects done digitally

Illustration copyright ME --> JoJoCookie-Chan

*Edit*
Yay I'm a winner, for the ~loligoth2 November contest. :winner:

Thankies! I couldn't help but go for the gothic lolita look again. It's just easier for me to think up clothing details with the style.

Erek-kun! :glomp: Nice to see ya back. I can't wait to see more of your masterpieces.
I promised you a picture you could color, but I haven't drawn much lately unfortunately.
You could possibly color my recent "Tribal Angel" sketch if it's workable. I'll have to get rid of that annoying watermark for ya though.
