**(Since few people read descriptions, I'll put this in bold: PLEASE SCROLL TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS DESCRIPTION IF YOU ARE HAVING MAJOR ISSUES WITH THIS IMAGE IN TERMS OF SIMILARITY TO COWBOY BEBOP. And click the link )**


=========================

That's right, he's far too cheap to have a real gun. Plus I didn't want to draw one X)


Who wants to know something freakishly coincidental?! *___* You do? Ok! :3 My last uploads go in this order: January 23, March 23, May 23--I swear to you, it's nothing more than coincidence that it happened on the 23rd day of every other month ;__; Speaking of which, I'm officially on vacation as of this past Wednesday and will now proceed to enjoy three months of blissful nothingness until I begin the brand new experience called UNIVERSITY XO Yes yes, I'll actually finish things that are lying here and there now and upload them, shh! D<

Anyhey X3 If you can guess who this is, you are....a good guesser :3 I'll give you some hints; a) he's mine, b) he's in two other deviations, and c) he's Israfel. Oopth, as if it was difficult anyway Some things about him?

1 - He's not a demon, as loads of kiddies liked to think about him previously ;__; Makeup is his friend.
2 - ...Or maybe he is a demon, and you're just the pawn of my twisted mind game.
3 - Favorite pasttimes include laundry, overfeeding goldfish, terrorizing small children and supporting the WWF (that would be "World Wildlife Foundation," not to be confused with "World Wrestling Federation" ¦3) because their logo is a panda.
4 - He likes pandas because he doesn't know they're herbivores :3
5 - Israfel thinks he's the coolest kid on the block, but not-so-deep down inside he's a nerd who likes things like marshmallow fluff sandwiches and puppies that fall all over themselves.
6 - I'm so making this all up as I go along, and no one can stop me X)
7 - Israfel is in desperate need of a buddy, whom I have not created T__T
8 - Israfel accepts the name "Issy." But only 'cause *kaya-kioko says so

About the image itself: the best thing for me to do would be to make another picture with a character facing the other way, to make up for the way my head has tended to drift towards the left at a 45º angle the whole time I've been working on this >¦D; (But I'm too lazy ;__; ) I always wanted to draw some goofy picture with that hand pose, had tried it before, and finally decided to keep it this time; and that is the riveting story of my inspiration. *___* Ignore scary flaws plz, Marla is but a lowly humanoid! X( Lineart done in OPENCANVAS 3.03 PLUS and CGing done in ADOBE PHOTOSHOP 7.0. For the love of all things sweet, please read that bold part and don't ask me what I used!

Edit: Oh, you heartless people and your innocent Spike Spiegel remarks; I haven't watched Cowboy Bebop in centuries and now I WANT TO but I don't have it >(;;

********Edit 2: PLEASE READ~ this journal in relation to anyone who may start to think I've omgcopied Spike Spiegel; 'cause like, I haven't *__* [link]

I have NOT seen the ending of Cowboy Bebop, and had no idea about the whole "bang" thing--I'm sorry if it looks like I've ripped it off, but I like to think I have more sense than that X3;
