Description

Valentine is really quite nice most of the time, I promise. XD I can feel your skepticism from here.

An illustration from the RP Atroquine and I just finished, this is more towards the end of the encounter.

Basically, Valentine found out about the rabid dog Ares was keeping as a pet on the outskirts of the junkyard. I tried to tell a lot by showing very little, and leaving the grisly details to your imagination. I didn't want to get too gory. XD I found this interesting because the expressions would have been entirely different had it been any other two characters. But here we have Ares' trademark >:[ face, and Valentine's dead shark eyes.

...And for being such a fastidiously clean white dog, I noticed Valentine seems to have a hard time NOT getting blood everywhere? Weirdo.

P.S. I love Ares' scruffiness. <3

            Valentine was not in a good mood. White paws briskly padded through the drebis in the large dog’s path, his tail whipped behind him with an irritated air. He had heard rumors of a peculiar thing that might be afoot in the junkyard, something that -if it was true- had to be seen to immediately. Valentine had heard vague stories about a sick dog, a rabid dog possibly, in the junkyard that had been kept there for some unknown purpose. He knew just enough to know that he needed to see it for himself to evaluate the threat, and that it had something to do with the dog known as Ares. He never spoke with Ares personally, but was making a point to know every dog in the junkyard by name. He recognized the foxhound mix from a di

Nice little composition here! I really like how you didn't show the actual gore, it reminds me of the shower scene in the infmous Psycho, where the character's wound is never actually shown explicitly but the way the camera is used makes the scene feel extremely scary and dismal. I also love the white atmosphere around them, it really plays into the idea that the character is removing something of "evil" - really nice work!
