This is the right half of this piece.

it's a bit of a sequel to "The Quote To Last a Lifetime"

It's hard to be two in the same when your other half is gone.

Base was a hand sketch, which I inked, and scanned into CS2 and cleaned up for use as line art. It took me 4 hours to get the two halves of the heart to line up perfectly. 3 Hours cleaning up the line art, and another 5 hours painting it.

The only thing that I outsourced for were a few brushpacks which were used on the top layer to help things blend, and darken the mood. Yes, I feel like an ass using someone elses brushes, but until I get a tablet it's the best I can do. I simply can't get the quality of linear detail I want using a mouse.

Brushpacks I used (all from deviantArt) The links to these brushes are easy to find in my Favorite's gallery:
GrungeBrushes3-KeRen-R
GrungeBrushes5-KeRen-R
Stock Cracks-Anodyne
Shiny Little Brushes

Program: Photoshop CS2
Time: 9-10 hours
