Have a little mercy, Mars.

Well, I'm bored. And obsessed. Obsessed with a character I came up with named Mars, not a wholly original name, so sue me...no, DON'T really do it. It's...a nickname. Gods, I seem to love nicknames.<br />
<br />
The picture has this whole story behind it...well, not whole story, more like a theme...or something to it. It's mainly about this god named Mars. LOL And how he basically gets picked to be the heir of Paradise (for some reason I had this massive bias against calling it Heaven...? I'm a dweeb). It's basically heaven, except gods and angels live pretty much as equals and the surroundings are more human than all that cloud and...whatever talk. For some reason the predocessor picked him out of everyone right? So, what the hell choice does he have but to accept? There is, however, of course, a catch. Being a god of conflict, as well as balance, it's apparent that he needs to be tweaked. He has no...vehemence at all for war. So, he gets, what I call throughout the story "thrown down onto the dirt." In other words, BAM, he gets rocketed down to Earth where he has to establish followers but also to understand exactly what it's like to be mortal...yadda, yadda, yadda. He focuses his attention on a little girl named Mercy, who more or less, already believes in his existence because of her older sister who has a love for astronomy and the mythology behind the names of the planets. Now, Mercy helps him to understand...well, mercy. LOL And saves him from an early, I use the word "early" loosely, death in Paradise because she believes and knows that he's real and he, in turn, can save Paradise and watch over It and protect It as well as Earth and all the other locations of life on the plain that Earth resides in...it's...a work in progress. LOL I love Mars. And lately I've been particularly obsessed with the night sky, with the space beyond our sky and...<br />

Hmm, his hair isn't usually so flat, it's the heavy atmosphere of Earth, note how I didn't call it gravity. Maybe I should...post up that first chapter of it, so that I don't have to bloody explain everything...{keels over and dies} Mmm, I also need to work on his eyes. I know exactly how I want them, but for some reason I alternate between being able to draw them right and not...this is...mostly one of those not times. LOL {shrug} I'll probably only draw him while I'm writing the story and then afterwards, I'll probably just quit drawing him and...not, that wouldn't happen either. LOL {shrug} <br />

THANKS FOR LOOKING!
