... hi. It's been a while, huh? *is sheepish*
For today's
davidxdavid Post-A-Day, here are some of my (rather poor) attempts at hand-drawn art for the theme Beyond American Idol. One is an AU and another is a non-Idol pairing~ They were both drawn with a Zebra permanent marker and cleaned up in Photoshop.

the back-cover blurb:
I PROMISE I'LL GET BETTER AND/OR STOP DOING THIS ಥ_ಥ

![]() ![]() | title: sharp-dressed man description: Covers in the style of doujinshi (Japanese fan comics). Because my drawing skills are epic fail, the doujinshi itself doesn't actually exist. (Cook/Archuleta) rating: G notes: The art style/design is inspired by Amato Amaro by Basso, with a paper texture from ![]() |
the back-cover blurb:
"you're in danger. run."CANNOT. RESIST. SUITS. *_*
david archuleta is his country’s secret diplomatic weapon. his friendly charm disarms even the most hard-boiled foreign dignitaries, and his success rate at closing deals puts the best smooth-talkers to shame.
however, his new assignment may be too much to handle! treaty negotiations have gone terribly wrong, and now he’s being threatened by a shadowy organization that will stop at nothing to stop him.
followed by danger and treachery at every turn, david can only rely on mr. cook, his handsome new bodyguard who may be more than meets the eye.
![]() | title: love is like kittens description: Obviously, in real life David wouldn't be doing something as boring as sleeping while in the presence of Jason Mraz. (Jason Mraz/David) rating: G notes: You should all check out the A Softer World strip I got the title from :3 I'd also like to apologize for Jason and David... not actually resembling Jason and David. |
I PROMISE I'LL GET BETTER AND/OR STOP DOING THIS ಥ_ಥ
