The Problem of Cool

Full view or I'll poke you with a flaming dinglehopper.

This is another doodle that got out of hand, but I'm such a skilled procrastinator... Anyway, I like Crowley and Aziraphale, flames, swords and epic poses a bit too much for my own good. >u>' I even like the tyre iron since the day I found one in the toolbox. I assume no-one eyer looked at it with such loving eyes, it must have been one of its happiest moments.

Let's say this is set before that last scene at the airbase, when the delivery man takes the sword away.(Why Crowley feels the need to use a cigarette lighter when he's holding a flaming sword is beyond me,btw. °_°) Except, except, it was August, wasn't it? But I distinctly remember coats being mentioned...Ah, well *shrugs*

And here's the meaningful part of this artist comment, in which I talk at length about the mysteries of the creative process, inspiration, expiration, perspiration and so on.

...No, not really, don't get alarmed.
I've realized I subconsciously give Crowley a nose that looks slightly like my old philosophy professor's (she had a nose that could stare you into submission, I used to have nightmares about that snakelike nostrils just...watching me, saying nothing çAç).
I've also realized that that if I'm not careful Aziraphale ends up looking like Alessandro Cecchi Paone* OAO' (while the major problem with Crowley is the tears I shed every time I have to cover his pretty eyes with sunglasses, it wrinkles the sheet...)

Anyway, this was fun, enjoy :'D

_{Pencil sketch+photoshop
Crowley and Aziraphale belong to Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett. It's distressing to see how often people seem to ignore this fact, like the artist who decorated the pavement of the St Michael's Church in Anacapri in the 18th century with a scene from Eden, for instance. Geez, some people have no respect.}
