And now for a pic I had no idea I was even going to end up with

**update:** Apparently I get too easily fascinated by filter effects on image editing programs to realize that I've forgotten small details. For this, that important detail was the clue that Myaku's indeed wearing clothes in this pic. Soon after I uploaded this thinking "gawd this looks cool" my friend kindly pointed out to me that it looked awfully smooth to be wearing clothes. So now I've added the lines indicating that he's wearing pants/his sash-belt. xD (Evidently he still doesn't have a shirt, though. I couldn't add sleeve/vest lines and still make it look good. xD)

**update 2:**
I changed the file. I actually made this version in Photoshop at school and liked it much better than the other version. xD

Anyways, little story behind this (just as there is behind all my pics xD)
For a long time now, The River Sings by Enya has inspired me to make a pic of both Ranmyaku and his mysterious counterpart, Ranmeikyu.
For the first couple stanzas of the song:

I can picture the dark form of Ranmeikyu slinking about,

and for the second stanza:

I can see the silhouette of Ranmyaku himself pouncing out into the scene.

So I drew the silhouettes and have them saved to my comp, and I'm hoping to have a full pic uploaded by the middle of the week. But no-one ever knows with me. x3x;

Anyways, I planned to put the two silhouettes together into one pic and add some background effects and the lyrics to make it all prettifuls. :3

But, just out of curiosity, I finished outlining this silhouette, filled it in with dark brown, and decided to add a gradient to the background.
Then I found a fun little filter called neon glow that made the edges look purely awesome and I now have it uploaded.

And yes I actually drew this, I'm just amazed as you are. o_O
I've never been able to draw decent poses...I guess having Enya and random African music playing in the background helped inspire me more.
