Jarlaxle and Artemis Entreri (c) R.A. Salvatore
(For those who don't know, the scruffy human is Entreri, and the drow who dresses like a cross between a pirate and a pimp is Jarlaxle)

...
"What do you you see when you look out there?"Jarlaxle asked. "Wasted potential? Barrenness where there should be fertility? Death where there should be life?"

"Reality," Artemis Entreri answered with cold finality.

(Promise of the Witch King pg. 124)
...

Meh. >_<

Due to all the wonderful feedback I've gotten on my first pic of Artemis, I decided to work on this, though I'm afraid I'm a little disappointed with how it turned out. Maybe it had something to do with Photoshop crashing on me every two minutes... -__-; I dunno... what do you guys think?

Ah well, at least Jarlaxle was a... truly unique drawing experience. I was both somewhat amused and vaguely horrified when I realized that that monstrosity on his head was the first hat I've ever painted. Hoo-boy...

Uh... Anyway, I'm also toying with the idea of drawing some goofy comics with these two to make up for my fail-age on this pic. Any ideas? :XD:

Nicely done! It's actually rather hard to find some good art these guys. xP

Thanks!! And I agree. It's one of the reasons why I wanted to paint them. I have another piece of Artemis that I think is much better, if you're interested.

Love this. The background is what I had in mind when I was reading it, lol. I think that you depicted the expression really well.

Thanks for saying that! For some reason I just don't feel that happy with this painting, but it happens. :shrug:

Oh my! You made Jarlaxle look so.... AMAZING! xD Mind if I use this as a cosplay base? Out of all the Jarlaxle art this is one of the best.

Now all I need is Dinin. =3=
