Here is an in progress look at one of several drawings that I am working on right now. This drawing when finished will be titled Buffy & Angel "Essence of Love". This drawing was commissioned by Bashipper and is the second in my Essence series of drawings. Like my previous drawing Buffy "Essence of the Slayer" this drawing will feature several portraits from various seasons of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. The drawing will feature portraits of Sarah Michelle Geller and David Borenanaz as Buffy and Angel and will highlight the various moments of their love as seen in the series. This scan shows the center top portrait and represents only a small portion of the entire drawing. This will be the largest of the portraits in the drawing. Here I have worked on establishing Buffy and Angel's likeness and have added white highlights to show depth. The sketch is still quite rough and will be refined a bit as the other portraits are added. As always constructive comments and criticism as welcomed and appreciated so please let me know what you think

Thanks for all of the awesome comments; your feedback means a great deal to me. Here is an update for the Buffy/ Angel essence drawing. In this scan I am representing the Becoming pt 2 scene when Buffy and Angel begin to fight and she ultimately kills him. The person who commissioned the drawing originally suggested using the scene from Becoming pt 2 where Buffy and Angel are in front of the statue; Angel with the sword in his chest and buffy crying. I decided not to do the sword in the chest scene instead, I decided to do the moment right before when Angelius is taunting Buffy and they first crossed swords. I liked the dynamic here better. This sketch is very rough and represents the lower left side of the drawing. When finished you will be able to see Angel’s smirk and evil grin; and the hurt in Buffy’s face as always constructive comments and criticisms are welcomed and appreciated so Please Buffy Fans let me know what you think ;D

The new addition is excellent! You really managed to capture the feeling of that particular scene. Well done!

Scotty This drawing is beautiful, even in these early stages i love the whole Bangel relationship. So full of love, yet doomed lol Tragic really You have captured their likeness' perfectly in the first image, and the second image is just as good, so dynamic yet screen accurate. beautiful what other scenes will you be adding? I dont want to interupt ure artistic flow, but i think this scene would work I think a good one, although not being a full body shot, would be the scene in erm, "Suprise"? When Buffy dreams about Angel and she goes out to reach him, and his hand turns to dust. i think that would work particularly well in the corner of the page. I think its a beautiful scene and would really add to the drawing. Just a suggestion Cant wait to see it finished, i think i will definately be buying a print of this beauty Wayne

Thanks so much for all the awesome feeback and words of encouragement; Your comments really mean a lot to me Scotty This drawing is beautiful, even in these early stages i love the whole Bangel relationship.

I think its a beautiful scene and would really add to the drawing. Just a suggestion Cant wait to see it finished, i think i will definately be buying a print of this beauty Wayne Thanks for the suggestion Wayne, I love the idea. If I can find a spot where it will work I just may use it. At this point I am not quite sure which or how many scenes will be in the drawing...I have a basic idea and I have a list of the favorite scenes that was picked by the commissioner of the drawing but as such I am letting the flow of the drawing decide which scenes will be included. Here is the next section of the drawing...unfortunately my memory escapes me at the moment and i am not sure which episode this scene is from exactly. It is the episode where Angel and Buffy fall into some water during a fight...afterwards they go back to his place all wet. Angel gives Buffy his shirt to wear ... I really liked the feeling of intimacy in this scene (Not to mention Buffy's roaming hands). When this section is finished the pair will be back lit in moonlight this scan represents the top right corner of the drawing as always constructive comments and criticisms are welcomed and appreciated so Please fellow Buffy fans let me know what you think

awesome work on the new addition Scotty I believe thats from the beginning of Suprise, when Buffy has the nightmare about Angel being stakes (from the image i posted too ) Im actually making a figure from the same episode at the moment buffys hair looks amazing, so much detail and they both look suitably sexy Even with Buffys cheeky hands ^^ Nice work Scotty, i bow down to you Wayne

Thanks again everyone for the encouragement and kind words. Here is the next update for the drawing. In this scan I have added a scene from the episode "The Prom" This scan represents the bottom center of the drawing Like the other sections this sketch is also in the very rough stage. As always constructive comments and criticisms are welcomed and appreciated so Please Buffy fans let me know what you think ;D

All of these are beautiful and convey the emotion of the scene wonderfully Scotty! As I have said many times before you have some incredible talent. I have not read every post...I just like the pictures so forgive me if you addressed this already. Are you going to include something from the Angel episode "I Will Remember You"? I think it would also be great to see them in front of the the grave from "Intervention" and a shot from End of Days/Chosen would round it out really nicely...showing them from the beginning to the end of their relationship.

Another great addition Scotty. And I also like Adam's suggestion as kissing scene from EoD/Chosen would be very suiting and a nice closure for the drawing.

Thanks again for all of the feedback...I appreciate the inspiration and perspective In this scan I have stitched all the pieces together so that you can see the layout as it is so far. As you can see I still need to add a few pieces to this puzzle, though at this time I am not sure exactly what those pieces will be. I know I am leaning toward using the snow scene from "Amends" and possibly a scene from "the Harvest" or "Prophesy Girl" but at this point I am undecided. I would also like to use the scene from "End Of Days" that Jinxieman suggested but I haven't been able to find a decent screen cap that will work; so I may have to abandon that idea. anyway here is the drawing thus far... As always constructive comments and criticisms are welcomed and appreciated so Please let me know what you think ;D

As the one who commissioned Scotty for this drawing, I am so totally excited about it. He is capturing their "Essence" perfectly in all he has done so far. I look forward to seeing the rest of the pictures he incorporates.
Scotty: In my last e-mail to you , a couple minutes ago, I said I would leave the rest of the pictures up to you, but I did forget my favourite scene ever, the "Ice Cream" scene from I Will Remember You. If you can make it work, I really would like that one in there somewhere, just to add a little "fun". Let me know.

Thanks again for all of the Awesome comments...Your feedback really means a lot to me ;D Here is the next section of the drawing. this section represents the infamous "Ice Cream" scene from the Angel episode "I Will Remember You". This scene was specifically requested by the commissioner of the drawing. This scene was a difficult one to layout due to the dark lighting of the scene and the position of Buffy and Angel as they lay in bed. The biggest problem I faced was how to make the blob of Ice cream on Angel's chest register as Ice cream and not something completely gross. I have to give many Thanks to MsBig who's Awesome custom of this scene helped give me a perspective in which to approach this scene. This scan represents the bottom right hand corner of the drawing. As always constructive comments and criticisms are welcomed and appreciated so Please let me know what you think ;D

Scotty, the latest addition is fantastic! That was a very intimate and optimistic moment in Buffy and Angel's relationship (even though she doesn't remembers it any longer) and basically fits perfectly with the rest. Kudos! ;D
