Book characters from Robin McKinley's book, Sunshine - a wierd vampire story. Ink with digital coloring. I already know that their heads are too big ;) I used a James Jean comic cover as color insipiration.

Their heads look fine to me :-P
Love this! Greatest Sunshine fanart I have ever seen. This book is one of my favorites, but I was despairing of ever finding good fanart for it.

I think this is the best representation of Sun and Con I have ever seen. Gorgeous work :clap:

I love this. You're right, Sunshine was a bit weird. I really liked reading it, but after it was all over, I was like "what?"

There should be a sequal. The story simply seemed unfinished to me. Or maybe I need to read it again.

I can't believe it only JUST occurred to me to check here for fanart of this truly awesome book, despite that I've been in love with it for three years. :D

This is awesome. You really capture the characters and the overall tone of the tale.

I can't believe I am just checking for it now too. There is so little McKinley fan art here! Yay for Sunshine love :heart:

I know!! Did you find the others?? I have some of the best of them in my favorites, if you want to take a shortcut, haha. Maybe someday I'll get off my lazy ass and contribute to this tragically small fan collection. :heart:

I found maybe one or two- not nearly enough to spread the love :( but we can try. I will definately take a stroll through your faves to see if I missed any :D I'd love to see what you would contribute, maybe we can start a McKinley club on DA ^_^ see if anyone was interested.

I like how this isn't any specific scene from the book, yet it still captures the feeling of the story, particularly Sunshine and Con's relationship. It would make a wonderful cover-art for the book. I also like that your Con isn't ridiculously beautiful, as vampires are often portrayed. I don't think that he's supposed to be particularly gorgeous in the book; impressive, yes, but stunningly good-looking...I'm not so sure.
