--This is old, but... well, I haven't uploaded it here yet...--

umm, this strangely enough was done for a computers class assignment. . . The assignment was open-- just to do a portrait of someone with multiple layers in Photoshop. . . I of course had to ask, "Does it have to be a real person?" And thus, this image was born. . . I like to stretch the boundaries of assignments, mwahah.

So, yeah. It's L with a onimous Light and Ryuk in the background. They're supposed to sort of "be there and not be there" at the same time. . . And then, of course, there's the giant pile of sweets in the foreground. It was sort of fun, yet agonizing to paint all those.

I wanted to called this "The Obsessions of L" but some yaoi fangirls might take that the wrong way, lol. (Sweets and tracking down Kira are L's obsessions)
