Artist's Comments

This is Acedia, the youngest of the 7 deadly sin sisters. She's often despised by her siblings and was thought to be adopted because of her standoffish attitude, but she never cared about what they think... never cared about anything at all. Her only interests are finding a nice place to idle the time with, sprawling out with her pets the procastinators, waiting for her eyes to close by themselves and on very rare occassions "playing" with Gula (gluttony) on the seesaw. Yeah, she hardly moves because her laziness that anchored her to stupor is heavier than all the sin sisters' weights combined.

Her greatest power lies on her ability to summon a procrastinator, a winged timepiece that steals a person's sense of time, and her heavy steps that send ripples of stupor stunning the suffering victim into a state of eternal laziness.

NOTE: To my friends and watchers, I know this will be very new to your eyes but yes I can also do cartoons. This was a coloring exercise I did 2 years ago when I was in Japan, during breaks from installing air conditioners.:D

While waiting for my Intuos 4 to arrive, I will be uploading some colored illustrations in preparation for the last 2 characters that I have yet to draw using my very first tablet. This will be the first of the 5 deadly sin sisters that I had already drawn.

I've seen the seven deadly sins represented in various forms here on DA countless times, & yet SLOTH by ~bjornik still manages to wow me in pretty much every conceivable way! Excellent characters with a unique & clever story, a lovely mix of macabre & humorous elements, a perfect use of a dark & bluish color scheme, & mountains of amazing detail all collide in one glorious crash of awesomeness to create one truly sinfully delicious delight! Bravo! (Suggested by *SlyDante and Featured by ^Thiefoworld)

This is really nice, I love the style you did it in. All the tidbits, like the drool and her weight being heavier than her sister's, are great for storytelling. Lovely work!
:iconso-said-the-glassman:
well it came out beautifully! :)
:iconpoint2point:
Really good atmosphere ! Waiting for more about that story and the other four deadly sin sisters ^-^

It's true that it seems different from your style, but nice job on this. I really like the concept and the colors!
