Roses in May

"And love itself is just as innocent as roses in may
nothing drives it away
but love itself is just as brief as a candle in the wind
it is pure white
just like sin"

It's for the Class collab. I tried doing lineart again, but this time with Photoshop.
I had no idea how to do the hair simple looking, but still realistic. So I just added less shading than usually.

I loved the concpet of the collab, because it makes images look very Sin City-ish, and very elegant. So I tried adding that noir feel to the vexel.

I hope Marleen likes it, because she's the one that inspired this whole thing ;P
