Re-Scanned December 5th 2009 ^^!

By some unknow reason for me, each time I draw Alex & Benji, they look pretty away from the last ones, especially from their original desing. Anywaya that's sometimes I hate sometimes... but mostly I like... because here they look exactly the way I conceived them in my mind... or really close to XD! I still can't believe I reach this sort of manga-style... When I saw it finished I though WTF! This is Awesome! and then I said At least I did It!

Honestly, I always wanted to draw like this... I really enjoyed doin' it... and still enjoy viewin' it XD! They look pretty furrier than my other Alex & Benji's illustrations. Characters change a lot each time i draw them, but I decide that this's the final conception of them... so, that means no more clothes or accesories changes on their bodies!
And yes... I always wanted Benji wearin' a black arm-ripped T-Shirt under his red coat XD!

I've to say during the last year's months I dedicated myself into explore art tecniques, tutorials and tips for became better and better along my illustrations. I found lots of them, pretty useful by the way, on Dibujando.Net [link] XD! I read also a few books about human body illustration, clothes desing, backgrounds, etc... you know, all that stuff that's pretty neccessary to know for become a great artist and make great arts!
Butch Hartman's style's still my pretty , but I wanna make a realist one with Alex & Benji's... or at least, try to get it XD!

Well, about this picture title... I originally wanted to call it "Stronger Than Fiction" XD! Have you ever seen the Stranger Than Fiction movie? I did, and really loved it... The title was supposed to be a sort of crossover, making reference about my life's love story... Why? Well...

As many people who knows me knows, I created Alex & Benji's concept in order to release my soul of the deep sadness I used to feel by being alone in a society that always teach me that homosexuality is "the wrong choice" T T That made me feel guilty a lot of times with myself, accordin' to my sexuality. I think it's horrible that lot of people in the world've to hide and quit their love dreams just because the outside says that's wrong to express it...
I live accordin' to those ideas during all my teenage's years... Finally, I ask me the ony question that makes me feel fine with myself: Am I directly hurting or making bad to someone with my decision? The answer was pretty easy... just NO! I think It's worse when people kill themselves in stupid wars about some reason they neither know... True Love is not bad in any of its ways!
When I started to understand that and feel fine with the complety integrity of what I am, I really started to live! Few months ago, then I created Alex & Benji... I meet a guy who thinks exactly like me... called Alexander! Yes, Alexander! Big Surprise... even for me! We love each other and well, f*ck off what other would think... I'm just bringing my entire soul for someone, to only makes him feel happy and beloved... What's wrong with that? I think that nothing...

Well, I decided to make this like a gift for him, by makin' me feel the happiest guy on the earth XD! And call it "There's Something About You"... Life is so misterious sometimes XD!

I just say this to all of you: If you really know and feel, even bein' straight, gay, lesbian or whatever, that you love somebody and just wanna give that person the precious gift of be loved... and I'm talkin' about real love, the one that goes far away of just've sex... the one who make you feel confortable and sure of yourself, without any intention of hurt someone... Just Fight 4 It And Don't Be Worried About What Others Thinks! You're Not Makin' Anything Wrong! You've All The Rights To Do It!
