I really adore Thirty Seconds To Mars - for the longest time now, I've wanted to do an illustration for each of their songs. They all have such individual power and meaning to them, and that's something I really respect.
There's a little symbolism in this one, in a weird way. Most of it feels really personal, so I won't go into oodles of detail, but - if you have a theory then it's welcome, lol.
Susi's crying here because at the same time she really wants to attack somebody, but part of her ... doesn't want to. Although her body language -would- tell you differently - to me it has this kinda predatory edge to it.
Her shirt says "Resistance" due to my love of the newest Terminator movies. The earlier ones I don't care for; but Christian Bale is one of my favourite actors so there y'go. It's also why it has that funny symbol on the sleeve [drawn entirely from memory so I probably fucked it up].
The parts I'm most pleased with are her face; that manic smile was challenging, to say the least. xD And her eyes .. I wanted them to be expressive.
Her pose, especially the upper body; the arms kinda shaped themselves to be honest, and the hands made me squee. xD I'm one of those people that can be okay-ish with drawing hands one minute, and then crap again the next.
Her legs and her boots came out nice. <3 I just ... should've added some more detail to those pants, I think.

I won't suffer, be broken, get tired, or wasted
Surrender to nothing, or give up what I
Started and stopped it, from end to beginning
A new day is coming, and I am finally free

Run away, run away, I'll attack
Run away, run away, go chase yourself
Run away, run away, now I'll attack
I'll attack, I'll attack...

I would have kept you, forever, but we had to sever
It ended for both of us, faster than a
Kill off this thinking, it's starting to sink in
I'm losing control now, and without you I can finally see

Run away, run away, I'll attack
Run away, run away, go chase yourself
Run away, run away, now I'll attack
I'll attack, I'll attack....

Your promises, they look like lies
Your honesty, like a back that hides a knife
I promise you, promise you
I promise you, promise you
And I am finally free

Run away, run away, I'll attack
Run away, run away, go chase yourself
Run away, run away, now I'll attack
I'll attack, I'll attack, I will attack

Run away, I'll attack, I will attack
Run away, I'll attack, I will attack

Run away, run away, I'll attack I'll attack
I'll attack....

Your promises
promises, promises
I promise you
promise you
I promise you
promise you, promise you...
