So I got it in my head this morning to draw this scene. Where Valentine tells Sebastian why his mother is gone. I wanted it to be authentic so I got @CassieClare to write the dialog! 

So.. totally canon scene right here. This is how it went down. 

aka. holy crap Valentine could you be a worse father?

Maureen Johnson: THE RUNAWAY QUEEN IS ON THE LOOSE!

maureenjohnsonbooks:

Friends, I am excited. As you may know, I have been working on a series called THE BANE CHRONICLES, based on Cassie Clare’s books—specifically, on the adventures of Magnus Bane.

My first offering in the series, THE RUNAWAY QUEEN, is NOW OUT.

It has everything a story really requires:…

What can I say? It was my favorite scene.

Ahh the matter of my masks!
Here is the thing. I’m pleased with my appearance. I like to think I have a pretty good face, even if I’m not a supermodel. But that’s not really the issue. I never liked the idea of plastering my face on the internet. I like the anonymity of wearing a mask and leaving everyone wondering what I look like, rather than giving them a real face to see. (If you look at my photo in the Beautiful Creatures manga dust jacket, I’m wearing the mask there too.) 
So I searched and searched and selected several masks and finally decided on the rat face! I decided that will be my face on the internet. I think it’s kind of funky and a little creepy and fun. 
In the end I always felt like how I look shouldn’t matter. My art is what I’m putting out there, and that’s what I want people to look at. My artwork and not me. So I rather put on a mask and let people see me as another character. 
I mean, I’m not strict about it, there are a couple self portraits and things hanging around, but I like the idea of wearing masks!

Anonymous asked: I don't want to be rude or anything but may I ask how old you are? You look so young in the picture with the Idris hoodie, I somehow always thought you were 35 or something but look at those legs! haha

LOL!! OK several people have now asked me this so… 

I’m 26!

Mystery solved. 

((Do I give off a 35 vibe?!))

IT ARRIVED!!! YAY!!! 

My Idris University hoodie just arrived and I put it on immediately!

The quality is -very- nice. This isn’t cheaply made stuff. Also, for those wondering about sizes, this is a Medium that I’m wearing. (I am 5ft 4in and 115 pounds so that should give you some jumping off point for figuring your own size)

For the tutorial on how I ordered it, go here: LINK

Tutorial: Ordering a Shadowhunter Jacket!

Okay! I ordered an Idris University hoodie and other people were interested in how I did it. So… here is a little step-by-step mini tutorial on how I did it. I figure, if we order our hoodies with the same option, then it will look more like we all got our jackets from the same school! Yeah?

Yeah, okay!

Step 1) Go to MyLocker.net

Step 2) Under “Products” go to the “Sweatshirts and Fleece” tag

Step 3) Under “Ladies Sweatshirts & Fleece” I selected the “French Terry V-Neck Hoodie”. Press Customize Now! (Note: If you are a guy then there are lots of Men’s hoodies to select from too.) 

Step 4) In the popup you have to make some selections. I just selcted “Sports” and chose Hunting as the sport. But this part doesn’t really matter since you’re going to change all that anyway. 

Step 5) Writed in “IDRIS” as your school team/mascot. And for the colors, I choose black for the hoodie and white for the lettering. There are lots of options! But Black and white seemed best to me. 

Step 6) Here you can choose the logo that goes on the front. I chose the IDRIS 20(XXL)13 UNIVERSITY logo. On the right, you can change the sports selection earlier (which was hunting) and type in UNIVERSITY instead. 

Step 7) Now click on the “+Add Your Back Design” button. This is the one you customize yourself! Choose the shadowhunter family name you want, and whatever Number suits you! The back design I chose was the name above the number. The one where the name is sort of curved.

Step 8) And with that, you’re done! Just pick your size and make your order!

My hoodie will arrive today so once it does, I’ll take some pictures and let y’all know how the quality is. Hope that helps! Take pictures of your IDRIS UNIVERSITY sweaters too!!

I love the idea of candid photos of characters.
I meant to draw something more epic but I have a raging fever and headache so this will have to do~!
