Character time #3: Yin and Yang

Sigh... Sounds like Bush won -_-.

I feel like adding yet some people I like to draw (even though it's been a long time that I have) out of the spir of some moments: Yin and Yang

Yin and Yang are consciences. Basically to make fun of those classic situtations when somebody starts taking to a mini angel and devil version of themself trying to figure out what to do. Yin is the angel, Yang is the devil. Their names originated from the Chinese symbol, obviously. Which basically means good and evil is in everyone. Fitting name for a conscience..

On of the best things I like about them though is the overall interaction between them. I mean, nothing like the old fasion "good verus evil" conflict, only takened to more humorful ways. Actually the "comic" I had plan to make for them was probably gonna be the only thing that I was going to stay comical. Most of the things I'm going to do aren't going to be very.. um... happy go lucky. But then I also recently thought up some other things. Some which might get rid of my comical rating, so meh.

Anyways, to get a better outlook. Yin is the logical careful one. Not so big on the justice/rightfulness things, but as long as other people can benefit from it. More philosophical than anything else. However he can get a pretty nasty temper if provoked hard enough.

And then there's Yang. Yang isn't afraid to speak his mind, no matter how blunt and cruel it may be. Much more laid back compared to Yin, and pretty much the opposite of him. Yang is pretty much out for fun and doesn't care if people get hurt from it. Also he likes to manipulate people quite a bit. He just tells things how they are, immoral or not.

I can't really say which one I like more. They both have their ups are downs. I'm still debating on if they should be a comic or not. For now though, they are just slapstick drawings. Whenever I'm down and need to think of something witty, just draw Yin beating the crap out of Yang, it always works, lol. Also random note, they are actually brothers. Twins to be exact. However despite maturity, Yang is really the oldest.
