I was trying to compile my artworks for my showreel and found out that this work was not showcased anywhere else but Facebook, gah.
I did this back in August 2011, when the man said he wanted to do an art trade; he wanted Lavi from D-Gray-Man and I requested for 15! Lambo from Katekyo Hitman Reborn. It was also during this time when I got to listen to Bang Yongguk's "I Remember" featuring Yoseob and was captivated by the melody and the lyrics. So with this song on replay, I sketched Lavi looking depressed as oppose to his cheery self as often depicted in the anime (I'll be honest, I never watched D Gray-Man :P) and this pose came up.
This pictured can also be explained as his desire to be a Bookman but he's struggling to reach that goal while being so very attached to the Black Orders.

I like the texture work over his scarf! I'm always happy to see some grungier walls! Nice work on the positioning, I like the way the scarf occupies the space on the wall! Great work!

Thanks Bantam! Yeah for some strange reason I just prefer a more dirty, grunge/textured wallpaper compared to a clean palette. Glad you like it :D

It's been a while since I've seen a great grunge wallpaper! Great use of negative space here, and the scarf helps keep the composition from getting boring! Great work, man!

Thanks a lot Brosteb! Very much appreciated! I have the tendencies to NOT leave wallpaper too clean, and this fetishes for textures and grunges... and scarves :D
