For this year's first personal project, how about some anguish and destruction and loss of innocence?

Yeah, I know next to nothing about NGE, which is something to say after I've watched the entire anime and all the movies that were released after it, yet my grasp on the details is pretty lose. I took it as Hideaki Anno's pet project about PTSD, loss of innocence, loss of one's soul, many losses are portrayed in this story really. I did enjoy it for what it was, but then I learned that he put his own mental health on the balance to get this done, and quite frankly I grew a sort of antagonism towards him. Nevertheless, the show is good, and I recommend it to anyone with any mild interest in the anime.

So why did I really feel like drawing EVA Unit 02 for this week's project? Well you can blame Pat Stares At for it, because he's been Tweeting about the topic all week and he got me in the mood to draw some EVAs. And to be fair I should be thankful, because I wasn't planning on getting anything posted this week, but fuck it! Quick piece of this my favourite of the robots, and there we are.

I could see a possible series of paintings with different robots, not just NGE's. Might put a pin on that.

Please, let me know what you think of it in the comments. I appreciate each and every single one I receive.
