Description
Your birthright was to die.
More fateful words spoken, this time by a despot King, with Loki facing eternal condemnation without a proper trial or simplest defence, just merciless abandonment handed down by a cruel hypocrite.
Another emotive piece from recent promo shots, keeping in style with the previous more natural & sharper detailing of textures & finer hair, along with extra highlighting.
Since the original shot was cut off at the top, I made the effort to fill it in, & recreated the background roughly with a solitary light spot, being symbolic of the one soul soon to be ripped from his heart. Giving him green eyes again with more black-brown brows rather than pure black & fine lines, I added finer white hairs this time for higher contrast rather than only sharpen the black hair to give it a highlights effect to add an extra layer of texture & fullness. I also stippled the skin lightly to achieve a more natural look, unlike previous pieces looking more porcelain. Adding textures to the bits of outfit/armour, I roughly recreated the collar & runes depicted on it.

Thank you kindly, & for all the faves & watch! 
Well, I don't think it has anything to do with approaching things differently on or offline, what people say or do remains in essence the same, but, Odin is a hypocrite in regards to how disparately he treats his sons. Telling Loki never to see his mother again, knowing that is the one thing he can hurt him with, that's emotional trauma deliberately inflicted on him right there, where he abandons him to eternity isolated away from her. The fact that she still visited him, is irrelevant to Odin's double standards & cruel words.
Hope that helps.

Absolutely not. Thank you. Your "kindly" and " " cannot even hope to mirror my reaction when I realised what it actually means to discover you... You've done some artworks that are Peter Jackson-size valuable. Words cannot contain it, or at least not in my petty use. You are a skilled artist and your source of inspiration, if we may call him so... how can I put it, we needed you there. Because Tom Hiddleston exists and Fine art exists, we all felt someone has to be out somewhere. It was you. May I just pour some of the ancient mead in this crystal cup for you to drink. Hail to thee!
...Honestly though, I'm so thankful you are what you are and do what you do Total bravo for what you've done so far! And better than the best of wishes for lies ahead.
--- Okay, I know what I'm doing here should cease for the sake of a conversation I started myself, but you are in for some gratefulness from all of us. I mean, we were all astounded, not just me. I feel like you're the right person to ask for guidance.
Look, Loki-wise, do you actually think he would allow Odin, at that point, to hurt him? Loki manipulates everyone's behaviour, he is, like Tom said, "an off- the-rails psychopathic agent of chaos". Even in 2011 Thor, when he has that fight with Odin. Loki is and has been described as clearly reserved. And next to Thor, that trait really gets hard to omit. And he's acting so much. Remember the "You are incapable of sincerity!", "silver tongue", "master of magic", etc. When the truth actually struck him, supposing he was saving face until he got Odin's confirmation, as would be apparent, say, in the film, he was still impeccably composed. It just flows from his playfulness that he doesn't have a glimmer of appreciation for anything's importance, lest he didn't bestow it himself, so, well, obviously he's lashing out at Odin, but when Odin starts giving signs something's not working, he not only ignores it, but starts shouting nasty. You know, when Thor was doing that, he was the "bratty space god", but when Loki does that, he's the victim?
And, yeah, I'm not ignoring the obvious. It's just, the reason he's so hurt is because he learns he cannot be part of Asgard and all this, he'll never blend in, 'cuz he has different blood. He might feel like the role of an impostor has been actually forced on him. But how is it Thor learns to not to "think himself above others" and Loki's well off with being "always so perceptive about everyone else but himself"? Does he even look like he's trying to understand the others? He asks Odin, Frigga, even Thor, sure, but he still sees it his way and in the Avengers, he actually uses "his parentage" as a reason to fight and disagree with Thor.
I'm trying to say that, in the scene where Odin confesses to Loki, he doesn't seem 100% natural. Of course, the first part is... fine, I guess, by everyone's standards, but the "why you favoured Thor all this time" is said on a very wicked tone. Not like he's crying for justice, more like shouting insults. The whole "I remember a shadow" thing is, like, totally his own original point of view, don't you agree? Remember what his dear Frigga said, "kept it a secret so that you wouldn't feel different". No one planned he should feel different and be damaged by it. He's holding on it. Like he felt different and now he has a reason to.
And boom! Let's distort reality. I mean, it's wonderful, his journey to self-discovery, but by now it should be clear, he's on the wrong track. And he's strong, and willful... and deliciously so. So I don't complain. But to me, Odin's behaviour, Frigga's, Thor's - they apply a law that Loki refuses to abide by and it's just a very classic case of cross purposes. And, first of all, nobody holds a grudge on Loki. The whole "I wish I could trust you"thing. Why, Thor managed to almost do worst than Loki in the Avengers, where the latter gladly marches toward the title of war criminal, in his very first film. And he's striped of his powers as a god, which Loki never loosed. And his metanoia happens and bam! Mjolnir's back in his hands. I never doubted the same would have happened to Loki, had he been more willing.
But that's the whole thing. He hadn't. Everything that happens in the films, happens because he wanted them to. Even when he was defeated; the dialogue with Coulson is point-blank: "You're gonna lose. - You lack conviction."
To me, that's crazy. So I hope you understand, why it's so perplexing to see people discussing his sensibility. Like what you say, "cruel words". I'm confused by that. He scoffs at the word "sentiment" in moments of extreme intimacy, and yet I have a feeling that you are seeing something that I don't, to my misfortune actually.
So, you know, it does help! And I am your most-assuredly indebted

Well then, I can't possibly persist in making a fuss, really. It's anyway such a trivial subject... Loki's character study can wait; I'll be waiting for your reply. So, please, do take your whole, sweet time
Happy Holidays as well, dear!

Well, my favourite scene...But that Odin will turn out to be such an hypocrit that was surprise. It was visible he has quite short temper, but this?
Besides somebody that old as him shouldn't los nerve so easily, so only explanation is he is simply hypocritical.

Yeah, Odin's 'true face' suddenly showing was a bit of a shock, he should indeed be much 'wiser' than than, but it only proved Loki correct, he was just a stolen relic he could use, & when Loki didn't play along anymore or seemed a threat to his throne, the dungeons it is.
Thanks for faving!

Np.I faved more than gladly.
After TDW I just think: Well, Odin, are you sure Thor isn't the adopted one?Or might be both of your children adopted?
You nailed it. Even if Odin wouldn't have ulterior motives or his intentions were partly sincere Loki will never believe it now. But it's unlikely he hasn't them considering Loki seemed to be ignored mostly till he did something other's disapproved of.
Or there is possibility Odin just didn't want to put up with Loki and didn't want to ask questions or think about whole issue more, so he rather naively believed that problems which are out of his sight can somehow solve themself or stop exist.
Well, Asgard tends to put dangerous stuff in to boxes...and it doesn't work very well. But this doesn't contradict the ulterior motives theory, but proves it even more.Or/and proves Odin's weakness in eddition.
Anyway, I wish you happy New Year...I'm little late with it, but still

Agree/d. Odin didn't want a mirror held up, his hypocrisy exposed & Loki a threat to his reign, while Thor was a compliant pawn, before he finally saw Odin's true face & liberated Loki from his shackles to unite against him & save Asgard from a tired monarch.
Well, let's see if Loki will pop up in Ultron. And there will be a new trailer today.

It's good to see Thor finally begins to use his own brain and open his eyes.He kind of lived in happy sunny fairy land before.
Yes! Asgard was in dire need of new management! I would like to now what Loki did with Odin...but it definitely saved Thor a lot of trouble up on his arrival back to Asgard.I can imagine how Odin would have been pissed off by Thor's decision and solution of problems with dark elves.

Thor certainly lived in a fantasy world, & now has to deal with an even greater enemy than Dark Elves getting back at Odin for his own father having messed with them, & The Aether.
Well, according to Taylor (or Feige, can't remember) Loki stashed Odin away somewhere (once he (somehow) overpowered him as the Einherjar reporting 'Loki's body'), in order to tell him something only Odin & Thor would know, so he could pose convincingly as Odin to send Thor on his merry willingly-dethroned way. So he's certainly still alive, or in another Odinsleep, & unharmed.
Well as expected, no Loki in the new trailer, but as I said, he JUST might be in a credit scene, tho no one 'really' confirmed it, officially. Only that he'll be in TR for certain, & maybe Infinity Wars.

Well, Odin's plan to tech Thor a lesson backfired, slightly
I definitely don't envy Thor his current situation. Especially because he has no clue yet here's a situation at all and if he does I doubt he know how serious it's going to become.
... Dark Elves getting back at Odin for his own father having messed with them, & The Aether....It seems Odin's father also didn't know how to clean up his own mess-it runs in the family
Hmmm, that's new information for me. So Odin lives...Hmmm...It was not exactly wise from Loki to let Odin live-or at least in cause Loki would like to be king for long or value his health much. If Odin will be freed, he will not care to consider the fact Loki didn't kill him, despite it tells a lot about Loki.But it's not exactly surprising for multiple reasons. 1)If loki would have wanted him dead he would already be during Thor1. 2)It seems Loki has indention to self-sabotage himself
I guess it proves Loki isn't "evil" power-hungry individual but he enjoys being pain in neck or he's trying to prove himself something, or have a plan we have no clue about or what ever.
he wasn't
I can't vait to see this post credit scene.I alwas loved them but now even more.
Damn, why they can't make movies quicklier XD This is only occasion I appreciate time is running so quickly

Alas indeed, a yr is average for films, some take even longer to make. BUT, May is around the corner! And let's hope he IS in it, or else many ppl will spit feathers. 
Agreed, Loki is far too clever to do away with Odin, he's more useful to him alive. As seen. Self-sabotage might be rectified, but once someone's dead & useless, that's it, no fixing that. Of course Loki isn't evil, or power-hungry, he just plays all sides & seizes opportunities, even bad ones. Anything works for him. For whatever reason takes his fancy. That's what makes him so much more intriguing & unpredictable, you indeed have no clue what he's up to, & none of it neither good nor bad. It's just 'Loki'.
Yeah, the House of Odin is not all that golden & shiny & righteous & fair as first believed & presented, & the dark elf skeletons or otherwise in the closet have all come pouring out &
back to life, haunting Odin for a while longer. He might as well be in Odinsleep to miss it all, & what Bor set in motion.
And true, I doubt Thor & Co have any ideas how BAD this is gonna be, with ULtron they have a truly terrifying & formidable foe on their hands, intent on destroying them all, not a very reluctant god forced to invade a city with aliens that are as useless as his words of promise to retrieve the blue cube for them he never wanted to surrender.

Indeed. Pain & pride, & you will pay for it all, Odin.

Oh I know, I hate that scene, all chained up like a wild animal. Though I do love his sarcasm & he looks so serene & beautiful there. But Odin was cruel to even do this, say what he did & not even grant him his own name anymore, simply condemn him without a trial, & then basically throw him away like the stolen relic he ALWAYS was. Thanks for faving!

I'm none too crazy about mythical Odin, but Marvel's Odin is truly the father from hell. *glares at him* If Loki's a bit unbalanced, I'd say one need only look to Odin for the cause....
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Quite. At the end of the day it comes down to Odin's big fat lie & his enablers, & Thor & his friends obvious bullying him on top for no doubt ages, as far as the films are concerned. So yeah, Odin's 'A+' parenting failure is THE major factor in it all.

Almost makes you want to see an older Loki go back in time and rescue his younger self....

Quite. Like in the recent comics to some degree, though it's the younger who visits the older. There're several versions (of him) now.

When you look at those sad, eyes . . . . you just can't help but think that face looks like a rejected puppy in a cold, cold blizzard . . . being told that his destiny was to die . . . by his own dad . . . .
