Description Cover illustration for the Swedish translation of Andrew Davidson's fantastic book 'The Gargoyle'.

It is not a fantasy/horror novel, but the publisher wanted a 'G' in the shape of a gargoyle. So they turned to me.

I think this one will hit the Swedish book stores quite soon. I sincerely recommend it.

I've made a big mistake. I'm so sorry. I've search for gargoyle stock and your image game along. Thinking it was stock too I've used it in hereΒ sprsprsdigitalart.deviantart.c… . Credit you everywhere I posted the picture . If you want me to take away I understand. Just let me know

The rights to this image are owned by Norstedt publishing - A big Swedish book publisher. Any disputes of rights you must take with them. Personally, I don't see a problem with the way you have used parts of the artwork, but my opinion is of no importance in this case.

I don't own the copyright to this image. The copyright is owned by Norstedts (the Swedish publisher). So if this essay is to be pubished somehow you should ask them.

Exquisite. Your most convincing texture work and modeling of form yet, I think. And now you have me interested in that book!

Well, when you get paid properly you have some time to go into details.
Thanks, M0AI!

Why does that Gargoyle immediately make me think of "Demon's souls"? O.O

OH! OH! x3 Damn myself , now I have a request ,if you have the time of course. *is poor* It actually has to do with "Demon's Souls" and I'm not sure if you've played it , but there is a person in it called "Old King Allant" and , I was wondering if you could draw him , either as a portrait , or as a full wallpaper. ; Or whatever you want to do with him.

Hopefully something in this video inspires you, be sure to watch it in HD. [link] abMx8sGXE8

Sorry, Drudicta. I don't do illustrative or concept work unless I'm properly paid. If you want to make me and offer, please contact me through my email. Unless I can live on what I make, I'm usually not interested.
