Description FULL VIEW PLEASE!

yeeeehaw! This is what Jay Leno would look like if he grew out his hair

Anyways.....ANGEL OF DEATH! kick ass. 4th installment of my archangel series. Uber glompage goes to my brother for helping me design his outfit. A TRENCH COAT! lord, I would of NEVER thought of that my myself. Yea I definitely wanted this to be dark and all..CEMETERY-ish. But thou shall not fear the angel of death, for he is just doing his job. I hear he's one of the most gentlest angels out there, go figure

Azrael is only to be regarded as the final friend, the kind one to guide through the darkness and into the light of God's judgement.

If indeed there is such a thing as an àngel of death, it makes sense he would not be sinsiter or scary, but would be gentle, for indeed, `precious in the eyes of the Lord are the deaths of His saints`

Don`t mind the odd accents, my keyboard has gone french again...::kicks it:

Awesome pic, btw.

Azrael is no mere Filthy angel....
Azrael is a god! a God of light and wisdom!

excellent portrayal though minus the faux pas

Azrael is the gentlest of the angels. Very subtly powerful.

This is a very well done drawing. The wings are gorgeous and not over done. The background fits the character. Just very well done.

Aaaah, gorgeous. Poor Azrael, everybody gives him a bad rap because he's the Angel of Death and all, but you're right, he IS one of the gentlest. He'd have to be, to coax the souls to leave their bodies. I think you've portrayed him quite awesomely here. ^_^ I always see him with the cowl, but that's just me. Your interpretation is very creative.

Kudos to you for drawing him without the cowl, actually, since that's so standard. Good work.

Back-white hair and feminine face expression? Never got why angels must look like gays, but this one does it well

Good job here, I am really interested in any Biblical angel art...just like the concept. Checked the others, pretty cool stuff, keep it up.

I was under the impression that Gabriel was the angel of Death, and Azrael was the GUIDE to judgment. Still lovely, though!

Oops, forgot one last thing.

You obviously did your research. I commend on that also. For Azrael is "Forever putting down names in his Book of Life, and forever erasing them..."

Great job. Oh! And good idea with not adding fog. I personally think it would take away from the details (like on his boots).

Again, excellent job.

I've been doing a buttload of research for the series.....I can never find anything consistent. So, I just figured to accept the consistent inconsistency, add my own creativity to the angels and their design and keep what I know.

the fog thing........in a lot of my pieces people tell me I need fog. Well damn them! fog hides the detail I so fervently worked on! :B

Damn. Who'd have thought death would seem so appealing? I love what you did with the trench coat (kudos to your bro on that idea) and Azies wings. Very...noirish. Me gusta.
