Description I might do a painted version of this someday; who knows? I rather like it as-is, though, in the meantime. It gives me over-grandiose ideas of doing a series of angels. XD; I've also been trying lately to draw more action-oriented poses than has been my wont, and this is the inevitable result: wings go pretty nicely with just about anything, in my book, and I'm often too lazy to draw clothing. So, angels. ^____^


I'm hoping this doesn't get flagged for mature content... there's nothing showing, and it's not 'suggestive' in nature, so. >.>

Oh man, I am SUCH a fan of St. Michael the Archangel, and your art is BEAUTIFUL, so of course the logical combination of these is my sudden desire to beg you to paint this. XD;;;

This is utterly beautiful. I think that a series of angels would be sublime. I love the strength that radiates both from his face and the more muscular set of his body. You have summed up everything an Archangel should be; bold, brave and valiant. I would be suprised if this was considered "mature" content, it is anything but suggestive which as far as angels go would be the wrong direction, I think. Archangels are warriors in my mind and you have captured that warrior spirit perfectly.

This is a rather good sketch -- you manage to render him nude not naked, so it's a fairly respectful rendering as well.

This is so beautiful! I LOVE it! You should do a series of angels! I would love to see it! But if not at least you did Michael (he happens to be my favorite ^^) I really like the pose and the way you positioned his legs. Came out really nice!

For some reason his face reminds me of Dark Schnieder (The Bastard) lol I don't know why.. No offense intended- to you or Michael lol

Wonderful, the anatomy and pose are perfect and so realistic. Great job and yes, please continue your angel series idea...I adore angels and there is often too few pictures of them. Thanks so much and lovely work as always

Oh my god, he's beautiful.


Say Elandis, I don't suppose there's any chance you'd make a male-face tutorial? You have really nice proportions, and features (omg, the eyes you draw~), and it would be superb to learn how you construct them and think of them in 3D (you clearly don't just draw memorised features -- there's actual understanding in there).

Overall, a really great sketch.

There's only one thing that bothers me... no matter how many times I look at him , his left eye(the one on the right of the picture) keeps playing tricks on me. One moment it looks correct, the next it seems to be larger and almost cat-like, giving an almost wall-eyed effect. It's probably something about the line width or maybe I'm just weird.

If you did a colored version I know that would clear it up.

Ah, I believe you're right about that. It's a tendency I have in sketches, so no, it's not a trick of your eyes. If I do a colored version, it'll definitely get fixed. Thank you! ^^

I have the same problem with trying new poses... I like the body too much to put clothes on them, so I throw on some wings and voila!

The dynamic pose works well

silvertales [2009-08-07 18:55:26 +0000 UTC]

Great linework! I agree, seeing him finished would be very cool, but there is something impressively raw about him this way. Yay for mid-action poses!

Nekky angels nicely rounds out your little cornucopia of bishie. Lovely! Can't wait to see the finished version!

That would be so cool to do a series of angels.

I like how you did the pose too. It's like he's about to fly right at you.

Beautiful!!

It shouldn't be counted as mature, like you said there's nothing showing so...
