Too..hot...man... *choke wheeze*

Sorry, now that I've got that out of my system...

So much detail! And the shading is outstanding, especially on the hair. The texture on the walls really makes for a very defined atmosphere, and the colors give it a cold look (he's definitely not in a warm and cozy place, huh?). The light shining off the sword is something that amazes me to no end, since I've never been able to draw metallic objects correctly to save my life. The only negative thing that I can manage to pick out of this is that the line of his pectorals seems to end a smidge too high - it might just be me, though, and lord knows I'm no expert on male anatomy. For me though, I would have put the ending line of the pecs just above or right at the line where the bands around his abdomen start.

Thanks for digging this one up. Keep in mind that I drew this two years ago and it was only an 8x10

The pose and the chair he is sitting in, it looks ALOT like Brandon Lee from The Crow.
Good work

I'm assuming that the model is Brandon Lee? Several years ago, I tried his pose, but had trouble with the perspective.
I like your character's clothing and the blues and reds reflected in them.

this picture reminds me oh so much of this huge brandon lee crow picture i used to have plastered over my wall. and in 7th grade, i even wrote a poem about it titled "dark angel." strange. anyway, yahriel is gorgeous. i love the gaze and the pose.

QuestingRaven In reply to aquariann [2004-07-12 14:17:22 +0000 UTC]

It was actually inspired by that same pic. I think I was in high-school when "The Crow" came out

Thanks for the wonderful comment

This is so beautiful... I love the colouring and the subtile shadows in the background. Beautiful man too. I'd do him....
Your title reminds me... have you ever read a trillogy called "The Dark Angel Trillogy" By Meridith Ann Pierce? It is an amasing trillogy and I put it in my Top Ten best books list (I read a lot so that means it is really good). If you havent read it I suggest you do.
Again... beautiful piece here.

katstockton In reply to QuestingRaven [2004-05-22 06:13:04 +0000 UTC]

You definately should. it is great. they usually sell it in the 'Teen' book section for some reason. It think it should be in the fantasy section, but i guess they put it in 'teen' because it is an easy read.

Random browsing here... I just go through different links and get lost. Then I saw this picture and HOLY SHIZNIT I HAD TO COMMENT. Err... yep. I want to keep him Naw, he's taken i'm sure. Very cool though, amazing work you have in your gallery. Which is why i'm shocked that you don't have boatloads of more pageviews. Merph... sometimes DA doesn't give the recognition some artists deserve. Keep it up
