Description
I gave up on initial idea to paint a character or monsters into this background as I felt it'd take away too much of the castle.So instead I sat down, adding more details to it and here is the result.
Without giving too much clues, I wanted to give it a bit of evil feel,, that something lethal and perhaps undead was living inside the castle seen here.
Painted over several evenings, size reduced alot, no reference used.
Ask for permission before using this image for any reason.
Photoshop and a wacom intuos 3 tablet used.

Beautifully made <3
I think that the monster would have made a nice touch, but you're right that it would probably have taken away the castles glory.
Reminds me o the game Primal for some reason X.x
Perhaps I've played Primal too much...
I could imagine your castle in a good thriller/fantasy movie. It even gives me writing inspiration. Fantastic work
