Long live Ancient Rome!
Now we hunger for flesh like our wolf mother
and tear through towns like no other.
We bring death with our bite and more rise from their graves at night.
If you fight us with sword and shield, we will dismember you and leave the remains in the field.
The Barbarians run to the further reaches while our undead legions crawl up on the beaches.
Hail to the Dark and hungry age where the living must fear our rage!
Looks great.

Youre right it does.
I LOVE the Evil Dead movies, if only Sam had had a healthy budget to raise his army.
You've set me thinking of a whole garrison of zombied Roman soldiers now....actually legion sounds better , more of a cinematic ring to it...quick get me Mr. Raimi on the phone now!

Hey ya Rodrigo, nice of you to comment
Your amazing time lapse video have inspired me to try some myself someday soon. Especially as i realised last night that my mac already has Quicktime recording faclities!
Watch this space , as the saying goes.

Dang, the amount of detail you put into this is great! I love his posture, I think that's what gets his attitude across apart from those freaky eyes and tattered clothes. And those arrows sticking out of his neck/shoulder area? Brilliant! Doesn't look like he'll go down without a fight. I would be terrified to take him on. Awesome work, really!

Only thing is I started with a old drawing ..2008 this one, had to blow the dust of first. But no worries more recent stuff coming as soon as I get time to tidy my files folders and pretty the pictures up ready to post.

Oh wow, so you were always good! I cringe when I look at my stuff back from 2008. XD

Hahaha I cringe when I look at my old stuff too (heck i cringe at some of my new stuff too! ) Its normal for an artist to do so, I guess it shows they are on the path to improvement.
Just be grateful its just a drawing and not a tattoo LOL

You're right; it's encouraging. In fact, the worse it looks, the more you've improved. XD
And yes haha that's a wonderful way of looking at it.
